[0002] Kitchen waste refers to the garbage generated in daily life and food processing, catering services, unit catering and other activities, including discarded vegetable leaves, leftovers, fruit peels, eggshells, tea dregs, bones, etc. Its main sources are household kitchens, restaurants, hotels, canteens, markets and other food processing related industries. The oil content of kitchen waste is not high, and the oil extraction rate of each ton of kitchen waste is only 0.8% to 1.2%. However, the oil extraction rate can be an important indicator of kitchen waste resource utilization.
[0003] The industrial oil extracted from kitchen waste can be used to produce biodiesel, which can become a biofuel for internal combustion engines, a typical "green energy". According to relevant data, according to the current technical level, 500 kg of biodiesel can be extracted from 600 kg of "water oil". The use of biodiesel can reduce the emission of harmful gases from city motor vehicles by 70%. The recycling of kitchen waste will drive the development of related industries and increase the government's tax revenue. In the face of the potential kitchen waste recycling market driven by the catering industry, this part of the tax revenue is one of the contributions to the government's revenue. However, the existing kitchen waste treatment method generally has the problem of low oil extraction rate. SUMMARY

[0032] Figure 2 is a kind of kitchen garbage oil extraction optimization system schematic diagram provided by the embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The present application will be further described below with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with preferred embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0034] Before introducing the embodiments of the present application, the idea of the present application is described as follows:
[0035] The general kitchen garbage pretreatment process is: "material receiving + large material sorting (crushing and pulping) + extrusion dewatering + sand and impurity removal + three-phase separation". The large material sorting is a crucial step in the kitchen garbage pretreatment system, and it can remove 10% to 15% of large materials and has a certain garbage crushing effect. The extraction rate of kitchen garbage oil is related to the water content of the garbage. According to the different conditions of kitchen garbage, the water content of kitchen garbage fluctuates greatly. After kitchen garbage is drained and enters the material receiving section, part of the water is filtered out. Therefore, the water content of kitchen garbage entering the large material sorting stage is too low, which leads to insufficient water content of the garbage slurry obtained after the kitchen garbage is sorted by large materials, resulting in poor oil leaching effect of kitchen garbage.
[0036] In order to solve the problem of poor oil leaching effect of kitchen garbage in the above-mentioned existing method, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for improving the extraction rate of kitchen garbage oil. The method of the embodiment collects, stores and redistributes the kitchen garbage leachate, so that the water content of the crushed garbage slurry is maintained in the range most beneficial to oil leaching, thereby achieving the effect of increasing the oil leaching of the crushed garbage slurry of kitchen garbage without additional water and improving the extraction rate of kitchen garbage oil.
[0037] EMBODIMENT
[0038] The embodiment of the present application specifically provides a kitchen garbage oil extraction optimization method, as shown in Figure 1 The method comprises the following steps:
[0039] S1, pretreating kitchen garbage to seep out leachate;
[0040] S2. Real-time monitoring of the moisture content of the pretreated kitchen waste, and partially remixing the kitchen waste and the leachate therefrom according to changes in the moisture content; wherein the ratio of the leachate mixture is regulated according to the real-time monitored moisture content of the pretreated kitchen waste, so that the moisture content of the pretreated kitchen waste is always maintained within the range of 50% to 65%, thereby facilitating oil leaching;
[0041] S3. Extracting oil from the pre-treated kitchen waste.
[0042] Partially remixing the kitchen waste and the leachate therefrom in step S2 includes the following steps:
[0043] S21. Collecting and storing leachate leaked from the kitchen waste using a leachate storage device, the leachate including leachate leaked from the kitchen waste in the waste collection device and leachate leaked after the kitchen waste enters the receiving hopper. Specifically, the leachate storage device is configured as a leachate collection and storage tank. After the kitchen waste enters the receiving hopper, some water leaks out (generally, the receiving hopper in the treatment process has a waste drain function), forming leachate, which is then collected and stored in the leachate collection and storage tank.
[0044] S22. Mix the kitchen waste with the leachate according to a preset ratio, and obtain a garbage slurry through large-matter sorting and processing; set an outlet at the bottom of the leachate collection and storage tank and connect one or more leachate lifting pumps; the leachate lifting pump pumps the leachate through a pipeline into the crushing device; the receiving hopper receives the kitchen waste in the garbage collection device and transports it to the crushing device. Because the leachate contains broken shell particles that can easily clog the pipeline, in some preferred embodiments, a filter can be added or the leachate can be allowed to settle. The type and lift of the leachate lifting pump are selected according to actual conditions, and a variable frequency centrifugal pump is generally selected; because impurities in the leachate can affect the oil extraction rate, a high impurity content in the leachate will lead to insufficient water distribution. Under the condition that the pipeline flow rate remains unchanged, a high impurity content in the leachate will inevitably lead to a decrease in the water content of the garbage slurry after the kitchen waste is crushed. Specifically, the kitchen waste and leachate are mixed in a preset ratio of 2:1, and the mixture is processed through large-matter sorting to obtain a garbage slurry. In some embodiments, the crushing device adopts a large-matter sorting device, and the outlet of the leachate lifting pump is connected to the feed port of the large-matter sorting device with a pipe, and a flow meter is provided to ensure the ratio of kitchen waste and leachate. The flow meter is connected to a remote PLC controller (Programmable Logic Controller, PLC). The controller is also used to control the amount of kitchen waste raw material input after drainage.
