Yes that is a composting toilet. The basic composting toilet is a 5 gallon bucket housed in something that looks like a regular toilet. Instead of flushing you cover your doings with sawdust, allot of saw dust until the bucket is three quarters full. Then it is put into a compost pile and surrounded by hay bails and more loose hay on top. Then you do this process for a year then let it sit for another year or until you start to notice earth worms are enjoying it. Once the earthworms show up it is nutritious soil and is indistinguishable from another type of composted soil. If done correctly with lots of soil and hay, the process should be odorless but, of course, some people are lazy and don't do it thoroughly.
