[Background Art]
Korean Patent No. 156010 (registered on July 20, 1998) discloses a process for manufacturing organic lime manure by charging a limestone into a serious environmental pollution source such as a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal
excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc.
According to the Korean Patent No. 156010, a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc. are crushed and thereafter the content of moisture in the crushed organic wastes is adjusted at fifty percent. Thereafter, they are charged into a process chamber of which a steam discharging equipment is installed therein. Furthermore, some limestone having a predetermined quantity corresponding to 30~50% based on 100% of the organic wastes to be treated are charged into the process chamber and they are maintained in this chamber for twenty-four hours. As such, a cake can be manufactured and continuously it is subject to leaving alone under the air condition for two or three days in order to stabilize its state. After leaving the cake alone, it is crushed in a crusher and thereby calcium fertilizers may be produced.
Furthermore, Korean Laid-Open Patent No. 1999-0046522 (laid-open date: July 5, 1999) discloses an apparatus for producing organic lime manure by charging a limestone into a serious environmental pollution source such as a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc.
FIGS. IA and IB show the apparatus for producing organic lime manure according to the above Korean Laid-Open Patent No. 1999-0046522.
Referring to FIGS. IA and IB, the apparatus for producing organic lime manure includes a container 1 which has three agitators 2,2a,2b disposed at the inner side of the container 1 in parallel relation there between. These agitators 2,2a,2b have a horizontal shaft 201 and a stirring blade integrally formed with the shaft 201, respectively. At this time, the horizontal shaft 201 passes through the interior of the container 1 and then one end thereof is coupled to the rotational shaft of a motor 3 at the outside of the
container 1. An exhaust pipe 4 and an air-supplying pipe 5 are installed at an outer upper side of the container 1. The exhaust pipe 4 extends from an upper surface of the container 1 up to the interior of a sewage disposal facility 6. The air-supplying pipe 5 is communicated with a blower 7. Adischarge outlet Ia is formed at a one side of the lower portion of the container 1 and it is communicated with a discharge pipe 9. An opening and shutting device 8 is disposed between the discharge outlet Ia and the discharge pipe 9. The discharge pipe 9 is communicated witha grinder 10 positioned downstream thereof. A yellow earth-supplying vessel 11 is installed above the grinder 10 and a discharge pipe thereof extends from the yellow earth-supplying vessel 11 up to the interior of the grinder 10. A charging inlet Ib is formed at the upper portion of the container 1 and a charging chamber Ic is defined by an outer opening/shutting door Id and an inner opening/shutting door Ie. At this time, the outer opening/shutting door Id and the inner opening/shutting door Ie are open or closed due to operation of oil-hydraulic cylinders If,Ig.
In order to produce organic lime manure by charging a limestone into a serious environmental pollution source such as a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc., it is necessary to employ the apparatus for producing organic lime manure as shown in FIGS. IA and IB.
In addition, it is required to secure a vast area of industry and a large scale of equipment so as to install this apparatus. Accordingly, there is a problem in that an initial manufacturing cost and a maintaining cost are very highly increased. More particularly, a strong public objection for the prevention of installation of a system for processingorganic wastes, known as not-in-my-back-yard or the NIMBY syndrome, may be frequently occurred at a certain location in which the system for processing organic wastes is expected to install. In other words, inhabitants who live next to the location are strongly against to install the system processing organic wastes
due to fly-ash and other air pollutants, such as Dioxin, NOx, a bad smell, a harmful insect, bacteria, wastewater and incomplete combustion products, which affect the surrounding area, generated while organic wastes are processed by the system.
If an apparatus for producing organic lime manure by charging a limestone into a serious environmental pollution source such as a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc. is installed at a specific location, it is required to perform a process for collecting and transporting organic wastes. Accordingly, there are some problems in that the manufacturing cost of the organic lime manure is increased and a road may be damaged and a traffic jam may be occurred. In addition, due tothe leakage of wastewater, a bad smell may be occurred and a soil environment and a water environment may be seriously contaminated. Furthermore, many harmful insects and bacteria may grow and they affect the natural environment and the living condition of the inhabitants.
