Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、有機性の廃棄物をメタン発酵処理するための前処理を行う廃棄物処理方法およびその装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
生ゴミや屎尿、下水汚泥、浄化槽汚泥などの有機性の廃棄物をメタン発酵処理する際には、あらかじめスクリーンなどにて夾雑物を除去しているが、除去しきれずに残留する夾雑物が核となり、メタン発酵の際やメタン発酵のために調質する際などにスカムが発生し、メタン発酵や調質を阻害する。
【0003】
そこで、従来において、スカムの発生を抑制するために、例えばビニル袋などに入った生ゴミは破袋機でビニル袋を破り、除袋機で破いたビニル袋を取り除く。この後、カッタやハンマミルなどにて生ゴミを粉砕し、ドラムスクリーンやトロンメルなどにて除袋にて除去できずに残留するビニル片やスチロールトレイ片などの重量の軽い夾雑物と野菜屑などの重量の重い生ゴミなどとを分離する。そして、夾雑物を除去した生ゴミなどの有機性の廃棄物を調質槽にて適宜水を添加して攪拌混合によりさらに裁断して調質し、この調質した廃棄物をメタン発酵処理している。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、破袋や除袋し、粉砕後にさらに夾雑物を除去する複雑な構成で、装置が大型となるとともに、処理する生ゴミなどの性状などにより夾雑物の除去が不十分で、スカムが発生する。また、破袋機や除袋機は構造が複雑で、異臭の発生を防止するために外部との遮断が困難で、遮断するための構成がさらに大型化する問題がある。
【0005】
本発明は、上記問題点に鑑み、装置が複雑・大型化することなく夾雑物の除去率が向上する廃棄物処理方法およびその装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1記載の廃棄物処理方法は、夾雑物が混入する有機性の廃棄物を攪拌混合することによりメタン発酵処理するための調質を行う廃棄物処理方法において、前記廃棄物を攪拌混合して調質する前に前記廃棄物を破砕し、前記破砕して調質した後に前記廃棄物を前記夾雑物とメタン発酵処理するための分離液とに固液分離し、前記調質は、固液分離した前記夾雑物を洗浄して得られた洗浄排液を破砕された前記廃棄物とともに行うものである。
【0007】
そして、有機性の廃棄物を夾雑物とともに破砕し、攪拌混合して調質した後、夾雑物とメタン発酵処理するための分離液とに固液分離するため、調質の際に生じる酸発酵と攪拌による裁断などの物理的作用により夾雑物と廃棄物とが容易に分離し、調質後の固液分離が容易となり、構造が簡略化し、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物を低減しつつ夾雑物の除去率が向上する。
【0008】
また、固液分離した夾雑物を洗浄して、夾雑物に付着していた有機物を含有する洗浄排液を破砕された廃棄物とともに調質するため、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率が向上する。さらに、調質の際に添加する水分が洗浄排液にて補われ、別途水を用いる必要がなく、廃棄物の処理効率が向上する。
【0009】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項1記載の廃棄物処理方法において、破砕は、破砕刃が軸方向で互いに重なり合う二軸を有した二軸式破砕機を用いるものである。
【0010】
そして、廃棄物を破砕刃が軸方向で互いに重なり合う二軸を有した二軸式破砕機を用いて破砕するため、簡単な構造で廃棄物を夾雑物とともに破砕できるとともに、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物は紐状に破砕されるので、これらビニル物やプラスチックなどの分離除去が容易となる。
【0011】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法において、二軸式破砕機は、二軸間の距離が1.5cm以上7.0cm以下であるものである。
【0012】
そして、二軸式破砕機の二軸間の距離を1.5cm以上7.0cm以下に設定するため、調質の際の攪拌混合が低負荷で容易にできる形状に廃棄物が破砕されて、調質性が向上するとともに、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物と有機物との形状の違いが生じやすく、固液分離による夾雑物の分離除去が容易となり、処理効率が向上する。なお、二軸間の距離が1.5cmより幅狭の場合、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物と有機物との形状が近似し、夾雑物と有機物との固液分離性が低下し、処理効率が低下する。また、二軸間の距離が7.0cmより幅広の場合、根菜類などの有機性の廃棄物の破砕状態が不十分となり、調質性が低下するため、二軸間の距離を1.5cm以上7.0cm以下に設定する。
【0013】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項1記載の廃棄物処理方法において、破砕は、夾雑物が15%以上含有されている場合、金属性の前記夾雑物を除去した後にスクリュープレスを用いて圧搾し、この圧搾により調質する濾液を分集するものである。
【0014】
そして、夾雑物を15%以上含有する有機性の廃棄物をスクリュープレスにより破砕・圧搾して調質するための濾液を分集するので、体積当たりの夾雑物の割合が多く破砕したものでも調質の際の攪拌混合が困難となる15%以上の夾雑物を含有する有機性の廃棄物でも、メタン発酵処理が可能となる。
【0015】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項1ないしいずれか一記載の廃棄物処理方法において、固液分離は、スクリュープレスを用いて行うものである。
【0016】
そして、調質した後の廃棄物をスクリュープレスを用いて圧搾して夾雑物とメタン発酵処理するための分離液とに固液分離するため、例えば特に金属性の夾雑物などが混入する割合が低い廃棄物を処理する場合などにおいて、破砕した後に夾雑物を除去しなくても一括で夾雑物を高度に分離除去でき、また夾雑物に付着する有機物を高度に回収でき、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率が向上する。なお、スクリュープレスを損傷するおそれがある金属性の夾雑物を多く含む場合には、あらかじめ金属性の夾雑物を分離除去するとよい。
【0017】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項1ないしいずれか一記載の廃棄物処理方法において、廃棄物を破砕した後で前記廃棄物を攪拌混合して調質する前に夾雑物を分離除去するものである。

【0021】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法において、トロンメルは、目幅寸法が廃棄物を破砕する際の目幅寸法より大きいものである。
【0022】
そして、トロンメルの目幅寸法を廃棄物を破砕する際の目幅寸法より大きく設定したため、粗大の夾雑物やビニル物あるいはプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物を、この夾雑物とともに有機物が排出される量が低減し、簡単な構成で容易に高度に夾雑物を分離除去する。
【0023】
