Everyone feels the thrill of the journey on the ship amidst the waves of the sea, but the heart tremor is trembling only after thinking of the toilet. You must have heard about toilet waste in flights, but what happens to Potty-Su on a long sea journey? Recently, a viral video on social media opened this secret. A Malaysian worker shared a video of the toilet of offshore rig (sea oil platform), showing holes in the floor. As soon as the potty fell, fish came down in the sea. Seeing this, the tears flew away – someone said “exciting but scary”, so some “murder of the environment!”

The video was shared on Instagram, from where it went viral. The video showed how a small room is made on one edge in a large ship. There is only one hole inside it. Sitting on this, you have to toilet and potty. As soon as your vest falls directly into the sea, the fish gathered below will immediately eat it. It is exciting as well as scary.

This is how work
Now the question is how toilet works on big ships or cruise ships? Most cruise ships have vacuum flush systems. On flushing, the treatment goes down to the treatment plant of the deck below the waste pipes. Here is digested from microbes, then filtered and areded water is made and dumped into the sea. But the rules are strict – from the coast of more than 3 kilometers. A video showed that thousands of gallons sewage from cruise ship are dropped directly into the sea, which is legal but damages the environment. Things are more strict on Navy Ships. There the waste cannot hold long, so it is directly discharged into the sea. But first there is small treatment – the pump is dumped from the pump to the blackwater tank and then. Holding tanks are used on small boats or cell boats, but are several times direct discharged. According to a report, 70% of the boat in the US goes to waterways after West Minimal Treatment.
