2. Ecosan toilet is a closed system without water and it is an alternative to leach pit toilets. 

3. When the pit of an Ecosan toilet fills up after some time, then it is closed and sealed for about 8-9 months. 

4. In this time the faeces get completely composted to organic manure. In this way the organic waste can be disposed.

6. Also, open-air defecation is prohibited which can cause health problems. Therefore, during large public gatherings like Pandharpur vari mobile toilets like Ecosan are deployed by the government.
