Dad has a Cletis Multrum(composting toilet) in the garage for the office space above.
It was a cheaper alternative to permits, plumbing, and digging.
Measures about 4x8 with a couple ports on the side, and a quiet fan vents to the outside.

Basically it requires putting in leaves and turning the material a couple times a year.
2-4 times a year you attach a hose to a bucket, plug in the pump, and get clean swamp water out of the bottom. Toss this on the plants with the rain.

With 4-10 people above, it eventually had to get pumped out with a septic truck for a couple hundred after about five years.
