The air circulation passage 15 communicates the garbage processing unit 5, the condensing unit 8, and the air blowing means 16 (configured with a fan or an air pump) in a circulating manner. The outlet 17 opens to the garbage processing unit 5 and the outlet 18 faces the lower part of the storage tank 10 toward the water 9 stored in the storage tank 10. The air circulation passage 15 </ b> B is a passage on the inflow side to the garbage processing unit 5. The inlet 19 faces the upper part of the storage tank 10, and the outlet 20 opens to the garbage processing unit 5. The blower means 16 is provided in the middle of the blower circulation passage 15 </ b> A and sucks air from the garbage processing unit 5.

  The heating means 21 for heating the air from the condensing unit 8 is provided in the middle of the air circulation passage 15B, and a constant temperature adjustment may be performed using a general sheathed heater or mica heater, but a PTC heater is used. Automatic adjustment may be performed. Moreover, the water level detection part 22 provided in the condensing part 8 for detecting the water level of the stored water 9 is composed of an electrode type or float type liquid level detection switch. In addition, the auxiliary heater 23 for raising the temperature inside the food processing unit 5 may be adjusted to a certain temperature using a general sheathed heater or mica heater, but is automatically adjusted using a PTC heater. Also good.

  The ozone supply means 24 includes an ozone generator 25, an air supply means 26 that supplies air to the ozone generator 25, and an air blowing circulation passage 15 </ b> B on the inflow side of the ozone gas 27 diluted with air to the garbage treatment unit 5. And a jet outlet 28 for jetting out. The ozone generator 25 uses a silent discharge method in which oxygen is generated by flowing a high voltage generator or an ultraviolet lamp method in which oxygen is changed to ozone by the wavelength of ultraviolet light. The air supply means 26 is configured by a turbo fan or an air pump capable of high-pressure air blowing to overcome the internal resistance of the air circulation passage 15.

  The air supply to the air supply means 26 is a minute flow rate with respect to the air flowing through the air circulation circuit 15, but because the garbage processing unit 5 and the condensation unit 8 are closed circuits, A part of the air is taken out from the upstream side of the ejection port 28. Moreover, the jet nozzle 28 has a nozzle shape so that the ozone gas 27 can easily diffuse into the air circulation passage 15B. The components of the ozone supply means 24 and the air circulation passage 15B are made of ozone-resistant material (for example, stainless steel, Teflon (registered trademark), or glass) by using ozone.

  In the figure, air 29 flowing through the air circulation passage 15, air bubbles 30 generated when the air 29 is supplied from the outlet 18 of the air circulation passage 15 </ b> A to the water 9 stored in the storage tank 10, and the garbage processing unit 5. The open air intake means 31 provided in the upper part and the open / close valve 32 that opens the external air intake means 31 and takes in the external air from the external air intake means 31 when the water 9 stored in the condensing unit 8 is replaced are shown. By opening the on-off valve 32, the garbage processing unit 5 can be prevented from becoming negative pressure, and the stored water 9 can be smoothly drained from the drain pipe 14.

  The operation of the garbage drying processing apparatus configured as described above will be described.

  First, when garbage generated in the sink 1 of the kitchen is put into the crushing device 2 and the water 9 is poured, the crushing device 2 starts driving. The crushing device 2 crushes the garbage, mixes with water 9 to form a solid-liquid, and this solid-liquid flows into the solid-liquid separation device 3.

  The solid-liquid separator 3 separates the juice and water 9 adhering to the crushed garbage and drains it from the solid-liquid drain pipe 4 to the sewage, while the crushed garbage is separated and discharged to the garbage processing unit 5. At the same time, the blowing means 16 forms a flow of air 29 (for example, 10 to 100 L / min) that circulates between the garbage processing unit 5 and the condensing unit 8 through the blowing circulation passage 15.

  Further, the geared motor 7 is driven periodically (for example, at intervals of 15 minutes) to rotate the stirring means 6 (about 1 minute) to stir the crushed garbage. Then, the heating means 21 provided in the inflow side air circulation passage 15B heats the air 29, and the dried air 29 whose temperature has risen and the relative humidity has decreased is discharged from the outlet 20 of the inflow side air circulation passage 15B to the garbage processing section. Eject to 5 to dry the garbage. In addition, since the air 29 spouted to the garbage processing part 5 flows through the inner surface of the garbage processing part 5 and raises the temperature, it prevents the condensed water from adhering to the inner surface of the garbage processing part 5. .