請求項記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項または記載の廃棄物処理方法において、ドラムスクリーンにて固液分離した夾雑物をスクリュープレスを用いて圧搾し、前記ドラムスクリーンにて固液分離した分離液とともにメタン発酵処理されるための圧搾液を分集するものである。
【0024】

【0026】
そして、トロンメルにて分離除去した夾雑物を、この夾雑物が除去された廃棄物とともに混合して調質するため、調質の際に生じる酸発酵と攪拌の外的作用により夾雑物に付着する有機物が容易に分離し、有機物が付着したままの夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して処理効率が向上する。
【0027】
請求項1記載の廃棄物処理方法は、請求項1ないしいずれか一記載の廃棄物処理方法において、調質は、内部に廃棄物を貯留可能で底部の前記貯留する廃棄物を排出させる位置に固液分離手段を備えた調質槽を用いて行い、固液分離は、前記内部に貯留する廃棄物を前記固液分離手段を介して前記調質槽の外部に排出させることにより行うものである。
【0028】
そして、破砕した廃棄物を調質する調質槽の底部に設けた固液分離手段を介して調質槽内で調質した廃棄物を外部に排出する際に、固液分離手段にて固液分離して夾雑物を分離除去するので、簡単な構成で調質後の固液分離ができる。

そして、調質槽内で調質した廃棄物を外部に排出する際に固液分離手段にて固液分離した夾雑物を、金属性の廃棄物を分離除去した後にスクリュープレスを用いて圧搾し、メタン発酵処理されるための圧搾液を分集するため、夾雑物に付着する有機物をスクリュープレスを損傷することなく高度に回収でき、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率が向上する。

【0032】
そして、有機性の廃棄物を破砕手段にて破砕し、この破砕した廃棄物を調質手段にて攪拌混合して調質し、この調質した廃棄物を固液分離手段にて夾雑物を分離除去してメタン発酵処理するための分離液を分集するため、調質の際に生じる酸発酵と攪拌の外的作用により夾雑物と廃棄物とが容易に分離し、調質後の固液分離が容易となり、構造が簡略化し、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物を低減しつつ夾雑物の除去率が向上する。
【0033】
また、固液分離した夾雑物を洗浄手段にて洗浄して、夾雑物に付着していた有機物を含有する洗浄排液を返送手段にて調質手段に返送して破砕された廃棄物とともに調質するため、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率が向上する。さらに、調質の際に添加する水分が洗浄排液にて補われ、別途水を用いる必要がなく、廃棄物の処理効率が向上する。

【0052】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の廃棄物処理装置の実施の一形態の構成を図1を参照して説明する。
【0053】
図1において、1は破砕手段としての二軸式破砕機で、この二軸式破砕機1は、有機性の廃棄物、すなわち、生ゴミなどの厨芥廃棄物、屎尿や浄化槽汚泥などの屎尿系排水、食品加工汚泥などの有機性の産業廃棄物、集落排水、下水汚泥、家畜糞尿などの有機物を含有する廃棄物を破砕するもので、図示しない外周面に所定のピッチ、例えば2cm〜4cmのピッチで一体に複数設けた破砕刃を軸方向で重ね合わさるように一対の回転軸を有している。なお、二軸間の距離は、1.5cm以上7.0cm以下となるように設定する。すなわち、二軸間の距離が1.5cmより幅狭の場合、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物と生ゴミである野菜屑などの有機物との形状が近似し、後工程での夾雑物と廃棄物との固液分離性が低下し、処理効率が低下する。また、二軸間の距離が7.0cmより幅広の場合、根菜類などの有機性の廃棄物の破砕状態が不十分となり、後工程での調質性が低下するため、二軸間の距離を1.5cm以上7.0cm以下に設定する。
【0054】
そして、二軸式破砕機1は、廃棄物を破砕することにより、有機物は2〜4cm程度に破砕し、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物はこれより若干大きな紐状に破砕する。
【0055】
また、この二軸式破砕機1には、夾雑物除去手段としてのトロンメル2が接続されている。このトロンメル2は、図2に示すように、内周側に二軸式破砕機1にて破砕された廃棄物が投入される略円筒状で、例えば二軸式破砕機の破砕の際のピッチ寸法である目幅寸法より若干大きい2cm〜8cmの目幅寸法で通孔3が複数設けられている。さらに、軸方向が水平方向に対して約2°〜10°傾いて配設されている。そして、トロンメル2は、破砕された廃棄物を、通孔3を通過できないスチロールトレイ片やプラスチック片、ビニル片などの重量が軽い紐状に破砕された夾雑物と、通孔3を通過する破砕された野菜屑などの重量が重い破砕物とに分離する。
【0056】
なお、トロンメル2の目幅寸法が2cmより小さいと、粉砕された廃棄物のほとんどが夾雑物として排出され、後工程でメタン発酵処理するための有機物が得られなくなる。また、目幅寸法が8cmより大きくなると、紐状となったビニル片などの軽量の夾雑物まで通孔3を通過して、夾雑物を分離除去除去できなくなるため、目幅寸法を2cm〜8cmに設定する。さらに、傾きが2°より小さいと、順次投入された破砕された廃棄物がトロンメル2の内周側を移動できなくなり、夾雑物と破砕物とに分離できなくなる。また、傾きが10°より大きいと、傾斜が急となり、内周側に投入された廃棄物が直ちに通過して、夾雑物と破砕物とほとんど分離できずに夾雑物として排出されるため、傾きを2°〜10°に設定する。
【0057】
そして、トロンメル2は、略円筒状で内周面に突出する部材がない簡単な構成であるため、内周側を透過する破砕物が突出する部材に引っ掛かり、通孔3が閉塞されて夾雑物と破砕物との分離性が低下したり、内周側の通過性が損なわれて処理効率が低下するなどを防止できるとともに、引っ掛かった破砕物による悪臭の発生や蛆などの害虫の発生を抑制できる。
【0058】
さらに、トロンメル2には、調質手段としての調質槽4が接続されている。そして、この調質槽4には、攪拌手段としての例えば0.8kw/mの垂下型スクリュー攪拌機が3基吊り下げ支持され、底部に攪拌手段としての例えば4.8kw/mのパルパ型スクリュー攪拌機が1基設けられているとともに、投入された破砕物を加温する図示しない加温手段が設けられている。なお、この加温手段は、設けなくてもよいが、調質の際に酸発酵を進行させて後工程でのメタン発酵処理の効率を向上させるために設けるとよい。
【0059】
また、調質槽4内に投入された破砕物は、含水率が85%〜90%程度となるように水分を適宜添加され、加温しつつ攪拌混合される。なお、含水率が85%より少なくなると攪拌および後工程への搬送が困難となり、含水率が90%より多くなると濃度が低下して後工程でのメタン発酵の効率が低下するため、含水率を約85%〜約90%程度に設定する。
【0060】
そして、この調質槽4内に投入された破砕物は、例えば1〜15時間加温しつつ攪拌混合され、加温により酸発酵が若干進行し、攪拌により破砕物が裁断され、スラリ状の調質物となる。
【0061】
また、調質槽4には、固液分離手段5を構成するドラムスクリーン6が接続されている。このドラムスクリーン6は、目幅寸法が例えば破砕時の目幅寸法である2cm〜4cmより若干小さい1cm〜3cmに形成されている。ここで、ドラムスクリーン6の目幅寸法が1cmより小さいと調質物中のメタン発酵処理する有機物も夾雑物として排出される割合が増大する。また、目幅寸法が3cmより大きくなると、夾雑物がほとんど通過し、夾雑物を分離除去できなくなるため、目幅寸法を1cm〜3cmに設定する。
