ATLANTA (AP) It’s not too often that tours of new buildings start with the toilets. But they’re a big part of a different kind of building in Atlanta.
And so, Shan Arora, who oversees Georgia Tech’s Kendeda Building, troops visitors pretty quickly to a ground floor bathroom where the toilet begins to hum, and then foam. There’s no conventional flushing, with the toilets consuming only a teaspoon of water per use. And the waste is composted in digesters in the basement instead of being piped to a treatment plant.