In addition, an apparatus for processing a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes according to the prior art cannot rapidly move to the scene of labor for processing organic marine/aquatic wastes, in which fishes or shellfishesare inspected with a disease and thereby they are dead as a group. Furthermore, it is impossible to rapidly process the organic marine/aquatic wastes and to rapidly solve the secondary environmental problem generated from the reclamation and the destruction by fire them. Meanwhile, it is required to employ a water washing process using a great quantity of water so as to remove salt content contained in the organic wastes such as food wastes, etc. In order to perform this process, it is necessary to install sewage disposal facilities and a drying apparatus. For this purpose, a great quantity of working forces, energy, working hours, and expenses are invested in the sewage disposal facilities and consumed in the process. Consequently, this leads to the economical waste for the patient.

[Best Mode]
Hereinafter, a special vehicle for producing organic lime manure by using a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes according to a present invention will be described in detail referring to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 3 is a front view of the special vehicle 50 for producing organiclime manure according to a present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, a reaction chamber 52 is fixedly installed on an upper surface of a frame 51 of the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure. A feeding hole 53 is formed at the center upper portion of the reaction chamber 52. This feedinghole 53 is open or closed due to operation of a cylinder. A variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc. are charged through the feeding hole 53 into the reaction chamber 52 together with a limestone so as to produce the organic lime manure. An opening 54 for allowing an operator to access an interior of the reaction chamber 52 so as to clean it is formed at a one upper side of the reaction chamber 52.
A lifting device 60, which is well known to the public, is installed at a one side of the center portion of the reaction chamber 52. In this lifting device 60, in order to charge organic wastes into the reaction chamber 52, a chain 61 is operated after receiving a driving force generated from a chain driving motor 62 and thereby a storage lift 40 containing the organicwastes ascends toward the feeding hole 53. Continuously, the organic wastes are charged through the feeding hole 53 into the reaction chamber 52.
Automatic pressure control valves 56a,56b, a thermometer 59a, and a pressure gauge 59b are installed on the upper surface of the reaction chamber 52. The automatic pressure control valves 56a,56b control the inner pressure of the reaction chamber 52 by exhausting a high pressure of steam in the reaction chamber 52 to the outside thereof, which is generated due to the reaction between the organic wastes and the organic lime manure in the
reaction chamber 52. The thermometer 59a senses a reaction temperature at the interior of the reaction chamber 52 and displays the sensed reaction temperature. The pressure gauge 59b senses the inner pressure in the interior of the reaction chamber 52 and displays the sensed inner pressure. In the meantime, an outlet 71 for exhausting organic lime manure to the outside of the reaction chamber 52 is formed at a one side of a lower portion of the reaction chamber 52.
FIG. 4 is a left side view of the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4, a first conveyor78 for making the organic lime manure exhausted through the outlet 71 from the reaction chamber 52 move at a predetermined distance is installed at an outside of the outlet 71. A one side of the first conveyor 78 is fixed to the frame 51 by means of a bracket 78b. This first conveyor 78 may operate by receiving a driving force generated from a driving motor 80.
A second conveyor 79 for making the organic lime manure automatically move in a longitudinal direction of the reaction chamber 52 is installed at a position adjacent to the other side of the first conveyor 78. At this time, one sideof the first conveyor 78 is located over one side of the second conveyor 79 and thereby they overlap one another. At this time, first cylinders 82a,82b for controlling the height of the second conveyor 79 are installed below one distal ends of the second conveyor 79.
FIG. 5 is a rear view of the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, second cylinders 83 for controllingthe height of the second conveyor 79 are installed below the other distal ends of the second conveyor 79.
FIG. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of the reaction chamber 52 in the special vehicle for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention, FIG. 7 is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 6, and FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the reaction chamber 52 in the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention.
Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, an exhausting passageway 58 is defined by
rounded portions 52a formed at a lower side of the reaction chamber 52. A feed screw 73 for exhausting organic- lime manure produced in the reaction chamber 52 to the outside is installed in the exhausting passageway 58 along the longitudinal direction of the reaction chamber 52. An agitator 75 for stirring organic wastes and a limestone is installed across the inner portion of the reaction chamber 52 along the longitudinal direction of the reaction chamber 52. The agitator 75 comprises a stirring blade 77 and a stirring rod 76, which are integrally formed with each other.
