중국의 2012년도 가정용 음식물처리기 수입 시장 규모는 1억호 이상의 가정 중 1%에도 못 미치는 보급률에도 불구하고 약 2400만 달러로, 현재까지는 가정용음식물 쓰레기에 대해서는 특별한 규제가 없으며 정부의 수거 및 재활용 계획이 일부 시범지역에 국한되어 있었으나 점차 확대될 전망으로 향후 큰 시장잠재력을 가지고 있음. 선호 가격대와 타겟에 대한 분석 이후, 분리수거가 활성화된 지역 중심으로 중국 하수관거의 특징 등을 고려한 기술을 채택한 제품을 개발하여 진출하는 것이 바람직함

This study was conducted to investigated the distribution and ecological character of Black Soldier Fly(BSF), Hermetia illucens, to determine effects of BSF on composing ability to waste-food. The distribution of BSF was defined in all parts of the country in Korea. Its main habitat was found to be areas near cattle sheds, manure sheds, living waste dump grounds, and food waste dump grounds. Observed characteristics of BSF by developmental stage may be summarized as follows: eggs were a long oval shape of 886.9±19.7 ㎛ in major axis and 190.1±9.7 ㎛ in minor axis; they were 24.0±1.6 ㎍ in weight. One adult insect laid 1001±247 eggs in quantity; days to hatch from eggs (27℃, 60% R.H.) were 81.3±12.5 hours. Larvae which were hatched appeared to be close to white and turned into pale yellow as being last instar larva. Last instar larva ranged from 20.7±1.1 mm in size, the length of larval stage was approximately 15～20 days. Pupae exhibited red brown, 19.2±1.1 mm in size; pupal state lasted 15.5±1.4 days for female, 14.7±1.4 days for male, exhibiting the tendency of males having shorter period than females. Adult insects were sized about 13～20 mm and colored black.

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.

본 논문은 음식물쓰레기의 퇴비화에 타당성을 위한 총론적인 논문이다, 또한 다양한 연구논문들을 조사함으로써 음식물 쓰레기의 퇴비화를 통해 얻어진 최종산물이 휘발성 유기화합물 및 냄새제거를 위한 바이오필터로서 적합성을 제고해 보고자 하였다. 우선 음식물쓰레기는 높은 유기물 함유량을 가지고 있어 퇴비화에 적합하지만 반면 높은 수분함량과 물리적으로 낮은 강도로 인해 퇴비화 과정을 어렵게 할 수 있다. 많은 연구자들에 의해 퇴비를 이용한 바이오필터링에 대한 연구가 진행중임에도 불구하고, 명확한 메커니즘의 규명이 되어 있지 않고 있으며 특히 음식물쓰레기에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 특히 음식물쓰레기 퇴비의 바이오필터로서의 사용가능성에 대한 기본적이고 중요한 자료를 제공하고자 한다.

From results of three components analysis about food waste, moisture content appeared high in order of school(89.1%), townhouse(64.9%), apartment(63.2%) and home(63.2%). And content of ash also appeared high in order of school(8.8%), townhouse(6.3%), apartment(5.4%) and home(4.2%). This is judged as cause of difference of moisture content according to emission-source, diversity of kind of cooked food and volume-rate disposal system which is not performed. Meanwhile, combustible content is 10.9~32.6% and it is the most highest in order of home, apartment, townhouse and school. And big difference of standard deviation of apartment and townhouse is judged as difference of homogeneity due to co-emission of food waste. In addition, Low heating value appeared high in order of home(1086.07 kcal/kg), apartment(1033.69 kcal/kg), townhouse (678.07 kcal/kg) and school(9.18 kcal/kg). And the reason that heating value of school is very low is error about simple formula which is applied when moisture content is more than 50%. And it can be confirmed that this is difficult in analysis of Low heating value of food waste.

음식물 폐기물 침출수를 처리하는 분리막 결합 고온 혐기성소화공정(생물학적 반응조) (Anaeorobic Membrane Bioreactor, AnMBR)의 파일럿 운전에서 분리막의 교차여과 속도와 막간압력이 파울링에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 연구 결과 정압여과 하에서 교차여과 속도가 증가할수록 파울링의 속도는 현격히 감소되었다. 그러나 이와 같은 영향은 낮은 막간압력에서 더욱 효과적이었다. 막간압력이 증가할수록 여과대상 물질의 압축성으로 인해 투과성이 상대적으로 낮은 파울링층(혹은 케익층)이 분리막 표면에 형성된 것에 기인된 듯하다. 여과대상 시료의 입도분석을 해 본 결과 입자크기는 약 10~100mum 범위에서 분포하였고 이에 따라 브라운확산에 의한 역수송보다 분리막 표면에서 교차여과에 의해 발생하는 전단력이 입자의 역수송에 더욱 기여하고 있음을 예측할 수 있었으며 이는 AnMBR의 연속운전을 통해 재확인할 수 있었다. 운전 후 막 부검을 실시한 결과 유기 및 무기 파울링이 모두 관찰되었으나 어느 것이 지배적인 파울링 기작을 나타내는지는 앞으로 더욱 연구가 필요하다. 무기 파울링의 경우 대부분 분리막 표면에서 스케일링 형성이 지배적이었으며, 따라서 분리막의 공극 막힘에 주로 기여하는 작은 콜로이드성 유기물질의 경우 분리막 표면에서 전단력에 의한 역수송 효과는 그다지 크지 않을 것으로 사료된다.