【0062】
そして、このドラムスクリーン6により、調質槽4にて調質された破砕物である調質物が、スラリ状の分離液とガラス片や金属片などの重量物とに固液分離される。なお、調質物は、総固形物(TS濃度)が15%以下のスラリ状となっているため、簡単な構成で夾雑物とメタン発酵処理される分離液との分離性が高い湿式分別装置であるドラムスクリーン6を用いて夾雑物と分離液とに固液分離する。
【0063】
また、ドラムスクリーン6には、固液分離手段5を構成するスクリュープレス7が接続されている。そして、このスクリュープレス7は、ドラムスクリーン6にて固液分離された夾雑物を圧搾して圧搾液を分集し、圧搾液はドラムスクリーン6にて分離した分離液とともに後工程のメタン発酵処理工程に搬送される。
【0064】
次に、上記実施の形態の動作を説明する。
【0065】
廃棄物は、二軸式破砕機1にて約2cm〜4cm程度まで破砕される。なお、廃棄物中の野菜屑などの有機物は2cm〜4cm程度に破砕され、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物はこれより若干大きな紐状に破砕される。
【0066】
そして、この破砕された廃棄物は、トロンメル2に投入され、特に紐状に破砕された軽量の夾雑物はトロンメル2の通孔3を通過できず、夾雑物としてトロンメル2の内周側から排出され、2cm〜4cm程度に破砕された有機物は通孔3を通過して破砕物として回収され、夾雑物と破砕物とに分離される。なお、夾雑物は、別途固形燃料などに加工されたり、焼却処分される。
【0067】
さらに、破砕物は、調質槽4内に投入され、含水率が85%〜90%程度となるように水分が適宜添加され、図示しない加温手段にて加温されつつ垂下型スクリュー攪拌機およびパルパ型スクリュー攪拌機にて攪拌混合され、スラリ状の調質物となる。
【0068】
次に、調質物は、固液分離手段5のドラムスクリーン6に投入され、スラリ状の分離液とトロンメル2にて分離除去されずに残留するビニルなどの軽量の夾雑物および特にガラス片や金属片などの重量の重い夾雑物とに固液分離される。そして、スラリ状の分離液は、後工程のメタン発酵処理工程に搬送され、メタン発酵処理される。また、ドラムスクリーン6にて固液分離された夾雑物は、スクリュープレス7に投入されて圧搾され、夾雑物と圧搾液とに分離され、圧搾液は分離液と同様に後工程のメタン発酵処理工程に搬送されてメタン発酵処理される。なお、夾雑物は、別途建材などとして利用したり、埋め立てたりする。
【0069】
上述したように、有機性の廃棄物を夾雑物とともに破砕し、加温しつつ攪拌混合して調質した後、夾雑物とメタン発酵処理するための分離液とに固液分離するため、調質の際に生じる酸発酵と攪拌の外的で機械的な作用である物理的作用により夾雑物と廃棄物とを容易に分離でき、調質後の固液分離が容易となり、構造を簡略化でき、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物を低減しつつ夾雑物の除去率を向上できる。
【0070】
また、廃棄物を破砕刃が軸方向で互いに重なり合う二軸を有した二軸式破砕機1を用いて破砕したため、簡単な構造で廃棄物を夾雑物とともに破砕できるとともに、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物は有機物と異なる形状で大きな寸法となる紐状に破砕でき、これらビニル物やプラスチックなどの分離除去が容易にできる。
【0071】
さらに、二軸式破砕機1の二軸間の距離を1.5cm以上7.0cm以下に設定したため、調質の際の攪拌混合が低負荷で容易にできる形状に廃棄物を破砕でき、攪拌などの調質性を向上できるとともに、ビニル物やプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物と有機物との形状の違いが生じやすく、固液分離による夾雑物の分離除去が容易にでき、処理効率を向上できる。
【0072】
また、破砕した廃棄物からトロンメル2にて夾雑物を分離除去した後に調質するため、調質の際の攪拌や酸発酵などの調質性を向上できるとともに、調質後の固液分離の負荷が低減して簡単な構成で容易に固液分離できるので、夾雑物とともに処理すべき有機物が排出することを低減しつつ簡単な構成で夾雑物の分離除去率を向上できる。
【0073】
そして、破砕した廃棄物はトロンメル2を用いて特に粗大の夾雑物を分離除去することにより簡単な構成で調質性を向上でき、調質するために廃棄物を搬送することが容易にできるとともに、調質後の固液分離に簡単な構造のドラムスクリーン6を利用できる。また、ドラムスクリーン6にて調質後の廃棄物から夾雑物を固液分離するため、ドラムスクリーン6での閉塞を防止しつつ高度に夾雑物を分離除去できる。
【0074】
さらに、トロンメル2の目幅寸法を廃棄物を破砕する際の目幅寸法より大きく設定したため、粗大の夾雑物やビニル物あるいはプラスチック物などの軽量の夾雑物を、この夾雑物とともに有機物が排出される量を低減でき、簡単な構成で容易に高度に夾雑物を分離除去できる。
【0075】
また、ドラムスクリーン6にて固液分離した夾雑物をスクリュープレス7を用いて圧搾し、得られた圧搾液をドラムスクリーン6にて固液分離した分離液とともにメタン発酵処理するため、夾雑物に付着する有機物を回収でき、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物を容易に処理できるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率を向上できる。
【0076】
なお、上記実施の形態において、固液分離手段5のスクリュープレス7にて圧搾されて脱水された夾雑物を、洗浄手段などにて洗浄し、固液分離して得られた夾雑物は埋め立てたり建材などに加工するなどの処理をし、得られた洗浄排液は調質槽4に返送したり、分離液および圧搾液とともにメタン発酵処理工程に搬送してもよい。この構成によれば、夾雑物に付着する有機物を回収でき、有機物が付着した夾雑物を処理する際に悪臭が生じにくく、夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して有機物の処理効率が向上する。さらに、調質槽4に洗浄排液を返送する構成では、調質の際に添加する水分が洗浄排液にて補われ、別途水を用いる必要がなく、廃棄物の処理効率を向上できる。
【0077】
また、トロンメル2にて分離した夾雑物を調質槽4に搬送し、分離した破砕物とともに調質してもよい。すなわち、例えばビニル片やスチロールトレイ片などの軽量の夾雑物にこびりついたメタン発酵処理すべき有機物である米粒などは、トロンメル2にて破砕物として回収できず、軽量の夾雑物とともに排出される。このため、有機物の処理効率の向上が望めなくなるとともに、有機物が付着する夾雑物の処理が、悪臭を生じるなど煩雑となるとともに装置が大型化するおそれがある。したがって、一旦調質槽4にて破砕物とともに調質することにより、調質の際に生じる酸発酵と攪拌の外的作用により夾雑物に付着する有機物が容易に分離でき、有機物が付着したままの夾雑物を処理する際の悪臭の発生を抑制して夾雑物の処理が容易となるとともに、夾雑物とともに排出される有機物が低減して処理効率を向上できる。
【0078】
そして、破砕手段としては、二軸式破砕機1に限らず、いずれのものでもできる。なお、二軸式破砕機1のように、簡単な構造で夾雑物とともに破砕でき、ビニルなどの軽量の夾雑物の破砕後の形状が分離除去可能な紐状など、他に比べて大きく異形となるように破砕できるものが好ましい。
