摘要:
An organic waste processing method which is capable of large-amount processing and 24-hour continuous processing and also capable of minimizing installation and processing costs; and a device therefor. The device comprises a plurality of linearly arranged approximately inverted frusto-conical processing tanks (3, 3A, 3B, 3C), motors (17) installed below the respective processing tanks, rotary shafts (19) supportably extending vertically through the respective processing tanks and driven for rotation by the motors (17), and agitating vanes (21) supported on each rotary shaft (19) for mixing aerobic microorganisms (1) and an organic waste (2), wherein a more-than-storable amount of organic waste (2) is charged into the upstream processing tank (3) and a portion of the organic waste (2) is subjected to the centrifugal force from the agitating vanes (21) to flow out through an outflow port (14) in the upper region of the peripheral wall of the processing tank (3) into an inlet port (9) in the upper region of the processing tank (3A) adjacently disposed downstream. This operation is repeated according to the number of processing tanks and a large amount of organic waste (2) is continuously aerobically fermented for conversion into compost.
