Where does human waste go on a bus?
Where does human waste go on a bus? A bus toilet works differently than a home toilet does. A bus toilet does not use water, and it is not hooked up to a sewer. On a bus, urine and feces are held in a holding tank. Bus toilets use a blue formaldehyde product to mask the odor of urine and feces.
Do cruise ships dump human waste?