【0079】
また、夾雑物除去手段としては、トロンメル2に限らず、いずれのものでもでき、またトロンメル2などの夾雑物除去手段を設けなくてもよい。すなわち、破砕後に夾雑物とともに調質し、調質物をスクリュープレス7やドラムスクリーン6などにて固液分離してもよい。なお、この破砕後の時点では総固形物(TS濃度)が15%以上であることから、トロンメルなどの乾式分離装置が好ましい。また、トロンメル2などの構造が簡単で廃棄物が引っ掛かるなどが生じにくい構成が好ましい。
【0080】
さらに、固液分離手段5としては、ドラムスクリーン6に限らず、いずれのものでもよい。なお、上述したように、ドラムスクリーン6のように、構造が簡単で夾雑物の分離除去性が高い特に湿式分別するものが好ましい。
【0081】
また、固液分離手段5として、スクリュープレス7を備えた構成について説明したが、スクリュープレス7を設けなくてもよい。なお、スクリュープレス7にて夾雑物を圧搾する際、夾雑物中に金属やガラス片などが多く含まれるような場合には、一旦金属やガラス片などを除去した後に圧搾し、スクリュープレス7が金属片やガラス片などにて損傷することを防止する構成とする。
【0082】
一方、処理対象の廃棄物が、総固形物(TS濃度)が15%より多い場合には、二軸式破砕機1による破砕およびトロンメル2による夾雑物除去をせずに、スクリュープレスを用いて圧搾し、得られた圧搾液を調質するようにするとよい。すなわち、夾雑物を15%以上含有する有機性の廃棄物をスクリュープレス7により破砕・圧搾して調質するための濾液を分集することにより、体積当たりの夾雑物の割合が多く破砕したものでも調質の際の攪拌混合が困難となる15%以上の夾雑物を含有する有機性の廃棄物でも、メタン発酵処理が可能となる。
【0083】
次に、本発明の他の実施の形態を図3および図4を参照して説明する。
【0084】
この図3および図4に示す実施の形態は、図1および図2に示す実施の形態の調質槽4に固液分離手段5を備えたものである。
【0085】
すなわち、図3において、二軸式破砕機1には、調質手段としての調質槽11が接続されている。そして、この調質槽11は、図4に示すように、二軸式破砕機1にて破砕した廃棄物を投入する投入口12と、底部に開口し内部の調質物を排出する排出口13を開口した密閉型の槽で、この排出口13を閉塞するように固液分離手段としてのスクリーン14を設けている。なお、このスクリーン14は、略円形の挿通孔15が複数開口形成されたパンチングメタル状に形成されている。
【0086】
また、調質槽11には、図1および図2に示す実施の形態と同様に、攪拌手段としての例えば0.8kw/mの垂下型スクリュー攪拌機17が3基吊り下げ支持され、底部に攪拌手段としての例えば4.8kw/mのパルパ型スクリュー攪拌機18が1基設けられているとともに、投入された破砕物を加温する図示しない加温手段が設けられている。なお、パルパ型スクリュー撹拌機18には、スクリーン14に対向して放射状に複数のスクレーパ19,19が突設されている。さらに、調質槽11には、スクレーパ19,19にて掻き取られた夾雑物が排出される夾雑物排出口20が開口形成されている。
【0087】
そして、調質槽11内に投入口12から投入された破砕物は、含水率が85%〜90%程度となるように水分を適宜添加され、加温されつつ攪拌混合され、加温により酸発酵が若干進行し、攪拌により破砕物が裁断され、スラリ状の調質物となる。さらに、調質物は、スクリーン14により、スラリ状の分離液とビニル片、ガラス片や金属片などの夾雑物とに固液分離されて、夾雑物はスクリーン14の挿通孔15を通過できずにスクリーン14上に貯留され、分離液は挿通孔15を通過して後工程のメタン発酵処理工程に搬送される。なお、夾雑物は、スクレーパ19,19により掻き取られて夾雑物排出口20から調質槽11外に排出され、スクリーン14が閉塞することはない。
【0088】
このように、上記図3および図4に示す実施の形態によれば、調質槽11の底部に調質物を排出する位置にスクリーン14を設けて夾雑物を除去したため、調質による酸発酵や攪拌による外的作用により夾雑物と廃棄物とが容易に分離することにより、簡単な構成で夾雑物を高度に固液分離できる。
【0089】
また、調質槽11の底部にスクリーン14を設けたため、重力による調質物の排出の際に同時に固液分離できるので、固液分離が容易にできる。
【0090】
なお、上記図3および図4に示す実施の形態において、スクリーン14にて固液分離した分離液をさらにスクリュープレスにて圧搾してメタン発酵処理するための分離液を分集してもよい。この構成によれば、さらに夾雑物を高度に分離除去でき、メタン発酵の際のスカムの発生を防止できる。
【0091】
また、図1および図2に示す実施の形態で説明したように、スクリーン14にて固液分離した夾雑物を、洗浄手段などにて洗浄し、固液分離して得られた夾雑物は埋め立てたり建材などに加工するなどの処理をし、得られた洗浄排液は調質槽11に返送したり、分離液とともにメタン発酵処理工程に搬送してもよい。
【0092】
さらに、図1および図2に示す実施の形態で説明したように、スクリーン14にて固液分離した夾雑物を、スクリュープレス7により圧搾し、得られた圧搾液を調質槽11に返送したり、分離液とともにメタン発酵処理工程に搬送してもよい。
【0093】
そして、固液分離手段としてスクリーン14を用いたが、他の構成でもよい。
【0094】
また、廃棄物中に金属片やガラス片などの硬質の夾雑物の混入量が少ない場合には、スクリーン14を設けず、調質槽11から排出される調質物をスクリュープレス7により圧搾し、圧搾液をメタン発酵処理工程におくってもよい。この構成によれば、簡単な構成で高度に夾雑物を分離除去できるとともに、有機物を高度に回収できる。また、廃棄物中に金属などが混入する場合には、スクリュープレスの前にあらかじめ金属性の夾雑物などを除去すればよい。
【0095】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a waste treatment method and apparatus for performing pretreatment for subjecting organic waste to methane fermentation.
[0002]
[Prior art]
When organic waste such as raw garbage, manure, sewage sludge, and septic tank sludge is subjected to methane fermentation, impurities are removed beforehand using a screen, etc., but the remaining impurities that cannot be removed are the core. Thus, scum is generated during methane fermentation or during tempering for methane fermentation, and inhibits methane fermentation and tempering.
[0003]
