2. Description of the Related Art A conventional sink has a drainage port on the bottom surface of a sink, and a storage chamber of a cylindrical net-shaped draining basket for collecting food waste generated during cooking at the drainage port and a lower portion of this storage chamber. It is common to connect a drain pipe to.

[0003]

In the conventional sink, the debris generated during cooking is poured into the drain port on the bottom of the sink together with water, and the food waste is collected by the drain basket in the drain port. Therefore, until the user takes out the garbage and disposes of it (generally, it takes 1 to 2 days in general), it is left in the net basket as it is. For this reason, food waste in the drainage basket is constantly exposed to drainage water that flows in after hand washing, so that nutrients such as meat juice gradually dissolve in the passing water and kitchen wastewater with high biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). It is easy to become. For this reason, the oil and fat contained in the wastewater is a cause of clogging of the drainage pipe, pollution of rivers, and an increase in the burden on the treatment capacity of sewage treatment plants.

Further, the food waste left in the drainage basket for a long time is decomposed with the passage of time to give off a bad odor, or the hands are soiled when taken out.

The present invention solves the drawbacks of the prior art, remarkably reduces the pollution of kitchen drainage, and enables quick and hygienic garbage treatment, and in particular, the garbage treatment device can be easily installed on an existing sink. It is intended for kitchen waste processing equipment.

[0006]

In the garbage disposal according to the present invention, an opening provided in a sink is divided into a plurality of independent passages to form independent passages, and at least one of the independent openings is disposed in a waste storage tank. It is characterized in that the drying means is communicated with the waste storage tank. This sink can be used, for example, by connecting one of the divided passages to the drainage passage and connecting at least one of the other passages to the waste treatment tank for the input of raw garbage, and then treating the waste separately in the sink. It is possible to configure a garbage processing device that can.

[0007]

According to the present invention, since food waste generated during cooking in the sink can be quickly and at any time discarded into the garbage storage tank, it is possible to avoid that leftover food is exposed to drainage to the sewer pipe for a long time, The pollution of kitchen drainage can be significantly reduced,
Food waste and leftover food can be sanitized in the sink.
