Summary
A web capture of the Clivus Multrum New Zealand vendor home page (supplier: Waterless Composting Toilets NZ / WCTNZ). It establishes that composting (waterless) toilets are commercially available in NZ under the Clivus Multrum brand, in a split-system design (waterless pedestal above, below-floor composting chamber) with batch (two rotating chambers) and continuous configurations and a urine-diversion option. It is marketing copy with no quantitative or performance data, so it serves only as a technology-availability and supplier marker for the D03 sanitation theme — the real technical and cost specifications are a gap (RT_223).
Key claims
See key_claims frontmatter (3 claims). ⚠ This is a vendor marketing page — no specifications, capacities, costs or standards-compliance figures are published.
Neobiome Intelligence relevance
- Waterless sanitation + nutrient recovery is a D03 self-sufficiency technology. Composting toilets avoid reticulated blackwater, save water, and close the nutrient loop (compost back to growing) — directly relevant to the water/waste/circular domain and the eco-cycle/nutrient-loop thread in OT_053 and LIT_022. This page confirms commercial NZ availability (Clivus Multrum / WCTNZ) and the batch-vs-continuous + urine-diversion design space. URL_009
- ⚠ No usable NI input. The page publishes no capacity, water-savings, compost-yield, cost or AS/NZS 1546.2 compliance data — so it cannot size, cost or quantify a composting-toilet deployment. Those inputs are deferred to RT_223. Treat this as a supplier/technology pointer only. URL_009

- Clivus Multrum / NZ composting-toilet technical and cost specifications — capacity (persons / uses per day), compost yield and removal interval, water savings vs flush toilet, installed cost, and AS/NZS 1546.2 (composting toilets) / on-site wastewater compliance and Tasman District Council consent treatment — the inputs needed to actually size and cost a composting-toilet deployment for D03. (RT_223; vendor spec sheets + NZS standard + council on-site-wastewater rules.)
- ⚠ Partly delivered by OT_124 (ESR/MoH scoping study FW 24031): the AS/NZS 1546.2 compliance gate, the 15–28% water saving, the inconsistent national consenting picture, and a June-2022 NZ supplier/model census are now sourced. Residual on RT_223 = per-model technical specs (capacity persons/uses·day, compost yield, removal interval) + composting-toilet installed cost (the datasheets/quotes above). Price + cert legs now delivered by URL_026 (WCTNZ storefront — per-model ex-GST equipment prices + AS/NZS 1546.2:2008 certification); numeric sizing + installed cost still open.
