식당이나 가정에서 보편적으로 사용되는 음식물 처리기는 분쇄기가 부착된 형태의 장치이다. 분쇄 방식의 음식물 처리기는 배관이나 분해 필터 등이 막히면 교반기가 파손될 수 있는 문제가 발생된다. 아울러 사용자가 음식물 처리기 내의 수위를 확인하려면 직접 뚜껑을 열어 확인해야 하는 불편함이 생긴다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 이 논문에서는 분쇄방식의 음식물 처리기에 기본적인 IoT 기술을 접목한 장치를 제안한다. 제안 장치는 기존의 음식물 처리기에 실시간 모니터 처리기와 자동 제어 처리기를 추가로 설계 및 구현한다. 제안한 음식물 처리장치는 사용자가 스마트폰을 활용해서 장치의 내부를 모니터링 할 수 있게 한다. 또한 음식물 처리기 내부의 일정한 위치까지 음식물이 채워지면 자동으로 작동이 멈추고 알람을 준다. 제안 시스템을 활용하면 사용자가 음식물 처리기 내부를 편리하게 확인할 수 있으므로 고장을 미리 방지하여 오작동 확률을 낮출 수 있는 장점을 가진다.

This paper describes liquidity evaluation on the horizontal branch pipe connected to a food waste disposer and performance of five disposers marketed. Experimental apparatus for analyzing the five disposers has been introduced to measure vibration, sound level and power consumption of the disposers. Simulator for analyzing the required water velocity to avoid waste jam inside the pipe connected to a food waste disposer has been designed and constructed. The simulator can control some experimental parameters: pipe slope, disposer supply water quantity, food waste materials and operation time of a disposer. Throughout the experimental measurements of the disposers marketed, it is found that the time need to crash food waste is about 20 seconds on the average. At the same flow condition, increase rate of internal water velocity is accelerated as the pipe slope increases. The water velocity inside the pipe having 50 A and slope of 1/50 is 0.26 m/s when the water flowrate to supply the disposer is 16 l pm. Considering the specific gravity and adhesion property of food waste, water velocity of the horizontal branch pipe connected to a food waste disposer need to excess 0.26 m/s at least to avoid the waste blockage inside the pipe.

Recently the market of the food waste disposer has increased. Therefore, many companies in the development of food garbage disposer has been increasing interest. In this study, we used QFD (Quality Function Development) to find out the quality factors for the development of the food waste disposer reflecting the consumer needs. HOQ (House Of Quality) showing the correlation between consumer characteristic and engineering characteristic was written by investigating the consumer needs based on the consumer complaints and survey. In addition, we generated the CTQ (Critical To Quality) reflecting the weighting of the importance of the parts. As the research result, the important quality factors for the food garbage disposer were the grinding capability, drying, and odor emission features. The crushing motor associated with grinding and dehydration appeared as the most important quality factors among the parts. Second thing was the fan motor associated with odor. The findings will be able to contribute to the development of the food waste disposer reflecting the consumer needs.

The use of food waste disposers (FWDs) can be an emerging option to manage organic food wastes in municipal sewage system. The cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of introducing domestic FDWs is conducted to access the allowable disposer market price and the economic impact on food waste management from conventional solid waste management system. If the convenience value of 10,000 won/month is taken into consideration based on survey results, the introduction of FDWs can lead to net economic benefits, allowing the capital cost of disposer up to 1,000,000 won/unit. Without the consideration of convenience value, the introduction of FWDs becomes profitable if the capital cost of disposer is less than 50,000 won/unit. In case that the value of convenience is more than 7,000 won/month, the reduction of food waste management cost is not valid for the introduction of FWDs to be non-profitable. However, if environmental externalities are considered, the proposed system could become breakeven with the cost of food waste management decreases by 54 % (60,000 won per ton).