  Further, the operations of the crushing device 2, the solid-liquid separation device 3, the air blowing means 16, and the heating means 21 are controlled by a control means (not shown).

  The air 29 containing a large amount of steam generated from the garbage is sucked into the blowing means 16 and flows into the inlet 17 of the blowing circulation passage 15A on the outflow side. The air 29 containing a large amount of steam is ejected from the outlet 18 of the outflow side air circulation passage 15A facing the lower part of the storage tank 10 of the condensing unit 8 toward the water 9 stored in the storage tank 10, The air bubbles 30 rise and flow toward the stored water 9 surface. At that time, the stored water 9 is cooled by water, and the temperature of the air 29 is quickly lowered, the saturated vapor pressure of the air 29 is lowered, and the vapor in the air is condensed. The condensed water is mixed with the stored water 9 directly or after adhering to the inner surface of the condensing unit 8. At this time, since the air 29 passes through the water 9 stored as bubbles 30, odor components (for example, trimethylamine, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, etc.) dissolved in the water 9 contained in the water vapor generated from the garbage are Since the contact area between the stored water 9 and the air 29 (the surface area of the bubbles) is very large, it dissolves sufficiently in the stored water 9, so that odor can be reliably suppressed.

  Further, the odor component (for example, methyl mercaptan) that does not dissolve in the water 9 is sent to the garbage treatment unit 5 as it is from the inlet 19 of the air circulation passage 15B together with the air 29 from which the water vapor has been removed. The air 29 containing an odor component that does not dissolve in the water 9 is mixed with the air 29 that blows out ozone gas 27 from the jet outlet 28 provided in the middle of the air circulation passage 15B by the ozone supply means 24 and blows it to the garbage disposal unit 5. However, the odor component which does not dissolve in the water 9 is deodorized. The garbage processing unit 5 is supplied with deodorized dry air so that the surrounding environment is not deteriorated when the dried garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying is taken out.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, since the odor component that does not dissolve in the water 9 is mixed with the ozone gas 27 in the air circulation passage 15B, the odor component that does not dissolve in the water 9 is reduced, deodorized, and garbage. Since the deodorized dry air is sent to the processing unit 5, it is possible to prevent the surrounding environment from deteriorating when taking out the dry garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying.

  In the present embodiment, since a part of the ozone gas 27 flowing into the air circulation passage 15B is ejected to the garbage processing unit 5, ozone is also supplied to the air 29 containing a large amount of steam generated from the garbage. Deodorization can be promoted.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, the air supply means 26 which supplies air to the ozone generator 25 and the ozone generator 25 is provided, ozone is conveyed from the ozone generator 25 by this air supply means 26 as the ozone gas 27, and garbage is disposed. Since the ozone gas 27 is mixed in the air 29 blown to the processing unit 5, the air supply means 26 supplies a stable amount of air to the ozone generator 25, and the ozone concentration is kept constant. It is possible to appropriately reduce the deodorized odor component and deodorize it so that the surrounding environment is not deteriorated when the dried garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying is taken out.

  In the present embodiment, a stable air amount is supplied to the ozone generator 25 by the air supply means 26, and the ozone generation amount is kept constant. Therefore, the concentration in the air that causes adverse effects on the human body (Japan) According to the Japan Society for Occupational Health, the ozone concentration is 0.1 to 0.3 ppm, which is a respiratory irritation. Therefore, even if the ozone gas 27 leaks out, it must be set to a lower concentration). It is possible to prevent the surrounding environment from deteriorating when the dried garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying is taken out.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, the ventilation means 16 is contained in the water vapor | steam which generate | occur | produces from the garbage of the garbage processing part 5 by providing in the middle of the ventilation circulation path 15A of the outflow side from the garbage processing part 5. Since the odor component is sucked into the blowing means 16 and sent to the condensing unit 8 and the garbage processing unit 5 is maintained in a negative pressure state, the odor leaks from the garbage processing unit 5 during the drying process of the garbage. Can be prevented.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, the condensation part 8 is provided with the water level detection part 22 which detects the water level of the stored water 9, and when the output of this water level detection part 22 exceeds predetermined value, the stored water 9 is drained. Since water is once again accumulated from the water supply pipe 12 after draining from the water 14, the amount of water 9 stored in the condensing unit 8 can be kept at a storage amount suitable for condensation, and deterioration of the condensing capacity can be prevented. Further, since the water 9 stored in the condensing unit 8 is replaced when the water level becomes high, the temperature of the stored water 9 and the concentration of the odor component are controlled within a certain range, the condensing capacity of the condensing unit 8 is stabilized, and the odor is removed. Can be suppressed.

