While it's opaque in the usa, at least it's not ambiguous.

Bryce, here in Australia, we use a lot of UK terms (and frown on the
horrid American ones creeping into our vocabulary). But no one here uses
Elsan.

There is no wikipedia page (yet!) for Elsan. Appears its a brand name,
I'd prefer not to use a brand name if possible.
This (very long) discussion started with complaints that
waste=chemical_toilet is almost unused. Chemical_toilet_disposal_point
is very long !

I agree with the 'Elsan' being a brand name .. like Asprin. Something open source people try to avoid.

----------------------------------
And it is not really a 'disposal' .. but a 'collection' point.

Disposal implying the place where something is permanently placed at the end of its life?

Collection - where something is placed for removal to another place?
