Water provides a great odor barrier......that is why 'P' traps were designed to hold water, why residential toilets have built in 'P' traps.
Water is a 'solvent'---------natural
Water is heavy and will move boulders so and poop/TP will get carried out of holding tank if one allows level to be high enough
I just find 'chemicals' unnecessary... and after ALL the 'pros' for chemicals posted -----STILL find them unnecessary.
