A black tank arrangement is provided having a selectively operable macerator for recirculating fluid adjacent the black tank outlet back toward the black tank inlet, so as to flush or spray waste from that inlet toward the outlet. Selecting the fluid transfer components to be mountable adjacent the end face of the black tank near the black tank outlet allows the invention to be retrofit into previously installed black tanks in vehicles. Operation of the macerator can be manual, via a remote switch held down by the user for a given time period, and/or automatic, in sequence with toilet operation.