This study was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of mesophilic fermentative $H_2$ production from food waste which was treated by food waste disposer. It was found that $H_2$ yield and lag phase were affected by particle size of food waste. The $H_2$ yield decreased with increasing particle size while lag phase increased. The maximum $H_2$ yield was found $0.584{\pm}0.03$ mol $H_2$/mol hexose at particle size smaller than 0.30 mm. The $H_2$ production rate was also affected by chemical composition of food waste. The $H_2$ production rate linearly decreased with increasing proteins to carbohydrates ratio(P/C ratio) where the maximum value was $0.031{\pm}0.006$ mol $H_2$/mol hexose h at 0.17.

This article deal with an overview of food waste treatment methods in Korea. Garbage trucks are operated manually by garbage workers who pick up the food wastes after food waste is placed in plastic bags by the road sides. However, there are a lot of problems such as, the smell from the split bags and the leachate, the loss of much energy and the complaints regarding the establishment new rubbish tips from the residents in the surrounding area. It also highlights our society's waste of resources. Although the new pneumatic waste transfer system or the dry method seem to have improved some of the environmental conditions, it still bears some problems, for example, the lack of reuse and recycling of resources and the economic problems. We have been analysed the advantages and disadvantages between the existing food waste system and the pneumatic waste transfer system. And the dry method and disposer were discussed. The results will indicate how the disposer can improve more than the existing systems and will provide the evidence to support.

This paper proposes a modified Ludzack-Ettinger (MLE) type membrane bioreactor (MBR) as a method of treatment for wastewater from food waste disposer. Micro-membrane filtration allows for an extremely low concentration of suspended solids in the effluent. The effluent of the reactor in question is characterized by a relatively high level of non-biodegradable organics, containing a substantial amount of soluble microbial products and biomass. Results obtained in this paper by measurement of membrane fouling are consistent with biomass concentration in the reactor, as opposed to chemical oxygen demand (COD). The MLE process is shown to be effective for the treatment of wastewater with a high COD/N ratio of 20, resulting in are markedly high total nitrogen removal efficiency. Denitrification could be improved at a higher internal recycle ratio. Despite the low concentration of influent phosphorus, the phosphorus concentration of the outflow is seen to be relatively high. This is because outflow phosphorous concentration is related to COD consumption, and the process operates at along solids retention time.

음식쓰레기의 처리가 사회적인 문제로 대두되기 시작한 지도 얼마되지 않았다. 하지만 이의 처리방법에 대해서는 여러해 전부터 많은 논란을 일으켜 온 것이 사실이다. 현재 국내 및 일본에서 크게 관심을 가지고 있는 처리방식으로는 음식쓰레기를 고온으로 건조시키는 방법과 일정량의 담체 (수분조정제)를 반응조의 내부에 담아 놓고 일정기간동안 계속적으로 투입하면서 미생물에 의한 분해가 일어날 수 있도록 하는 소멸방식이 있다. 본 연구실에서는 위의 두가지 방식 중 소멸형의 잔반처리기에 관심을 가지고 이의 효율적인 음식물 분해를 위한 조건설정에 대해 실험을 진행하게 되었고 일차적으로 음식물이 투입되고 난후 미생물과의 직접적인 접촉을 이루어지게 하는 수분조정제를 개발하기 위한 실험을 진행하게 되었다. 이를 위해 수분조정제로 쓰일 물질의 선정과 초기 미생물의 성장을 극대화시킬 수 있는 물질의 첨가에 의한 개선, 탈취 흡착제의 첨가에 의한 반응시 발생하는 악취의 농도 변화 등에 대해 실험을 진행하게 되었고, 이에 대한 양호한 결과를 얻게 되었다.

The food waste that occurs in one year is very high in our country and disposal is expensive. However, disposers for food waste are not used wisely at real life. This is because most of them some kind of problem, for example big volume, complicated construction, high cost, lots of troubles, low energy efficiency and so on. In this study, we propose the new dryer system to decrease drying times by injecting hot air in down the side of the drying bucket. The designed drying bucket has inclined inlet holes down both sides. The inlet holes have variable gradients, we adjust the inlet velocity of the hot air to find a suitable vortex in the drying bucket. We verify the properties of the proposed system though simulation. The results show the proposed dryer system can improve the drying time and save energy for food waste disposal.
