化学化妆品 日化用品


Explanation:
的确,从字面上来看,似乎是“化学厕所”,这是我们常理解的chemical和toilet两个词,而实际上,行业中已有附着其意义,准确表达即,化学化妆品或日化用品,当然,有时也说化学掩臭剂。

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_toilet(其他资源也可查)

A chemical toilet is a toilet using chemicals to deodorize the waste instead of simply storing it in a hole, or piping it away to a sewage treatment plant. These toilets are most commonly found on airplanes, trains, caravans and motorhomes, identified with a blue-colored dye in the bowl water. (In the United States and Australia this blue liquid formula is generally called "Anotec".) An even simpler chemical toilet consists of a seat on a container or bucket of water, with a solution of chemicals used to disinfect or/and deodorize. These are sometimes found on inter-city buses or in homes where indoor plumbing is not available. Portable toilets are universally chemical toilets.
