There may be solid sediment that has not settled down in the solid-liquid separation process of the collection tank 60 in the accommodated separation water, and the filter 97 The filter 97 is rotated by the filter motor 93 to generate a centrifugal force so that the solids can be separated from the filter 97. [ Through this filtering process, the separated water in the filter tank 99 can be discharged to the sewer or the like in the form of drain water through the drain pipe 95 where the solid is removed and the union can be used. In this way, the separation of the solid-liquid separated water is not directly discharged to the outside, but the filtering process is performed once more, so that the treatment of the food can be more complete and the pollution can be reduced by discharging clean water to the outside.

The discharge portion 108 is formed in the lower portion of the filter portion 90 in the filter tank 99 and includes an inverted conical collection tube 100 for collecting the solid matter composed of the filtered decomposition and a solid matter composed of the filtered decomposition, (105) for discharging solids to the water tank (110) when a predetermined amount is collected in the water tank (100).
