2. Description of the Related Art Waste disposal is a serious problem in terms of environmental protection, and is of great social interest. Among them, with respect to organic waste, microbial treatment is useful because decomposition products and residues do not pollute the environment and energy consumption is small. In the microbial treatment of organic matter, the organic matter is mainly decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, and the residue containing microbial metabolites can be composted. For this reason, microbial treatment is applied to and implemented in household garbage (solid matter) treatment or large-scale waste treatment facilities. However, organic matter decomposition by microorganisms is performed under aerobic conditions,
It is difficult to apply to liquid waste which becomes anaerobic due to excess water, and organic waste is generally treated separately as solid and liquid.

In the treatment of liquid waste, excess sludge, odor,
Includes many issues to be solved, such as water pollution. When the solid content concentration of the liquid waste is low (that is, the BOD load is low), the waste is treated as wastewater at the basic time, but sludge is generated in the wastewater treatment. Further, in the case of a slurry having a high solid content, it is inappropriate to directly supply the slurry to a wastewater treatment facility, and at present, it is necessary to separately treat the solid content and water (sewage). Therefore, in order to treat liquid waste on land, the energy consumption is large and the cost is high even for wastewater treatment of low-concentration wastewater. It costs.

For this reason, liquid (slurry) waste discharged from fisheries factories, processing factories, liquor / food processing factories, etc., depends in large part on ocean dumping. However, ocean dumping of these wastes is desirable in terms of odor and pollution. In fact, the Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Waste and Other Dumping (London Treaty) has reduced the dumping of marine wastes since 2002. Completely banned. There is a lack of absolute capacity to treat liquid waste, which has relied heavily on marine dumping, on land, so that organic waste can be efficiently treated regardless of its form.

However, if this is to be carried out on a large scale which can be carried out industrially, there is a practical problem that the activity of the above-mentioned decomposition reaction is reduced in spite of the aerobic condition from which excess water is removed. occured. As a result of continued investigations, when the throughput increased, the biomass energy due to microbial decomposition unexpectedly increased, and due to the enormous exothermic reaction, water evaporated more than expected and the activity of the microorganisms slowed down. The result was that the microbial reaction could not be performed. In other words, in the microbial treatment of organic waste at the industrial level, while it is necessary to remove excess water from the treatment system in order to establish aerobic conditions, water that evaporates due to the heat of reaction and becomes inadequate for microbial activity It was found that it was necessary to replenish the processing system. Therefore, if wood chips are used as a filtration filter to remove excess water and replenish insufficient water, the microbial decomposition reaction can be carried out at the industrial level. At this time, the excess water once removed from the treatment system is circulated and supplied to the treatment system If it is, it is found that the complete treatment can be carried out efficiently without generating wastewater even in the case of an organic waste having an excessive amount of water. Device was completed.

It has a porous structure, so it does not reduce water retention,
It has a honeycomb-shaped conduit and a complex-shaped (large surface area) surface that allows easy entry of bacteria, while maintaining air permeability, and is viscous. Thus, wood chips provide the proper amount of moisture, air (oxygen), and temperature required for microbial survival and activity. The wood chips as described above adhere to organic matter and also act as a filter for sewage accompanying organic waste as described later.

As the wood chip source, thinning materials, construction waste materials, pruning wastes from plant trees (including weeds wastes) and the like can be widely used without any particular limitation. Since these wood chips contain lignin, which is hardly decomposed, as a main component, it takes more days to decompose the microorganisms to be described later than the organic wastes to be treated. For this reason, the function of the wood chip can be maintained for a long time, and the wood chip can be recycled for use after the decomposition treatment of the organic waste. Although the wood chip is not particularly limited, it is usually desirable to subdivide it into about 1 to 100 mm. In the present invention, as the carrier, in addition to the above-mentioned wood chips, leaves, bark, weeds, and the like, which are easily degraded by microorganisms, may be contained (hereinafter, the wood chips or these may be referred to as carriers).

The amount of the organic waste supplied to the fermenter is usually 1% by mass with respect to the wood chips (dry base).
It is desirable to be about 0/1 to 5/1. The organic waste to be subjected to the biodegradation treatment in the present invention may be derived from any animal or plant, and its form is not particularly limited, regardless of its form such as liquid or solid. Specific examples include animal and plant residues discharged from marine processing factories, alcoholic and food processing plants, garbage discharged from homes and kitchens, garbage, juice waste, shochu waste liquid, edible waste oil, okara, and liquid Anything can be treated, such as sludge. In particular, in the present invention, the organic waste may include a liquid. The liquid material here widely refers to a liquid material regardless of whether it is aqueous or oily, and may be, for example, an aqueous solution such as juice, an aqueous slurry containing solid organic matter, or an oily material such as edible waste oil.

The solid organic waste is pulverized if necessary. There is no problem if the fish bones are large in size or if they are used as they are, but it is desirable to grind them in the case of large bones such as cows and pigs. Further, among the above, it is also possible to combine the processing with a high BOD load and the processing with a low BOD load. Specifically, for example, a solid substance conventionally treated with a microorganism and a liquid substance such as a slurry that could not be treated can be mixed in advance or separately supplied to a fermenter. In addition, edible waste oil, oil mud, etc., with a high BOD load can be added to the liquid with a low BOD load. In particular, when the absolute amount of the organic substance is small and sufficient heat generation cannot be obtained in the following reaction step (2), B
It is desirable to secure heat generation by adding waste having a high OD load or the above-mentioned wood chips that are easily decomposed by microorganisms such as leaves, bark, and weeds.

(2) Microbial Decomposition Reaction Step In the present invention, in the treatment system in which the surplus water is separated,
In the presence of the decomposing bacteria, the organic waste undergoes an exothermic microbial decomposition reaction under aerobic conditions, and is mainly decomposed into carbon dioxide and water. The decomposing bacteria may be any as long as they can essentially decompose organic substances into carbon dioxide and water under aerobic conditions. Such a degrading bacterium is a bacterium that produces cellulase, which is an organic degrading enzyme, and naturally exists, including those present in the above-mentioned wood chip. Therefore, the microbial decomposition reaction spontaneously occurs by mixing the wood chip and the organic matter, but it is also preferable to increase the concentration of the degrading bacteria in the wood chip provided to the treatment system. For example, natural useful microorganisms such as photosynthetic bacteria, Bacillus bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast are collected and degraded bacteria that have increased fermentation power through several generations of culture under certain conditions are cultured to be present in the wood chip. It is also preferable to keep it.

In the latter half of the reaction, as soon as several hours have passed after the object to be treated has been supplied, the water evaporating power decreases as the reaction temperature decreases, approaching the anaerobic condition of excessive water content, and the action of decomposing bacteria decreases. Tend. Under the anaerobic condition where the treatment system is excessively hydrated, the treatment system tends to emit odor.
It is preferable to maintain the aerobic condition of about 0 to 70% to carry out the microbial decomposition reaction efficiently and without emitting odor. At this time, in order to evaporate the water, heat may be applied to the reaction system by blowing hot air as necessary. The progress of the microbial decomposition reaction can be confirmed, for example, by measuring carbon dioxide gas. In the measurement example, about 93% of the total carbon content in the object to be treated (organic matter) can be detected as carbon dioxide gas. It can be said that organic matter was almost completely decomposed.