Therefore, conventionally, in order to suppress the occurrence of scum, for example, garbage that has entered a vinyl bag or the like breaks the vinyl bag with a bag breaker and removes the vinyl bag broken with the bag remover. After this, the garbage is crushed with a cutter or a hammer mill, etc., and it is not possible to remove it by removing the bag with a drum screen or trommel. Separate heavy garbage. Then, organic waste such as raw garbage from which impurities have been removed is appropriately tempered by adding water in a tempering tank, further cutting and tempering by stirring and mixing, and subjecting this tempered waste to methane fermentation treatment. ing.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, it has a complicated structure that removes foreign matter after smashing and removing the bag and crushing it, and the equipment becomes large, and the removal of foreign matter is not enough due to the properties of raw garbage to be processed, resulting in scum. To do. In addition, the bag opener and the bag remover have a complicated structure, and it is difficult to shut off from the outside in order to prevent the generation of a strange odor, and there is a problem that the configuration for blocking is further enlarged.
[0005]
In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a waste treatment method and apparatus for improving the removal rate of contaminants without increasing the complexity and size of the apparatus.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The waste treatment method according to claim 1 is a waste treatment method in which organic waste mixed with impurities is stirred and mixed to perform tempering for methane fermentation treatment, and the waste is stirred and mixed. The waste is crushed before tempering, and after the crushed and tempered, the waste is solid-liquid separated into the impurities and a separation liquid for methane fermentation treatment. The tempering is performed together with the crushed waste from the washing drainage obtained by washing the solid-liquid separated impurities. Is.
[0007]
Then, after crushing organic waste together with impurities, stirring and mixing and tempering, solid-liquid separation into impurities and separation liquid for methane fermentation treatment, acid fermentation that occurs during tempering It is easy to separate impurities and waste by physical action such as cutting with stirring, and solid-liquid separation after tempering becomes easy, the structure is simplified, and organic substances discharged together with impurities are reduced. The removal rate of objects is improved.
[0008]
Also, Cleaning the solid-liquid separated contaminants and tempering the washed waste liquid containing the organic matter adhering to the contaminants together with the crushed waste, so there is a bad odor when processing the contaminants adhering to the organic matter It is difficult to occur, and it becomes easy to treat impurities, and the organic matter discharged with the impurities is reduced to improve the treatment efficiency of the organic matter. Furthermore, the water added during the tempering is supplemented by the washing waste liquid, so that it is not necessary to use water separately, and the waste processing efficiency is improved.
[0009]
Claim 2 The waste disposal method described in claim 1 In the waste disposal method described above, the crushing is performed using a biaxial crusher having two axes in which crushing blades overlap each other in the axial direction.
