Abstract

A device for treating human and animal dejecta with microwaves includes a duct for conveying dejecta material, a microwave applicator surrounding the duct in an irradiation zone, and a microwave generator coupled to the microwave applicator. A driven transporter screw, provided in the duct upstream of the microwave applicator, moves the dejecta material through the duct. An inlet, coupled to an upstream zone of the duct, feeds dejecta material to be treated into the duct adjacent the screw. A vapor extractor is coupled to duct immediately downstream of the irradiation zone to receive treated dejecta material immediately on leaving the irradiation zone. A condensation vat is connected to the extractor and vented through a chimney having a filter.