The commission assessment and cost analysis of a measuring rate system of food waste were performed to account a total budget. The selling price of tax clearance was between about 240 wons and 270 wons, a vinyl bag was sold at from about 260 wons to 290 wons, based on a vessel size of 5L. After one year the measured rate system was enforced, the total cost for buying vessels in the Daejeon metropolitan city area was accounted about 720 million wons. Purchasing cost of bar code tax clearance and vinyl bags were decreased to 215 million wons due to the reduction rate, while the selling cost was increased to 328 million wons, compared with the existing cost. Therefore, the total saving cost was 2,639 million wons per year in the city.

The purpose of this study was to investigate several aspects of eating out behavior especially in relation to food waste. The data were collected from 620 housewives in Jeonbuk area but, except for 134 case not eating out . The 66.9% of subjects ate eating out 1 to 2 times monthly. The younger in age, higher in education level and employed housewives, higher in monthly income have a more increase in eating out frequency. In the 50.8% of subjects food rest was rare when eating out. The higher in educational level and higher in monthly income have an inclination to more food waste. The 51.4% of subjects don't know [Good Menu System]. We housewives should order a planned and moderate food amount when eating out, and make an effort normally anywhere for the reduction of food waste, and then the wasted food and food rubbish will be reduced. Besides this, the restaurants should practice [Food Bank] & [Good Menu System] and the academic world should make further researches on this field. Moreover the government administration should enlighten the people and have a public information for the more reasonable food culture.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of application levels of food waste compost andmineral nitrogen in 3 cuttings per annurn on the nutritive value and nutrient yields of orchardgrass (Dactylisglomerata L.). Annual food waste compos

A survey of food intake and waste rate on 60 Korean style restaurants in Seoul. The results were summarized as follows: 1. The total served weight of Pibimbab(mixed rice) was 475.66 g per person, waste rate was 6.0%, frequent side dishes were bae-chu kimchi, kak-du-gi, suk-ju-namul by the order. 2. Han- jeong-sik(Korean style full course food) were served with many kinds and varied numbers of side dishes, and waste rate of those were higher than other menu items. 3. The average serving size of Naeng-myeun(Cold noodle) was 641.00 g, and the waste rate was 11.1%. The waste rate of side dishes was about zero. 4. Man-du kuk(dumpling soup) was served 695.34 g. Most of side dishes served has high waste rate which is more than 50%, average. 5. Seol-nong tang(meat soup) was served 755.70 g, side dishes of that were simple such as kak-du-ki or paek kimchi. The average waste rate of side dishes was about 40%. Yuk-gae-jang(Hot meat soup) was 494.83 g a person, waste rate of that were 24.1%, and minimum and maximum waste rate of side dishes were 3.3, 100%, respectively. 6. Kimchi chigae(Kimchi stew) and Doen-jang chigae(fermented soy stew) were served with varied number of side dishes. 7. Deong-sim gui(grilled meat) and Pulgogi(grilled meat with sauce) were served 196.83 g and 308.98 g. The average waste rate of those were 0.7% and 5.8%, respectively. But waste rate of side dishes was 33%. We would like to decrease waste rate by proposing recommended items and weight of some food for 「Good Menu」.

This study evaluated the biochemical methane potential (BMP) of primary sludge, secondary sludge, and food waste in batch anaerobic mono-digestion tests, and investigated the effects of mixture ratio of those organic wastes on methane yield and production rate in batch anaerobic co-digestion tests, that were designed based on a simplex mixture design method. The BMP of primary sludge, secondary sludge and food waste were determined as 234.2, 172.7, and 379.1 mL CH4/g COD, respectively. The relationships between the mixing ratio of those organic wastes with methane yield and methane production rate were successfully expressed in special cubic models. Both methane yield and methane production rate were estimated as higher when the mixture ratio of food waste was higher. At a mixing ratio of 0.5 and 0.5 for primary sludge and food waste, the methane yield of 297.9 mL CH4/g COD was expected; this was 19.4% higher than that obtained at a mixing ratio of 0.3333, 0.3333 and 0.3333 for primary sludge, secondary sludge, and food waste (249.5 mL CH4/g COD). These findings could be useful when designing field-scale anaerobic digersters for mono- and co-digestion of sewage sludges and food waste.

