RE: Sol-Char Toilet - Solar Powered Toilet That Scorches Poop Into Biochar
Estimated Capital cost of $3,500 (family), $11,000 (shared) looks pretty high. They did a demo in India as well in 2014. Looks like they are not yet production ready, because of this price challenges and they have been advised by researchers to make production in India or China .
Yeah, that's definitely a high price. I get why this product would be very useful, but the people who can afford this are not the same as the people who need this.
That's a pretty steep price! Hmmm, I do love the concept though. I also think the product needs more productisation; Maybe by doing so, the costs can be further lowered.
I hope they will optimize the design to suit better affordable price🙂