[0010]
And because the waste is crushed using a twin-screw crusher with two axes whose crushing blades overlap each other in the axial direction, the waste can be crushed with impurities with a simple structure, and vinyl and plastics etc. Since the light-weight impurities are crushed into a string shape, it is easy to separate and remove these vinyl materials and plastics.
[0011]
Claim 3 The waste disposal method described in claim 2 In the described waste treatment method, the twin-screw crusher has a distance between two shafts of 1.5 cm to 7.0 cm.
[0012]
And in order to set the distance between the two shafts of the twin-screw crusher to 1.5 cm or more and 7.0 cm or less, the waste is crushed into a shape that allows easy stirring and mixing during tempering with a low load, The refining property is improved, and the shape difference between a light-weight contaminant such as a vinyl product or a plastic material and an organic material is likely to occur, and the separation and removal of the contaminant by solid-liquid separation is facilitated, thereby improving the processing efficiency. If the distance between the two axes is narrower than 1.5 cm, the shape of the light contaminants such as vinyl and plastics approximates the shape of the organic matter, and the solid-liquid separation between the contaminant and the organic matter decreases. , Processing efficiency decreases. In addition, when the distance between the two axes is wider than 7.0 cm, the organic waste such as root vegetables becomes insufficiently crushed and the tempering property is lowered, so the distance between the two axes is 1.5 cm. Set to 7.0 cm or less.
[0013]
Claim 4 The waste disposal method described in claim 1 In the above-mentioned waste treatment method, when 15% or more of contaminants are contained, crushing is performed using a screw press after removing the metallic impurities, and the filtrate to be conditioned by this pressing is collected. To do.
[0014]
And since the filtrate for crushing and squeezing organic waste containing 15% or more of impurities with a screw press is collected, it is tempered even if the percentage of impurities per volume is crushed.

[0052]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the configuration of an embodiment of the waste treatment apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
[0053]
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a twin-screw crusher as a crushing means. This twin-screw crusher 1 is an organic waste, that is, a waste material such as raw garbage, a urine system such as manure and septic tank sludge. Organic industrial waste such as wastewater, food processing sludge, wastewater containing village wastewater, sewage sludge, livestock manure and other waste containing organic matter is crushed. The outer peripheral surface (not shown) has a predetermined pitch, for example, 2 cm to 4 cm. A pair of rotating shafts are provided so that a plurality of crushing blades integrally provided at a pitch are overlapped in the axial direction. The distance between the two axes is set to be 1.5 cm or more and 7.0 cm or less. In other words, when the distance between the two axes is narrower than 1.5 cm, the shape of light-weight contaminants such as vinyl and plastics and organic matter such as vegetable waste, which is raw garbage, approximates, and contamination in subsequent processes. The solid-liquid separation property between the waste and the waste is lowered, and the processing efficiency is lowered. Also, if the distance between the two axes is wider than 7.0 cm, the organic waste such as root vegetables is not sufficiently crushed and the tempering properties in the subsequent process are reduced, so the distance between the two axes. Is set to 1.5 cm or more and 7.0 cm or less.
[0054]
Then, the biaxial crusher 1 crushes the waste, thereby crushing the organic matter to about 2 to 4 cm, and crushing lightweight impurities such as vinyl and plastic into a slightly larger string.
[0055]
The biaxial crusher 1 is connected to a trommel 2 as a contaminant removal means. As shown in FIG. 2, the trommel 2 has a substantially cylindrical shape into which waste crushed by the biaxial crusher 1 is introduced on the inner peripheral side. For example, the pitch at the time of crushing the biaxial crusher A plurality of through holes 3 are provided with a mesh size of 2 cm to 8 cm, which is slightly larger than the size of the mesh width. Furthermore, the axial direction is disposed with an inclination of about 2 ° to 10 ° with respect to the horizontal direction. The trommel 2 breaks the crushed waste through the through-holes 3, such as styrene tray pieces, plastic pieces and vinyl pieces that cannot pass through the through-holes 3. Separated into heavy crushed materials such as vegetable waste.
[0056]
If the mesh width of the trommel 2 is smaller than 2 cm, most of the pulverized waste is discharged as impurities, and organic matter for methane fermentation treatment in the subsequent process cannot be obtained. In addition, when the mesh width dimension is larger than 8 cm, it becomes impossible to separate and remove the contaminants through the through-hole 3 to the light-weight contaminants such as the vinyl pieces in a string shape. Set to. Further, if the inclination is smaller than 2 °, the crushed waste that has been sequentially fed cannot move on the inner peripheral side of the trommel 2 and cannot be separated into foreign matter and crushed material. In addition, if the inclination is larger than 10 °, the inclination becomes steep, and the waste thrown into the inner peripheral side immediately passes through and is discharged as impurities with almost no separation between the impurities and crushed materials. Is set to 2 ° to 10 °.
[0057]
Since the trommel 2 has a simple cylindrical shape and does not have a member projecting on the inner peripheral surface, the crushed material that permeates the inner peripheral side is caught by the projecting member, and the through-hole 3 is blocked and is contaminated. Can be prevented from being separated from the crushed material and the inner peripheral side passability is impaired and the processing efficiency is reduced, and the generation of odors and pests such as spiders from the crushed material is suppressed. it can.
[0058]
Furthermore, a tempering tank 4 as a tempering means is connected to the trommel 2. The tempering tank 4 has, for example, 0.8 kw / m as a stirring means. 3 3 suspension type screw stirrers are suspended and supported at the bottom, for example, 4.8 kw / m as a stirring means. 3 And a heating means (not shown) for heating the crushed material is provided. In addition, although this heating means does not need to be provided, it is good to provide in order to advance the acid fermentation in the case of tempering and to improve the efficiency of the methane fermentation process in a post process.
[0059]
In addition, the crushed material put into the tempering tank 4 is appropriately added with moisture so that the moisture content is about 85% to 90%, and stirred and mixed while heating. If the water content is less than 85%, it becomes difficult to stir and transport to the subsequent process. If the water content exceeds 90%, the concentration decreases and the efficiency of methane fermentation in the subsequent process decreases. It is set to about 85% to about 90%.