Meanwhile, the feeding hole 53 formed at the center upper portion of the reaction chamber 52 is open or closed due to operation of a third cylinder 53a that is fixedly installed to the upper side of the reaction chamber 52. Packing 57 is disposed at both distal sides of the feeding hole 53 so that the interior of the reaction chamber 52 can be maintained under the airtight sealed state when the feeding hole 53 being closed.
Referring • to FIGS. 3 and 5 again, an agitator motor 74 for simultaneously rotating the stirring rod 76 and the feed screw 73 is installed at the one side ofthe upper surface of the frame 51. The stirring rod 76 and the feed screw 73 are operated by receiving a rotational force generated from the agitator motor 74 through a belt 75c and pulleys 75a,75b. A controller 55 for controlling the first to the third cylinders 82a,82b,83,53a, the conveyor drivingmotor 80, and the agitator motor 74, etc is installed at the other side of the upper surface of the frame 51.
FIGS. 9 and 10 are enlarged views of an "A"part as illustrated in FIG. 4, for showing an operational state that one sides of the first conveyor 78 and the second conveyor 79 ascend in the special vehicle 50 due to the operation of the first cylinders 82a,82b, and FIGS. 11 and 12 are enlarged views of an "B" part as illustrated in FIG. 5, for showing anoperational state that the other sides of the first conveyor 78 and the second conveyor 79 ascend in the special vehicle 50 due to the operation of the second cylinders 83.
In the accompanying drawings, the reference numeral "63" represents a
placing uniton which the storage lift 40 is snugly located. Also, the reference numerals "78a","79a" represent anti-drop members for preventing the organic lime manure from being dropped to the outside.
Hereinafter, the operation of the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention as above will be described in detail with reference drawings.
At first, an operator drives the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention to the place of origin in which a variety of concentrated organic marine/aquatic wastes including food wastes, human or animal excrements, sewage sludge, multiple dead domestic animals, multiple dead fishes or shellfishes, etc. are generated.
In this place, organic wastes and a limestone are charged into the reaction chamber 52 of the special vehicle 50. In order to charge the organic wastes and the limestone into the reaction chamber 52, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the operators manipulates the controller 55 at first. Then, the feeding hole 53 is open due to the operation of the third cylinder 53a. Thereafter, the storage lift 40 containing the organic wastes and the limestone therein is snugly located onto the placing unit 63 of the lifting device 60. Under this state, if the operator operates the controller 55 so as to drive the chain driving motor 62 in a forward direction, the chain 61 is rotated and thereby the placing unit 63 begins to be moved upwards.
If the storage lift 40 approaches a predetermined position higher than the feeding hole 53, then the organic wastes and the limestone contained in the storage lift 40 begin to be charged through the feeding hole 53 into the reaction chamber 52. At this time, ifthe operator operates the controller 55 so as to drive the chain driving motor 62 in a backward direction, the chain 61 is rotated and thereby the placing unit 63 begins to be moved downwards. After completing descending of the placing unit 63, the hollow storage lift 40 is replaced with a new storage lift 40 containing the organic wastes and the limestone therein. As the structure and operation of the lifting device
60 are well known in the related technical industry, the detailed description of these features will be omitted herein.
Preferably, the limestone constitutes up to about 30 weight percent and up to about 50 weight percent of the organic wastes 100 percent. Powder materials selected from the group consisting of the natural grass, the dried grass, the chaff, the sawdust, the humus soil, the marble, the Macbansuk, the yellow earth, the selfish, the crustacean, the silicon, the siliceous stone, the siliceous clay, etc. are additionally charged into the reaction chamber
52 so as to control the moisture and to enhance the quality of manure within the reaction chamber 52.
After completing the charge of organic wastes and limestone into the reaction chamber 52, the operator operates the controller 55 so as to drive the third cylinder 53a in a backward direction and thereby the feeding hole
53 is closed. At this time, the aperture between the reaction chamber 52 and the feeding hole 53 is completely sealed by means of the packing 57.
