High efficiency evaporative/dehydration toilets

An evaporative toilet comprising:

• an enclosure including a toilet seat area defining an opening;
• a removable ferromagnetic pan disposed within the enclosure, the pan being positioned, sized and configured to collect both solids and liquids deposited into the enclosure through the opening;
• an induction heating element magnetically coupled to the ferromagnetic pan, the induction heating element inducing eddy currents in the pan that heat the solids and liquids in the pan to a temperature within a temperature range that kills pathogens in the solids to thereby sanitize the solids, and helps to evaporate the liquids but is not hot enough to incinerate the solids;
• and
• an active air flow element that draws air into the enclosure from the toilet seat area, circulates the air within the enclosure, and expels moisture-landed air evaporated from the liquids through an air outlet;
• wherein the air outlet is in communication with said enclosure, said air outlet exhausting the odors and moisture-laden air from said enclosure to thereby vent evaporated water vapor from the liquids and solids in a sanitary manner;
• wherein the enclosure defines an access port therein, the access port and enclosure being configured to enable an end user to remove the pan containing sanitized matter from the enclosure through the access port.
