Sounds like a basic composting toilet to me, bucket with lid plus compost pile in back.

The mission to build a toilet that utilises human poo

Paul Miles

11th August, 2011

The Gates Foundation has just announced a $42 million project over
several years to develop a toilet that doesn't need water, mains power
or sewerage and that will cost next to nothing

Imagine a toilet that takes human waste and converts it into minerals
for fertiliser and clean water, while harvesting energy in the
process."
