Interesting - I would not have guessed that would work. I don’t totally understand the chemistry of pee stink. But it seems to develop over time. It sounds like in your rig the pee only passed through the char right after urination. It didn’t smell a day after that?
Ah I see! Well you must have been the hero of the hour, giving the ladies a way to pee that wasn’t even gross!
If it’s “permanently locked carbon” then that would imply it’s not available for chemical reactions. And so I don’t see how it can be the browns in your compost. Doesn’t it have to be bioavailable to be composted? If it’s available for reactions, it isn’t permanently sequestered, right?
