There are many options. a 12 volt motorized DC ball valve, stainless or brass. Motorized so that the switch opens it and when the switch is off and this power is off it auto closes.

Hi KC, Great minds think alike !!! I added the same feature to my build, (with manual drain) but I also added a camera so that I could monitor when the tank had drained !!!!! Don't tell anyone, but My waste water tank is also connected to my urinal !!!!!! I will forward a video at later date. Message from Sprinter builder in Northern Ireland !!!!
Do you find any issue with smell or other issue with your urine waste added to your gray water? I doubt there would be, but does depend on the ratio of each.
Some compost toilets allow for the urine waste to be drained into an appropriate tank (or water source such as on a boat), which is convenient to not have to carry and dump it. It is something I am thinking about in the planning of my next vehicle build. Curious to hear how this is working for you.
thank you for info, would you provide a link of the valve that you have used, thank you.
