RCF has already replaced conventional toilet system in coaches with green toilets in various trains including Gwalior-Indore Express and Lucknow -Mumbai CST Pushpak Express.

"Three more rakes of Indore Jammu Tawi Malwa Express, Nizammudin-Indore Intercity Express and Varanasi-Mumbai CST Mahanagari Express have been targeted for this month," he said.
Railways has been laying emphasis on replacing open discharge toilets with green toilets with an aim to dispose of human excreta in an environment-friendly way.

 
The creation of bio-toilets is based on technology provided by Gawalior-based Defence Research and Development Establishment. Under this system, anaerobic bacteria are used to convert human excreta into disinfected liquid, that is then discharged on the tracks.
