we-pee urine separator sighting in Portugal
Some feedback just in of a sighting of a we-pee separator in Portugal (in an "Adubo de compostagem") ... Here it has been used in a waterless composting toilet on a remote mountainous site in Portugal.

Our first Urine Separator Sighting
One of our earliest customer photos — the first feedback we received after launching a campaign to find out where our separators were ending up. "I have a brother and nephew living off-grid in Illinois, USA. Made this as a gift so they wouldn't have to go outside in the winter. It contains a bucket for the poo and a 5-gallon jug for the urine." — Marty, USA Thank you, Marty. A neat little composting box — and what a thoughtful present. Sub-zero Illinois winters and a long walk to the outhouse is no fun for anyone. This was one...