[0060]
And the crushed material thrown in in this tempering tank 4 is stirred and mixed, for example, heating for 1 to 15 hours, acid fermentation progresses a little by heating, crushed material is cut | judged by stirring, and is slurry-like. It becomes a tempered product.
[0061]
The tempering tank 4 is connected to a drum screen 6 constituting solid-liquid separation means 5. The drum screen 6 has a mesh size of 1 cm to 3 cm which is slightly smaller than 2 cm to 4 cm which is the size of the mesh when crushing, for example. Here, if the mesh size of the drum screen 6 is smaller than 1 cm, the proportion of the organic matter to be subjected to the methane fermentation treatment in the tempered product increases as impurities. Further, when the mesh width dimension is larger than 3 cm, most of the contaminants pass through and the contaminants cannot be separated and removed, so the mesh width dimension is set to 1 cm to 3 cm.
[0062]
The drum screen 6 separates the tempered material, which is a crushed material conditioned in the tempering tank 4, into a slurry-like separated liquid and a heavy material such as a glass piece or a metal piece. The tempered material is a slurry with a total solid content (TS concentration) of 15% or less, so it is a wet fractionation device with a simple structure and a high separation property between the impurities and the separation liquid treated with methane fermentation. A certain drum screen 6 is used to perform solid-liquid separation into impurities and separated liquid.
[0063]
The drum screen 6 is connected to a screw press 7 constituting the solid-liquid separation means 5. And this screw press 7 squeezes the foreign substance solid-liquid-separated with the drum screen 6, and collects a pressing liquid, and the pressing liquid is a methane fermentation process process of a post process with the separated liquid isolate | separated with the drum screen 6. It is conveyed to.
[0064]
Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described.
[0065]
The waste is crushed to about 2 cm to 4 cm by the twin-screw crusher 1. In addition, organic matters such as vegetable waste in the waste are crushed to about 2 cm to 4 cm, and lightweight impurities such as vinyl and plastic are crushed into a slightly larger string.
[0066]
The crushed waste is put into the trommel 2, and in particular, lightweight impurities crushed in a string cannot pass through the through holes 3 of the trommel 2 and are discharged from the inner peripheral side of the trommel 2 as contaminants. The organic matter crushed to about 2 cm to 4 cm passes through the through-hole 3 and is collected as a crushed matter, and is separated into foreign matter and crushed matter. The foreign substances are separately processed into solid fuel or incinerated.
[0067]
Furthermore, the crushed material is put into the tempering tank 4, moisture is appropriately added so that the moisture content is about 85% to 90%, and while being heated by a heating means (not shown), The mixture is stirred and mixed with a pulper type screw stirrer to form a slurry-like tempered product.
[0068]
Next, the tempered material is thrown into the drum screen 6 of the solid-liquid separation means 5, and light impurities such as vinyl that remain without being separated and removed by the slurry-like separation liquid and the trommel 2, especially glass pieces and metals. Solid-liquid separation into heavy impurities such as pieces. Then, the slurry-like separation liquid is transported to the subsequent methane fermentation treatment step and subjected to methane fermentation treatment. Further, the foreign matter separated from the solid and the liquid by the drum screen 6 is put into a screw press 7 and pressed to be separated into a foreign matter and a pressed liquid. The pressed liquid is a methane fermentation process in the subsequent step in the same manner as the separated liquid. It is transported to the process and processed for methane fermentation. In addition, foreign materials are used separately as building materials or landfilled.
[0069]
As described above, the organic waste is crushed together with impurities, stirred and mixed while warming, and then subjected to solid-liquid separation into impurities and a separation liquid for methane fermentation. The physical action, which is the external mechanical action of acid fermentation and agitation that occurs during quality, makes it easy to separate impurities and waste, and facilitates solid-liquid separation after tempering and simplifies the structure. It is possible to improve the removal rate of impurities while reducing the organic matter discharged together with the impurities.
[0070]
In addition, since the waste was crushed using the twin-screw crusher 1 having two axes in which the crushing blades overlap each other in the axial direction, the waste can be crushed together with impurities with a simple structure, and vinyl or plastic The lightweight contaminants can be crushed into a string shape having a different size from that of the organic material, and separation and removal of these vinyl materials and plastics can be facilitated.
[0071]
Furthermore, since the distance between the two shafts of the twin-screw crusher 1 is set to 1.5 cm or more and 7.0 cm or less, the waste can be crushed into a shape that allows easy stirring and mixing during tempering with a low load. In addition to improving the tempering properties, it is easy to make a difference in the shape between lightweight contaminants such as vinyl and plastic, and organic matter, and it is easy to separate and remove contaminants by solid-liquid separation, improving processing efficiency. it can.
[0072]
In addition, since the trash is separated and removed from the crushed waste by Trommel 2, the tempering such as stirring and acid fermentation during tempering can be improved, and solid-liquid separation after tempering can be improved. Since the load is reduced and the solid-liquid separation can be easily performed with a simple configuration, the separation and removal rate of the contaminants can be improved with a simple configuration while reducing the discharge of the organic matter to be treated together with the contaminants.
[0073]
The crushed waste can be improved in temperability with a simple structure by separating and removing particularly coarse impurities using the trommel 2 and can be easily transported for tempering. The drum screen 6 having a simple structure can be used for solid-liquid separation after tempering. Further, since the contaminants are solid-liquid separated from the tempered waste by the drum screen 6, the contaminants can be separated and removed highly while preventing the drum screen 6 from being blocked.
[0074]
In addition, since the size of the trommel 2 is set larger than the size of the mesh used when crushing waste, organic matter is discharged together with the coarse impurities and lightweight impurities such as vinyl or plastic. The amount of contamination can be reduced, and contaminants can be easily separated and removed with a simple configuration.