Under this state, if the operator operates the controller 55 so as to drive the agitator motor 74, the rotational force generated from the agitator motor 74 is transmitted to the pulleys 75a,75b via the belt 75c, as shown in FIGS. 6 and FIG. 8. As a result, the stirring rod 76 and the feed screw 73 are simultaneously rotated together so that the stirring blade 77 is also rotated. Consequently, the organic wastes and the limestone charged into the reaction chamber 52 are mixed with each other. Accordingly, the mixing effect given by the operation of the feed screw 73 and the stirring blade 77 are enhanced.
When the organic wastes and the limestone are mixed with each other due to the operation of the feed screw 73 and the stirring blade 77, the organic wastes and the limestone are reacted with each other. At this time, the moisture in the organic wastes is brought into contacted with the limestone. Accordingly, a rapid digestive reaction is proceeded and an exothermic reaction is also proceeded at a temperature of about 150° C. As a result, the moisture contained in the waste organics is substantially transformed into
the vapor due to the heat generated by the exothermic reaction. Accordingly, the internal pressure of the reaction chamber 52 is increased.
If the reaction time of the organic wastes and the limestone lengthens due tothe operation as described above, the internal pressure of the reaction chamber 52 is further increased. If the internal pressure of the reaction chamber 52 is higher than a set pressure of the automatic pressure control valves 56a,56b installed at the upper side of the reaction chamber 52, the vapor is automatically exhausted to the outside through the automatic pressure control valves 56a,56b. At this time, the thermometer 59a, and the pressure gauge 59b installed at one side of the upper surface of the reaction chamber 52 measuresand display the internal temperature and the internal pressure of the reaction chamber 52, respectively.
As described above, when the organic wastes and the limestone are reacted with each other in the reaction chamber 52 for about 30 to 40minutes, the moisture contained in the organic wastes is rapidly exhausted to the outside as a vapor via the automatic pressure control valves 56a,56b. As a result, there is no wastewater in the reaction chamber 52. Also, there is no terriblestench in the reaction chamber 52 due to the inherent physical characteristic of the limestone. Furthermore, it is possible to obtain the sterilizing power and the insecticidal power due to the exothermic reaction using the limestone. The crushed organic wastes are rapidly transformed into the organic manure by using the limestone. Accordingly, the salt content, the harmful heavy metal and the toxic materials may be neutralized. Consequently, it is possible to prevent the secondary environment pollution from being generated.
When the organic wastes introduced into the reaction chamber 52 are mixed and reacted with the limestone for about 30 to 40minutes by using the feed screw 73 and the stirring blade 77, the organic lime manure having a particle shape is produced.
Hereinafter, a process for exhausting the organic lime manure produced as described above will be described in detail referring to the accompanying
drawings.
At first, the operator operates the controller 55 so as to drive the conveyor driving motor 80 under the state that the mixing of the organic wastes is continuously performing with the aid of the feed screw 73 and the stirring blade 77 in the reaction chamber 52. Then, the first and the second conveyors 78,79 begin to be operated. Under this state, if the outlet 71 is open, the organic lime manure having a powder shape is exhausted to the outside of the reaction chamber 52 due to operation of the feed screw 73. At this time, the organic lime manure is compulsorily exhausted due to operation of the first and the second conveyors 78,79.
In the meantime, the remaining organic lime manures in the reaction chamber 52 are moved downwards through the exhausting passageway 58 due to their own weight and then they are exhausted to the outside due to the operation of the feed screw 73. If the organic lime manures reach up to the distal end of the second conveyor 79, they are loaded onto a vehicle that is standing by. Thereby, they are transported to accompanying process for sorting and packing. After completing the sorting and the packing processes, they are put on the market.
Meanwhile, the first cylinders 82a,82b installed below one side of the second conveyor 79 and the second cylinder 83 installed below the other side of the second conveyor 79 can becontrolled by operating the controller 55. Accordingly, the operator can adjust the height of the first and the second conveyors 78,79 to the height of the loading container of the vehicle by operating the first cylinders 82a,82b and the second cylinder 83.
FIGS. 9 and 10 are enlarged views of an "A"part as illustrated in FIG. 4, for showing an operational state that one sides of the first conveyor 78 and the second conveyor 79 ascend.
As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, if the operator operates the controlIer55 so as to extend the rods of the first cylinders 82a,82b in a state that they are under shrinking, then the rods of- the first cylinders 82a,82b begin to extend and thereby the first and the second conveyors 78,79 are
simultaneously moved upwards.
