The collection device control unit 220 can control the overall operation of the food waste weighing device 200 and more specifically determines whether to open the upper door 15 according to the payment means tagged to the payment unit 20 And calculates a billing amount of the food waste discharged to the collection box 10 when the upper door 15 is opened and generates a white list and a black list according to whether the billing amount is paid from the payment means can do. For this purpose, the collection device control unit 220 may include a payment means comparison unit 221, a billing amount calculation unit 222, a whitelist generation unit 223, and a blacklist generation unit 224. [

The settlement unit comparing unit 221 can check whether the settlement unit tagged in the settlement unit is included in the whitelist. The settlement means is a means provided so that the exporter can settle the amount of the food waste corresponding to the weight of the discharged food waste at the time of discharging the food waste to the collecting device 200 for the food waste, and includes identification information for identifying the payment means , And the billing amount is associated with an account in which payment can be made, for example, it may be in the form of a card. Hereinafter, it is assumed that the payment means is in the form of a card. The settlement unit comparing unit 221 can obtain the card number and the validity period of the settlement unit tagged to the settlement unit 20 by the exporter. Then, the payment means comparison unit 221 can check whether the acquired information is included in the whitelist. At this time, the white list may include information on the payment means. For example, the whitelist may include a card number, an expiration date, an end use date and the like. A detailed description thereof will be given later.

The payment unit comparison unit 221 may control the upper door 15 to be opened through the opening and closing drive unit 230 when the payment unit 20 is included in the whitelist. In this case, the discharger can discharge the food waste to the collection box 10 through the opened upper door 15.

On the other hand, if the payment unit comparing unit 221 does not include the payment unit tagged to the payment unit 20 in the whitelist, it can check whether the payment unit tagged to the payment unit 20 is included in the black list. At this time, the black list may include information on the payment means. For example, the blacklist may include a card number, an expiration date, an end date and time, an unpaid charge amount, and the like. A detailed description thereof will be given later.

If the black list includes the payment means tagged to the payment unit 20, the payment means comparison unit 221 checks the unpaid charge amount for the corresponding payment means stored in the black list, And information on the amount of unpaid charges. The settlement unit comparison unit 221 can control the opening of the upper door 15 through the opening and closing drive unit 230 when the settlement server 300 receives the notification that settlement of the unpaid charge amount is completed by the settlement unit 300. [ On the other hand, when the payment means comparison unit 221 receives a notification from the payment server 300 that the settlement of the unpaid charge amount has failed, the upper door 15 is kept closed and the alarm unit It is possible to output a garbage disposal prohibition alarm through the time.
