Campo Italiano | Torres del Paine National Park, Chile
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The toilets at Torres Del Paine were heavily used to the point that they were overflowing and campgrounds had to be closed. TTS offered a solution that could be retrofit rapidly into existing buildings and provided an alternative waste plan that could prolong the life of the builidngs. Waste was diverted to a shallow earthen vault where it began to decompose rapidly. The campground has re-opened with functioning toilets.