FIGS. 11 and 12 are enlarged views of an "B" part as illustrated in FIG. 5, for showing an operational state that the other side of the second conveyor 79 ascend.
As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, if the operator operates the controller 55 so as to extend the rod of the second cylinder 83 in a state that it is under shrinking, then the rod of the second cylinder 83 begin to extend and thereby the second conveyor 79 is moved upwards.
Consequently, it is possible to control the heights of the first and the second conveyors 78,79 by controlling the operation of the first and the second cylinders 82a,82b,83 in accordance with the height of the loading container of the vehicle.
FIG. 13 shows another agitator 75 installed in the reaction chamber 52 in the special vehicle 50 for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention, and FIG. 14 is a longitudinal sectional view of the reaction chamber 52 as shown in FIG. 13. As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, the supporting rods 76a extend from an outer circumferential surface of the stirring rod 76, which is rotated due to operation of the agitator motor 74(referred to FIG. 3 or FIG. 5), and they are radially arranged apart from each other. These supporting rods 76a are spaced from each other on the outer circumferential surface of the stirring rod 76 over the total length thereof at a predetermined distance.
The stirring blade 77 for inducing a smooth reaction between the organic wastes and the limestone is provided between the stirring rod 76 and the supporting rod 76a. A stirring piece 76b for effectively mixing the organic wastes with the limestone is formed at the distal end of the stirring rod 76 and the supporting rod 76a, respectively.
Referring now to FIG. 8, in the agitator 75 as described above, a rotational force generated from the agitator motor 74(referred to FIG. 3 or FIG. 5) is transmitted from the pulley 75b to the pulley 75a via the belt 75c so that the stirring rod 76 of the agitator 75 is rotated. Due to this
operation, the stirring blade 77 is continuously rotated so that the organic wastes are uniformly mixed with the limestone in the reaction chamber 52. At this time, the organic wastes are more effectively mixed with the limestone with the aid of the constitution and the operation of the stirring piece 76b, which is formed at the distal ends of the stirring rod 76 and the supporting rod 76a, respectively.
FIG. 15 shows a state that a cute is installed at one side of the second conveyor in the special vehicle for producing organiclime manure according to the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 15, a one end of a main chute 91 is hingedly fixed to the distal end of the second conveyor 79 by means of a hinge 92. The main chute 91 can move upwards and downwards with centering about the hinge 92. An auxiliary chute 94 is installed below the other end of the main chute 91. This auxiliary chute 94 can be rotated by means of a rotational shaft 93 installed on the frame 51(referred to FIG.3).
Due to this structure, the organic lime manure transported through the second conveyor 79 may be moved to a specific vessel or a vehicle via the main chute 91. If the main chute 92 is overlapping with the auxiliary chute 94 as needed, the moving distance of the organic lime manure can lengthen. Since the moving direction of the auxiliary chute 94 can be changed with easy due to operation of the rotational shaft 93, the exhaustion efficiency of the organic lime manure is highly increased. [Industrial Applicability]
As described above, the special vehicle for producing organic lime manure according to the present invention is capable of instantly processing organic wastes including food wastes and thereafter instantly producing organic lime manure. Furthermore, the special vehicle does not employ any additional sewage disposalfacility and working forces. Furthermore, it can solve the public complaints relative to the environmental pollution without occurring the NIMBY syndromefor the prevention of installation of a system for processing organic wastes. Furthermore, the special vehicle is considered
as a most effective treatment system for organic wastes including food wastes since it is possible to greatly reduce the manpower loss and the public expense incurred in line of public duty for solving the environmental pollution. Furthermore, it is possible to extend the expected life span of a reclaimed land and to reduce the requirement for installing additional reclaimed land. As a consequence it is possible to reduce the process time within a one hour, which gives a considerable reduction in costs and manpower.
Thus, in the process technique according to the present invention, a general physicalproperty of the limestone is mainly used to process the serious environmental pollution source. According to the present invention, it is possible to achieve the curtailment of energy and to solve the secondary environmental problems generated from the reclamation and the destruction by fire the organic wastes. More particularly, this invention exactly corresponds to the Eco-2 project, which is an environmental and economical project executed by the Korean government.