  In the present embodiment, the ozone supply means 24 drains the water 9 stored in the condensing unit 8 from the drain pipe 14 and then stores the water 9 from the water supply pipe 12 again. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the amount of air blown to the garbage processing unit 5 from decreasing and the ozone concentration to increase, thereby deteriorating and damaging the air circulation passage 15 and the garbage processing unit 5. .

  In the present embodiment, the ozone supply means 24 stops the supply of the ozone gas 27 during the operation of taking out the dried garbage from the garbage processing unit 5, so that the garbage from the air circulation passage 15 is stopped. The ozone gas 27 sent to the processing unit 5 is prevented from being released to the outside from the garbage processing unit 5, and the surrounding environment is removed by the ozone gas 27 when taking out the dry garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying. Can be made not to worsen.

  In the present embodiment, the air 29 containing a large amount of steam generated from garbage is not air-cooled by outside air but directly water-cooled with water 9 having a high thermal conductivity. Can be increased. Specifically, even when a large amount of garbage is input from the solid-liquid separator 3 to the garbage processing unit 5 and a large amount of steam is generated in the garbage processing unit 5, a large amount of steam is condensed in the condensing unit 8. Therefore, a large amount of garbage can be dried in a short time.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the condensed air (saturated vapor pressure) 29 flows into the inlet 19 of the blowing circulation passage 15B on the inflow side to the garbage processing unit 5 and the circulation of the air 29 is formed. On the other hand, the odor component (for example, trimethylamine) contained in the steam generated from the garbage is dissolved in the condensed water or the stored water 9, so that the odor can be suppressed. Moreover, since the condensed water acidified with the sulfur and nitrogen derived from garbage is diluted from the water 9 stored in large quantities compared with this condensed water, there is no problem.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, the water level detection part 22 is controlled by a control means (not shown) so that the ventilation means 16 may be stopped when detecting a water level, and thereby the liquid of the water 9 stored in the storage tank 10 The surface can be stabilized and the detection accuracy of the water level detector 22 can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, if the condensed water continues to be mixed with the stored water 9, the water level of the stored water 9 naturally increases, so the water level detection unit 22 detects the water level as appropriate (for example, every 15 minutes) and detects the water level. When the output of the unit 22 exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the open / close valve 32 is opened and outside air is taken in from the outside air intake means 31, so that the garbage processing unit 5, the air circulation passage 15 and the storage tank 10 are negatively pressured. The water 9 stored by opening the on-off valve 13 can be smoothly drained from the drain pipe 14. Next, after closing the on-off valve 13, the on-off valve 11 is opened, water 9 is again stored in the storage tank 10 from the water supply pipe 12, and the on-off valve 32 is closed to complete the water 9 replacement smoothly.

  Further, in this embodiment, the catalyst deodorizing unit is unnecessary, the catalyst need not be heated to 400 ° C. or higher, the heating means 21 may have a small capacity, and the heat insulation may have a simple configuration, so that the cost can be reduced. Can be planned.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, since the air 29 does not become high temperature more than necessary, generation | occurrence | production of a large amount of odor components by the high temperature thermal decomposition of garbage can be prevented.

