A freezing toilet is a kind of dry toilet based on electricity.[1]

Freezing toilets were developed in Sweden in the 1970s, and from there the production moved to Finland.[2][3]

Freezing toilets work by electricity, as they are plugged into the wall. It doesn’t need sanitation, ventilation or chemicals to work. The function of freezing toilets is based on freezing. The contents freeze in a short time stopping bacteria from growing and keeping it odourless. Consequently, it doesn’t need mixtures or other chemicals.[4]

Freezing toilets can be moved, as they only need a plug to work. The machine consumes as much electricity as a 40W bulb.