Herein , the effect of changes in the organic loading rate in anaerobic digestion was evaluated. The experiment was carried out by a laboratory -scale semi-continuous stirred tank reactor, and feedstock was food-waste leached. The organic loading rate was increased by 0.5 kgVS/m3 in each phase from 1.0 kgVS/m3 to 4.0 kgVS/m3. At the end of the operation, to check the failure of the reactor, the organic loading rate was increased by 1.0 kgVS/m3 in each phase and reached 6.0 kgVS/m3. This shows that the biogas yield decreased as organic loading rate increased. Biogas production seemed to be unstable at 3.5–6.0 kgVS/m3. Moreover, biogas production dramatically fell to approximately 0 mL at 6.0 kgVS/m3, which was decided as the operation failure on the 16th day of the las tphase. The result of the reactor analysis shows that the cumulation of volatile fatty acid increased as the organic loading rate increased. This seems to occur due to the decreasein pH in the reactor and led to extinction of anaerobic bacteria, which were the biogas products. Although the buffer compound (alkalinity) could prevent the decline in pH, the concentration of alkalinity was found to be lacking at a high organic loading rate

Food waste is both an industrial and residential source of pollution, and there has been a great need for food waste reduction. As a preliminary step in this study, waste reduction is quantitatively modeled. This study presents two models based on kinetics: a simple kinetic model and a mass transport-shrinking model. In the simple kinetic model, the smaller is the reaction rate constant ratio k1 , the lower the rate of conversion from the raw material to intermediate products. Accordingly, the total elapsed reaction time becomes shorter. In the mass transport-shrinking model, the smaller is the microbial decomposition resistance versus the liquid mass transfer resistance, the greater is the reduction rate of the radius of spherical waste particles. Results showed that the computed reduction of waste mass in the second model agreed reasonably with that obtained from a few experimantal trials of biodegradation, in which the microbial effect appeared to dominate. All calculations were performed using MATLAB 2020 on PC.

This study was performed to test the feasibility of thermophilic (55oC) co-digestion of municipal sewage sludge and food wastes. The management variables of co-digestion were the mixed ratios of municipal sewage sludge and food waste hydraulic retention times (HRTs). During the operation of thermophilic co-digestion, the reactor pH ranged from 7.0 to 7.5 and the reactor alkalinity remained above 3,200 to 4,000 mg/L as CaCO3. The volatile fatty acids concentration increased as the HRT shortened from 20 days to 10 days and the mixture ratio increased to 1:4, but did not reach toxic levels for co-digestion of sewage sludge and food wastes. Methane productivity increased gradually as the organic loading rate increased. Maximum methane productivity reached 1.03v/v-d at an HRT of 10 days and at the mixture ratio of 1:4. The TVS removal efficiency decreased from 70.6% to 58.3% as the HRT shortened from 20 days to 10 days. TVS removal efficiency ranged from 57.0% to 77% during the entire operation. It is likely that thermophilic co-digestion of sewage sludge and food wastes is a very effective method both to environmentally treat food waste and to economically produce gas for energy.

Livestock manure treatments have become a more serious problem because massive environmental pollutions such as green and red tides caused by non-point pollution sources from livestock manures have emerged as a serious social issue. In addition, more food wastes are being produced due to population growth and increased income level. Since the London Convention has banned the ocean dumping of wastes, some other waste treatment methods for land disposal had to be developed and applied. At the same time, researches have been conducted to develop alternative energy sources from various types of wastes. As a result, anaerobic digestion as a waste treatment method has become an attractive solution. In this study has three objectives: first, to identify the physical properties of the mixture of livestock wastewater and food waste when combining food waste treatment with the conventional livestock manure treatment based on anaerobic mesophilic digestion; second, to find the ideal ratio of waste mixture that could maximize the collection efficiency of methane (CH4) from the anaerobic digestion process; and third, to promote CH4 production by comparing the biodegradability. As a result of comparing the reactors R1, R2, and R3, each containing a mixture of food waste and livestock manure at the ratio of 5:5, 7:3, and 3:7, respectively, R2 showed the optimum treatment efficiencies for the removal of Total Solids (TS) and Volatile Solids (VS), CH4 production, and biodegradability.

본 연구에서는 음식물류폐기물 종량제 방식 중에 하나인 RFID(Radio frequency identification, 이하 RFID)기반 음식물류폐기물 관리시스템 중 개별계량방식을 사용하고 있는 공동주택의 음식물류폐기물 배출량을 조사하여 원단위를 파악하고자 본 시스템을 사용하고 있는 2년 이상 된 아파트 3곳을 조사하여 원단위를 분석하엿다. 그 결과, 아파트 2년간 1인당 1일 평균 원단위 발생량은 2016년에서 0.140kg/인/일, 2017년에 0.134kg/인/일로 산출되었으며, 2년 평균은 0.137kg/인/일로 나타났다. 계절별로는 봄<겨울<가을<여름의 순을 보였으며, 1년차보다 2년 차에 더 적은 원단위를 나타내었다. 가구원수가 적을수록 원단위가 높아지는 경향을 나타내었으며, 공급면적이 작을수록 높은 원단위를 보였다. 지금까지 생활수준이 높으면 발생량이 높다는 것과는 반대의 결과이며, 역으로 전술한 것과 같이 1인가구 등에서 발생량이 증가하는 경향과 같다. 본 결과 값들은 RFID 시스템에 기록된 2년간의 실질 데이터를 조사 및 분석한 신뢰성이 높은 데이터로서 향후 음식물류폐기물 정책 수립 시 유용한 기초자료로서 활용되기를 기대한다.