  Further, in the present embodiment, during the period in which the stirring means 6 is rotating and stirring the garbage, the air blowing means 16 is controlled by the control means (not shown) so as to be stopped by the stirring of the stirring means 6. Dry fine garbage can be prevented from being scattered and carried to the circulating air. As a result, fine dry garbage can be prevented from adhering to the condensing unit 8, the blowing unit 16, and the heating unit 21 without being accidentally discharged from the garbage processing unit 5.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, when the garbage discharged | emitted by the garbage processing part 5 progresses, the vapor | steam generate | occur | produced from garbage will reduce and naturally the generation | occurrence | production of the condensed water in the condensation part 8 will also reduce. Therefore, when the output of the water level detection unit 22 does not increase for a predetermined period (for example, 3 hours), it can be determined that the garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 has been sufficiently dried and reduced, and the geared motor 7, the air blowing means 16, and the heating means. Energy saving can be achieved by controlling by means of a control means (not shown) to stop 21.

  In the present embodiment, when the water 9 supplied from the water supply pipe 12 is tap water, an edge cutting configuration such as a cistern is provided so that the water 9 stored in the storage tank 10 does not flow backward to the tap water supply side. It is also possible to provide it.

  The operation of the garbage drying processing apparatus configured as described above will be described.

  The ozone generator 25 is supplied with dry air 29 from which a large amount of water vapor has been removed by the condensing unit 8 by the air supply means 26, and into the water 9 by the ozone gas 27 pushed out from the ozone generator 25 by the dry air 29. The undissolved odor component is appropriately reduced and deodorized, so that the surrounding environment is not deteriorated when the dried garbage in the garbage processing unit 5 or the garbage in the middle of drying is taken out.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, since the air 29 is directly sent to the ozone generator 25 by the air supply means 26 provided in the middle of the air circulation passage 15 and no dedicated air blowing means is required, an increase in cost can be prevented. .

  In addition, the ozone generator 25 is supplied with the air 29 dehumidified by reducing the dew point temperature to the temperature of the water 9 in the condensing unit 8, so that the ozone generation efficiency can be prevented from being lowered.

  A dehumidifier 33 is provided in the air circulation passage 15B on the upstream side of the ozone generator 25 to remove the moisture from the air 29 and dry it. The air 29 having a low dew point temperature is sent to the ozone generator 25 to remove ozone. It is also possible to improve the generation efficiency. Further, the dehumidifier 33 at this time can cool the air 29 using a Peltier element or the like.

(Embodiment 3)
FIG. 3 shows a garbage drying processing apparatus according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  In the present embodiment, the difference from the first embodiment is that the condensing unit 8 includes a condensing temperature detecting unit 34 that detects the temperature of the stored water 9, and the output of the condensing temperature detecting unit 34 exceeds a predetermined value. In this case, after the stored water 9 is drained from the drain pipe 14, the water 9 is stored again from the water supply pipe 12. The condensation temperature detection unit 34 is composed of a thermocouple or a thermistor, and monitors the water temperature of the stored water 9 directly or by measuring a part of the outer wall of the storage tank 10.

  The operation of the garbage drying processing apparatus configured as described above will be described.

  When the output of the condensing temperature detector 34 that detects the water temperature of the stored water 9 exceeds a predetermined value, the condensing unit 9 collects the water 9 from the drain pipe 14 after draining the stored water 9 and then collects the water from the water supply pipe 12 again. The amount of water 9 stored in 8 is kept at a storage amount and water temperature suitable for condensation.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the condensation temperature detector 34 can grasp the timing of replacement of the water 9 stored in the condenser 8 and supply fresh water 9. A decrease in condensation capacity can be prevented.

  Further, since the water 9 stored in the condensing unit 8 is replaced when the water level becomes high, the temperature of the stored water 9 and the concentration of the odor component are controlled within a certain range, the condensing capacity of the condensing unit 8 is stabilized, and the odor is removed. Can be suppressed.

The liquid level is stable, and the detection accuracy of the condensation temperature detector 34 can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, if the condensed water continues to be mixed with the stored water 9, the water temperature of the stored water 9 naturally increases, so the condensation temperature detection unit 34 detects the water temperature as appropriate (for example, every 15 minutes) and condenses. When the output of the temperature detection unit 34 exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the on-off valve 32 is opened and outside air is taken in from the outside air intake means 31, so that the garbage processing unit 5, the air circulation passage 15 and the storage tank 10 are in the interior. It is possible to prevent negative pressure and smoothly drain the water 9 stored by opening the on-off valve 13 from the drain pipe 14.