[0075]
In addition, the impurities separated by solid and liquid on the drum screen 6 are squeezed using a screw press 7, and the resulting compressed solution is subjected to methane fermentation treatment with the separated liquid separated on the drum screen 6. Organic matter that adheres can be recovered, and it is hard to produce bad odors when processing foreign matter to which the organic matter has adhered, and it is possible to easily treat the foreign matter, and the organic matter discharged together with the foreign matter can be reduced to improve the processing efficiency of the organic matter. .
[0076]
In the above-described embodiment, the contaminants obtained by squeezing and dehydrating the contaminants that have been squeezed and dehydrated by the screw press 7 of the solid-liquid separation means 5 may be landfilled. The cleaning waste liquid obtained by processing such as processing into building materials may be returned to the tempering tank 4 or conveyed to the methane fermentation treatment step together with the separation liquid and the pressing liquid. According to this configuration, the organic matter adhering to the foreign matter can be collected, and when processing the foreign matter to which the organic matter adheres, malodor is less likely to occur, and the disposal of the foreign matter becomes easy. This reduces the organic matter processing efficiency. Furthermore, in the configuration in which the cleaning waste liquid is returned to the refining tank 4, the water added during the refining is supplemented with the cleaning waste liquid, so that it is not necessary to use water separately, and the waste processing efficiency can be improved.
[0077]
Moreover, the foreign material isolate | separated with the trommel 2 may be conveyed to the tempering tank 4, and may be tempered with the isolate | separated crushed material. That is, for example, rice grains that are organic matter to be methane-fermented and stuck to lightweight contaminants such as vinyl pieces and polystyrene tray pieces cannot be recovered as crushed material by Trommel 2 and are discharged together with lightweight impurities. For this reason, the improvement of the processing efficiency of organic matter cannot be expected, and the processing of the foreign matter to which the organic matter adheres becomes complicated such as generating a bad odor, and the apparatus may be increased in size. Therefore, once tempered with the crushed material in the tempering tank 4, the organic matter adhering to the contaminants can be easily separated by the external action of acid fermentation and stirring generated during the tempering, and the organic matter remains attached. It is possible to suppress the generation of bad odor when processing the foreign matter, and to facilitate the processing of the foreign matter, and to reduce the organic matter discharged together with the foreign matter and improve the processing efficiency.
[0078]
The crushing means is not limited to the biaxial crusher 1, and any crushing means can be used. In addition, like the twin-screw crusher 1, it can be crushed with impurities with a simple structure, and the shape after crushing of lightweight impurities such as vinyl can be separated and removed. What can be crushed is preferable.
[0079]
Further, the contaminant removing means is not limited to the trommel 2 and any one can be used, and the contaminant removing means such as the trommel 2 may not be provided. That is, after crushing, it may be tempered together with impurities, and the tempered material may be solid-liquid separated with a screw press 7 or a drum screen 6. In addition, since the total solid (TS concentration) is 15% or more at the time after the crushing, a dry separation apparatus such as a trommel is preferable. In addition, a structure such as a trommel 2 that is simple and is unlikely to catch waste is preferable.
[0080]
Further, the solid-liquid separation means 5 is not limited to the drum screen 6 and may be any one. As described above, a drum screen 6 that has a simple structure and high separation / removability of impurities is particularly preferable.
[0081]
Moreover, although the structure provided with the screw press 7 as the solid-liquid separation means 5 was demonstrated, the screw press 7 does not need to be provided. In addition, when squeezing impurities with the screw press 7, if a lot of metals or glass pieces are included in the impurities, the metal press or the glass piece is once squeezed, and the screw press 7 It is configured to prevent damage from metal pieces or glass pieces.
[0082]
On the other hand, if the waste to be treated has a total solids (TS concentration) of more than 15%, a screw press is used without crushing by the twin-screw crusher 1 and removal of impurities by the trommel 2. It is good to squeeze and to temper the obtained compressed liquid. That is, even if the organic waste containing 15% or more of impurities is crushed and squeezed by the screw press 7 and the filtrate is collected for tempering, even if the amount of impurities per volume is crushed Even organic waste containing 15% or more of contaminants that makes stirring and mixing during tempering difficult, enables methane fermentation treatment.
[0083]
Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0084]
In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the tempering tank 4 of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is provided with a solid-liquid separation means 5.
[0085]
That is, in FIG. 3, a tempering tank 11 as a tempering means is connected to the biaxial crusher 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the tempering tank 11 includes an inlet 12 for introducing the waste crushed by the twin-screw crusher 1, and an outlet 13 for opening the conditioned material opened at the bottom. A screen 14 serving as a solid-liquid separation means is provided so as to close the discharge port 13. The screen 14 is formed in a punching metal shape in which a plurality of substantially circular insertion holes 15 are formed.
[0086]
In the tempering tank 11, as in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, for example, 0.8 kw / m as a stirring means is used. 3 3 suspension type screw stirrers 17 are supported by hanging, and the bottom part is, for example, 4.8 kw / m as a stirring means. 3 And a heating means (not shown) for heating the crushed material. Note that a plurality of scrapers 19, 19 project radially from the pulper screw agitator 18 so as to face the screen 14. Furthermore, the tempering tank 11 is formed with an opening for discharging a foreign matter 20 through which the foreign matter scraped off by the scrapers 19 and 19 is discharged.
[0087]
The crushed material introduced into the tempering tank 11 from the inlet 12 is appropriately added with moisture so that the moisture content is about 85% to 90%, and stirred and mixed while being heated. Fermentation proceeds slightly and the crushed material is cut by stirring to become a slurry-like tempered product. Furthermore, the tempered material is solid-liquid separated by the screen 14 into a slurry-like separation liquid and foreign matters such as vinyl pieces, glass pieces and metal pieces, and the foreign matters cannot pass through the insertion holes 15 of the screen 14. The separated liquid is stored on the screen 14, passes through the insertion hole 15, and is transported to the methane fermentation treatment process in the subsequent process. The foreign matter is scraped off by the scrapers 19 and 19 and discharged from the foreign matter discharge port 20 to the outside of the refining tank 11, and the screen 14 is not blocked.
[0088]
Thus, according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the screen 14 is provided at the position where the conditioned material is discharged at the bottom of the tempering tank 11, and impurities are removed.
