Abstract: The device for eliminating food waste containing large quantity of vegetable and animal fibrous material, proteins, carbohydrate and calcium, comprises a mixing basin installed in a box and having an introduction hole with a door (9), a rotating shaft having mixing blades, a hot water tank equipped with a heating device, a spraying device equipped with spray nozzles, a perforated plate integrated at a bottom of the mixing basin, and a water outlet tank installed under the perforated plate so that used water produced in the mixing basin is collected in the water outlet tank and then evacuated. The device for eliminating food waste containing large quantity of vegetable and animal fibrous material, proteins, carbohydrate and calcium, comprises a mixing basin installed in a box and having an introduction hole with a door (9), a rotating shaft having mixing blades, a hot water tank equipped with a heating device, a spraying device equipped with spray nozzles, a perforated plate integrated at a bottom of the mixing basin, a water outlet tank installed under the perforated plate so that used water produced in the mixing basin is collected in the water outlet tank and then evacuated, a pipe having an upper terminal part contacting with mixing basin, an overflow tube contacting with the upper terminal part of the mixing basin so that odors and wastewater is evacuated by the overflow tube and the pipe, and a touch control panel (14) in which functions are regulated for operating the device for eliminating food wastes. The rotating shaft is installed on horizontal axis of the mixing basin, and is operated by a gearmotor. The heating device is installed near the mixing basin for heating the basin. The spray nozzles are disposed on a supplying tube at regular intervals, where the tube is connected to a microbe tank installed in the box so that the microbes are sprayed in the mixing basin along with hot water. The spraying device is installed in an upper part of the mixing basin. An internal space of the overflow tank is cleaned with hot water using a washing device, and an internal space of the water outlet tank is cleaned with high pressure air using a cleaning device. The panel is placed on a top plate of the box protecting the mixing basin. Washing nozzles are arranged near a front edge and a back edge of the water outlet tank so that the internal space of the mixing basin and water outlet tank are cleaned by spraying hot water in the hot water tank with high pressure. An air pump is connected to the supplying tube on which the spray nozzles are arranged at regular intervals so that the internal space of the mixing basin and the water outlet tank is cleaned using high pressure air. The touch control panel displays a menu having rubrics corresponding to the operations to be carried out by device components. The menu comprises a unit for flashing lights to indicate the operation status of device, and a rubric for an automatic functioning mode, which is programmed according to working of the device, a manual functioning mode, where the functions of device are manually performed according to an operator, a total surveillance mode, where the operation status of device is displayed on the touch control panel, a duration regulating mode, an alarm message mode and an operation regulating mode. The functions of operating condition comprise total operation, operation of agitator, water supply, washing operation, operation of decomposition agent, evacuation valve and pause.
