130 gallons and 360 lb.
Energetics of Incineration
8.33 lb in 1 gallon
1 BTU = 1 lb water raised 1 F
160F raise to boil from 60.
1300 BTU till boiling.
3400 BTU per kWh
[1] - 2300 kJ to vaporize one kg
~10MJ for one gallon.
1/3 kWh for one gallon to get it to temperature, then about 3 kW hr per gallon to vaporize.
If have 500W of panels, that could do one person if you have 6 hours of sunlight per day.
Moisture of Poo is 75% - [2]
Thus, Poo itself would require 50W of solar panels to incinerate if liquids are separated.
