Hi Ron

If mechanical vents, also called AAVS (air admittance valves) or studor vents, are allowed in your area then yes you can install a mechanical vent, however, it must remain "readily accessible" for future swap out should it fail over time. This means that the AAV must be installed behind an access panel of some kind, right?

Let me know if that answered your question, OK?

I don't understand. Are you saying you're connection the powder broom groups drain line to another groups wet vent or you're venting the sink and wet venting the toilet?

can I put some kind of inland vent in wall

Yes and no! Yes , if code allows you can vent with a AAV,(air admittance vent) and no you can't hide it in a wall. Code mandates that a AAV be positioned in a place where it can be replaced or
Serviced. However, if you install it inside a wall with a access panel you should be OK. Good luck, Tom

Hi mark, I am wet venting the toilet can the vent be like a island without the aavs or studer vent just a high loop or return pipe going back under the floor then vent under the floor thans ron

Hi Ron

If you are wet venting the toilet using the sink drain vent then you can just keep the AAV under the sink and be done with this. Here, the AAV needs to be at least 6 inches above the PTRAP of the sink and it is "readily accessible" so all is good as long as plumbing codes allow it in your area... see image.

No need for island sink vent or otherwise!
