Description

[0001] Apparatus for recycling food waste [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a food waste disposal apparatus, and more particularly, to a food waste disposal apparatus capable of removing water from a collected large amount of food waste to facilitate post treatment.

Generally, methods of treating food wastes or animal wastes include incineration, landfilling, or purification and discharging the wastewater into a river, or fermenting it with a fermentation apparatus to recycle it as compost or animal feed.

However, the incineration method has a disadvantage in that the food waste contains too much water and therefore consumes too much fuel and is inefficient.

In addition, the method of discharging to landfill or river has a problem of causing water pollution due to the eutrophication of the river due to the contamination of groundwater by the leachate and the lack of purification facilities or the lack of treatment ability.

On the other hand, the method of fermentation and treatment is more effective because it can be used as feed for livestock such as compost or chicken.

In the past, most of the food waste has been abandoned as it is, and only a part of the food waste is used as a livestock feed such as pigs. Such food waste is greatly increased in emissions due to the improvement of the eating habits due to economic growth, and a great deal of time and expense is consumed in the treatment. In addition, since food waste contains a large amount of water, when left in a garbage dump for a long time, a bad odor is generated and leachate is generated, thereby polluting the surrounding environment and providing various habitats such as flies and mosquitoes.

In recent years, various treatment processes and devices have been developed to recycle food waste, which is becoming a serious social problem.

For example, there is disclosed a method and apparatus for grinding food waste, drying it, and decomposing it using microorganisms into livestock feed or fertilizer. Korean Utility Model Registration Laid-Open No. 1997-54738 discloses an apparatus for decomposing food waste by using microorganisms at a food waste disposal site such as a general household or a restaurant to produce compost or to dry the food waste if necessary.

Korean Patent Publication No. 1996-10894 discloses a feed manufacturing apparatus for collecting food waste in a refrigerated state and pulverizing the same by means of washing, compressing and crushing, and mixing additives to make livestock and aquaculture feed have.

However, such conventional food waste disposal apparatuses are disadvantageous in that their productivity is lowered because they are small in scale and can not handle a large amount of food waste. In addition, the quality of livestock feed or compost made from recycled food waste was far less than that of commercially available animal feed or fertilizer produced by the factory, and its utility value was not found.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a food garbage disposing device capable of effectively processing a large amount of food waste generated to solve the above problems and producing high quality livestock feed or fertilizer suitable for use in livestock .
