The U.S.’s $13 Billion Aircraft Carrier Has a Toilet Problem
The toilets on America’s two newest carriers clog frequently, causing problems throughout the ship.
The ships use a scaled-up version of airliner toilets, using vacuum power to evacuate human waste.
As a result, the system must regularly be cleaned with an expensive acid solution that costs $400,000 per use.
