Description

{Foods waste processing device}

The present invention relates to a food garbage disposal apparatus, and more particularly, to a food garbage disposal apparatus for easily discharging treated food garbage that has been treated without reducing the efficiency of pulverization and drying of food garbage, The present invention relates to a food garbage disposal apparatus that is improved by supplementing the problems of the previously-registered Patent Registration No. 10-1375322.

The description of the technical background of the present invention is based on the prior art patent registration No. 10-1375322 previously registered by the inventor of the present invention. In the case of food waste discharged from a home or a restaurant, most of the food waste contains a large amount of water. It is well known that in order to reduce the amount of food waste, it is recommended to use a fixed quantity bag which contains only food waste or dispose of the food after crushing, drying and treating.

In recent years, development of methods for disposing of food waste, processing apparatuses, and the like have been actively pursued.
