A water closet for disposing of human waste includes a septic system, a toilet, a floor, and an enclosure. The septic system includes a primary chamber, a secondary chamber spaced a distance laterally from the primary chamber, a fluid communication member extending between the primary chamber and the secondary chamber, and an outlet member extending away from the secondary chamber. The septic system further includes an anaerobic bacterial treatment that processes excretory material disposed in the primary chamber into effluent which is transferred out of the primary chamber via the fluid communication member and into the secondary chamber before it is transferred out of the secondary chamber via an outlet member that extends towards either a leach field or a third chamber. |

1. A water closet, comprising:
a septic system comprising:
a primary chamber having a top, a bottom wall, and at least one side wall connected to and extending between the top and the bottom wall to at least partially surround a first cavity, the primary chamber having a depth and a width and a first axis extending between the top and the bottom wall, the top defining a first opening and the at least one side wall defining a second opening positioned between the top and the bottom wall, the primary chamber constructed of at least one fluid-impermeable material, wherein the depth of the primary chamber is within a range from 5 to 20 times the width;a secondary chamber, spaced a distance laterally from the primary chamber, the secondary chamber having a top, a bottom wall, and at least one side wall connected to and extending between the top and the bottom wall to at least partially surround a second cavity, and a second axis extending between the top and the bottom wall, the top defining a first opening and the at least one side wall defining a second opening and a third opening, the second opening and the third opening positioned between the top and the bottom wall, with the third opening spaced a distance vertically from the second opening, the first and second axes being substantially parallel, the secondary chamber constructed of at least one fluid-impermeable material;a fluid communication member extending between the second opening of the primary chamber and the second opening of the secondary chamber, the fluid communication member configured to allow an effluent to transfer from the first cavity of the primary chamber to the second cavity of the secondary chamber;an outlet member extending outwardly from the third opening of the secondary chamber, the outlet member configured to allow the effluent to transfer out of the second cavity of the secondary chamber when the effluent has reached a predetermined level within the secondary chamber; and a toilet positioned over the top of the primary chamber of the septic system and having an outlet in communication with the first opening of the primary chamber to direct excretory material into the first cavity of the primary chamber. |