[0045] S23. The crushed garbage slurry is injected from a lower position into a higher extrusion dehydration device through a plunger pump, and the extrusion dehydration device performs extrusion dehydration treatment on the garbage slurry.
[0046] S24, monitoring the water content of the garbage slurry before and after the extrusion dewatering in real time, and adjusting the mixing ratio of the kitchen garbage and the leachate in step S12 according to the change of the water content of the garbage slurry. Specifically, the water content of the garbage slurry before and after the extrusion dewatering is monitored in real time by the following two ways:
[0047] (1) The dry and wet is judged by the hydraulic pressure of the plunger pump. When the hydraulic pressure of the plunger pump is too large, it indicates that the garbage slurry of the garbage crushing device is dry and the water content is low. When the hydraulic pressure of the plunger pump is too small, it indicates that the garbage slurry of the garbage crushing device is wet and the water content is high. The normal range of the hydraulic pressure of the plunger pump is generally 15-17Mpa.
[0048] (2) When the garbage is extruded and dewatered by the spiral, the effect of the extrusion dewatering is judged according to the current fluctuation of the extrusion dewatering device. Too wet or too dry is not allowed. When the current of the extrusion dewatering machine is too large, the spiral propulsion is blocked and the current rises, indicating that the water content of the garbage slurry is too low. On the contrary, when the water content of the garbage slurry is high, the current of the extrusion dewatering machine is lower than the normal value. The normal range of the current is generally 15-20A.
[0049] By monitoring the water content of the garbage slurry before and after the extrusion dewatering, the water content of the kitchen garbage can be kept in the range of 50%-65% which is beneficial to the oil extraction when the oil is extracted, so as to maximize the oil extraction rate.
[0050] The embodiment of the present application also provides a kitchen garbage oil extraction optimization system, such as Figure 2As shown, the kitchen waste pretreatment module includes a kitchen waste pretreatment module, a grease extraction device; the kitchen waste pretreatment module is pretreated by the steps of the above method; the grease extraction device extracts grease from the pretreated kitchen waste. The kitchen waste pretreatment module further comprises: a garbage collection device, a receiving hopper, a leach storage device, a leach lifting pump, a crushing device, a plunger pump, an extrusion dewatering device, a control device; the garbage collection device is placed in the kitchen waste to be pretreated; the receiving hopper receives the kitchen waste in the garbage collection device and transports it to the crushing device; the leach storage device collects the leach from the kitchen waste in turn through the garbage collection device and the receiving hopper; the leach lifting pump pumps the leach in the leach storage device into the crushing device and mixes with the kitchen waste; the crushing device separates the kitchen waste into large material and obtains garbage slurry; the plunger pump pumps the garbage slurry into the extrusion dewatering device; the extrusion dewatering device extrudes and dewatering the garbage slurry; the control device includes a PLC controller, which adjusts the amount of leach output by the leach lifting pump according to the hydraulic pressure value fed back by the plunger pump and the current value fed back by the extrusion dewatering device, thereby adjusting the ratio of leach and kitchen waste. After the garbage slurry is extruded and dewatered by the extrusion dewatering device, it enters the sand and impurity removal device for sand and impurity removal treatment, and then enters the three-phase separation device for three-phase separation to remove solids and water, obtaining crude grease. The crude grease is purified by the grease extraction device to obtain purified grease.
[0051] Test example
[0052] The kitchen waste is extracted by the method of the present embodiment and the existing method respectively, and the test results are shown in Table 1. The grease extraction rate of each ton of kitchen waste after pretreatment by the method of the present embodiment is increased from 0.8% to 1.2% to 1.5% to 1.8%, and the extracted grease can be recycled (for example: used for aviation oil), which is expected to increase annual income by 1 million to 1.5 million yuan, bringing significant economic benefits. In addition, after saponification of the grease, some substances such as solid sterols, high molecular alcohols, hydrocarbons, pigments and fat-soluble vitamins are not soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, which are collectively referred to as unsaponifiable matter. The content of unsaponifiable matter in the grease should be limited within a certain range. The higher the content of unsaponifiable matter, the worse the quality of the grease. The test results show that the moisture content and impurity content of the grease extracted by the existing method is 1% to 3%, while the moisture content and impurity content of the grease extracted by the method of the present embodiment is only 0.1% to 0.38%; the unsaponifiable matter content of the grease extracted by the existing method is 3% to 7%, while the unsaponifiable matter content of the grease extracted by the method of the present embodiment is only 1.49% to 1.70%; the acid value of the grease extracted by the existing method is 37.9 to 38.3 mg / g, while the acid value of the grease extracted by the method of the present embodiment is only 13.9 to 14.0 mg / g, thus it can be seen that the quality of the grease extracted by the method of the present embodiment has also been significantly improved.

[0055] The method of the embodiment is tested on the basis of raw kitchen garbage (kitchen garbage after draining) and the ratio of kitchen garbage:drainage (8:3 to 4:3), and the effect of oil extraction is the best.
[0056] Compared with the prior art method, the method of the embodiment also has the following advantages:
