[0033] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a pulping machine for organic wet waste such as kitchen waste and food scraps, comprising a receiving bin 1, a drain tank 2, a magnetic separator 3, a coarse crusher 4, a pulping machine 5, and a separator 6.
[0034] The receiving hopper 1 is equipped with a first twin-shaft screw conveyor 11 at its bottom. A drain tank 2 is connected to the receiving hopper 1 and stores the drain water generated by the receiving hopper 1. A magnetic separator 3 is located downstream of the receiving hopper 1 and is used to remove iron from the material. The first twin-shaft screw conveyor 11 transports the material from the receiving hopper 1 to the magnetic separator 3. A coarse crusher 4 is located downstream of the magnetic separator 3. The processing capacity of the coarse crusher 4 is greater than or equal to the output of the first twin-shaft screw conveyor 11. A pulping machine 5 is located downstream of the coarse crusher 4 and is equipped with a rotating chain unit that acts on the material. The rotating chain unit ensures that the slurry particle size is less than or equal to 8 mm and the organic matter content of the slurry is greater than or equal to 80%. A separator 6 is located downstream of the pulping machine 5 and is equipped with a filter screen bed for removing large solid waste and solid particles from the product of the pulping machine 5. The filter screen bed has a filter spacing of 8 mm to 15 mm.
[0035] The organic wet waste pulping machine 5 provided in this embodiment, consisting of a receiving hopper 1, a drain tank 2, a magnetic separator 3, a coarse crusher 4, a pulping machine 5, and a separator 6, has a simple structure and high efficiency. It can crush larger organic waste from kitchen and food waste and pulp it, making the pulp easier for subsequent processing. The first dual-shaft screw conveyor 11 at the bottom of the receiving hopper 1 improves conveying efficiency, thereby improving the overall operating efficiency of the mechanism. The processing capacity of the coarse crusher 4 is greater than or equal to the output of the first dual-shaft screw conveyor 11, ensuring smooth and unblocked operation of the mechanism. The spinning chain unit of the pulping machine 5 can make the slurry particle size less than or equal to 8mm and the organic matter content of the slurry greater than or equal to 80%, making the slurry easier for subsequent processing. The filter screen of the separator 6 has a filter spacing of 8mm to 15mm, which can efficiently separate impurities from the material.
[0036] In this embodiment, a sealing hydraulic cover (not shown) is provided on the top of the receiving bin 1. The sealing hydraulic cover is connected to a hydraulic cylinder, which is used to drive the sealing hydraulic cover to open or close. The inner side of the sealing hydraulic cover is made of stainless steel, and the outer side is made of carbon steel corrosion-resistant material. When unloading stops, the sealing hydraulic cover can be closed by the hydraulic cylinder to prevent the spread of odor. The entire mechanism can be configured with a hydraulic system, which includes multiple hydraulic cylinders. Each receiving bin 1 can be equipped with two sets of hydraulic cylinders to supply the sealing hydraulic cover.
[0037] There can be one or more receiving hoppers 1, used for receiving large-capacity incoming materials, storing daily incoming wet waste to meet the peak receiving and transportation needs. After the wet waste is transported to the treatment plant, it enters the workshop for unloading. The collection truck unloads both solid and liquid waste into the receiving hopper 1. When the first dual-shaft screw conveyor 11 at the bottom of the receiving hopper 1 encounters material jamming, it can automatically reverse and trigger an alarm, enabling the receiving hopper 1 to operate independently.
[0038] Specifically, the frame of the receiving bin 1 is made of Q235 steel, and the part of the receiving bin 1 that comes into contact with the material is made of SS304 stainless steel, which has strong corrosion resistance. A splash guard is installed at the entrance of the receiving bin 1 to prevent kitchen waste and leachate from splashing and seeping down.
[0039] In this embodiment, to prevent ferrous metals from the wet waste from entering subsequent processes and damaging the facilities, a magnetic separator 3 is installed before the material enters the coarse crusher 4. The magnetic separator 3 is equipped with permanent magnets and scrapers. The permanent magnets use high-performance permanent magnet cores to attract ferrous impurities mixed in the material. The scrapers continuously scrape off the impurities adsorbed on the permanent magnets, thereby achieving automatic iron removal. The magnetic induction intensity of the magnetic separator 3 is at least 90 MT. The magnetic separator 3 also includes a geared motor, frame, rollers, etc., with the permanent magnets located above the conveyor belt.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the coarse crusher 4 includes two rotating shafts 41 rotating in opposite directions. Each rotating shaft 41 is connected to a first motor 42, which drives the rotating shaft 41 to rotate. Blades are mounted on each rotating shaft 41 to crush materials to a particle size of less than 60mm. The coarse crusher 4 mainly utilizes the shearing and tearing methods generated by the two rotating shafts 41 to crush materials. During operation, the two rotating shafts 41 rotate inwards. After falling in, the material is captured by the blades mounted on the rotating shafts 41, causing the material to move downwards and be crushed simultaneously. The crushed material then falls from the discharge port below, resulting in a particle size of less than 60mm.
[0041] Specifically, the frame of the coarse crusher 4 is made of Q235 steel, and the cutter head of the coarse crusher 4 is made of alloy steel. When a large number of foreign objects cause the coarse crusher 4 to stall and become difficult to rotate, the control system connected to the coarse crusher 4 will immediately sense this and control the two rotating shafts 41 to move in the opposite direction to the working direction to release the foreign objects, so as to avoid accidents such as blade damage, shaft breakage, or motor damage.
[0042] In this embodiment, the drain tank 2 is a concrete tank. The drain tank 2 is equipped with a stirrer 21, a level gauge 22, and a drain transfer pump 23, which is a spiral vane pump. The drain transfer pump 23 is dry-installed, and the pipeline design avoids dead angles and considers sampling ports and a rinsing system. The outlet of the drain tank 2 is connected to the subsequent slurry preparation system.
[0043] like Figure 1As shown, the pulping machine 5 includes a feeding hopper 51 and a grinding chamber 52. The inlet of the feeding hopper 51 is connected to the outlet of the coarse crusher 4. A second twin-shaft screw conveyor 511 is provided at the bottom of the feeding hopper 51 for conveying the material in the feeding hopper 51 to the grinding chamber 52. The second twin-shaft screw conveyor 511 is connected to a second motor 512, which drives the second twin-shaft screw conveyor 511 to work.
[0044] The rotating chain unit is disposed within the grinding chamber 52. The grinding chamber 52 can be configured as a cylindrical vertical structure. Within the grinding chamber 52, the high-speed rotating chain unit with hammers impacts and accelerates the tumbling of the input material. Under the high-speed hammering mechanical impact, the mixture of input materials is decomposed, thereby enabling efficient pulping of organic matter and other raw materials from kitchen waste. Soft inorganic materials such as plastic bags or bottles in the raw materials are only broken or deformed, and are retained as intact as possible for easier definitional separation in downstream processes. The residence time of the material determines the shape and size of the output material.
[0045] Preferably, the pulper 5 is corrosion-resistant as a whole, and the grinding chamber 52 adopts an integrated design with the flow passage material being SS304 stainless steel. For continuous operation, considering the intermittent feeding requirements of the pulper 5, a necessary buffer silo can be configured between the coarse crusher 4 and the pulper 5, or the conveying capacity of the conveying equipment can be increased.
[0046] Specifically, the grinding chamber 52 can also be connected to a first electric flushing valve 521 and a second electric flushing valve 522, with the first electric flushing valve 521 located above the second electric flushing valve 522. The first electric flushing valve 521 is used to pump water to flush the inner wall of the grinding chamber 52. The second electric flushing valve 522 is used to pump water to flush the outlet of the grinding chamber 52, preventing the outlet from becoming blocked.
[0047] In this embodiment, the filter screen bed includes multiple rubber turntables installed side by side. These turntables are driven by chains driven by variable frequency speed-adjustable motors. The processing capacity of the filter screen bed is greater than or equal to 30m³. 3 / h.
[0048] After being crushed and pulped, the wet waste enters separator 6. Separator 6 preferably employs a disc filter to remove large pieces of solid waste and solid particles from the incoming material. Separator 6 adopts an integrated design, is corrosion-resistant throughout, and key components such as the main shaft are made of corrosion-resistant materials or treated with anti-corrosion materials. Separator 6 can effectively sort coarse materials (such as glass bottles, plates, dishes, plastics, and other debris), ensuring that brittle debris does not break during the sorting process (minimizing wear and tear on subsequent equipment and reducing processing difficulty). It has a high debris removal rate, produces clean separated debris, and has a high organic matter recovery rate. Separator 6 operates in a fully enclosed mechanized manner and is equipped with a deodorization port to prevent secondary pollution.
[0049] In this embodiment, the pulper 5 can efficiently pulp organic matter in kitchen waste and other organic waste. After the pulp is separated by the separator 6 to remove larger impurities, it enters the subsequent sedimentation tank, making the pulp easier for subsequent processing.

[0052] Unless otherwise stated, all ranges include the endpoints and all numbers between them. The terms "approximately" or "about" used with ranges apply to both endpoints of the range. Thus, "approximately 20 to 30" is intended to cover "approximately 20 to approximately 30," including at least the specified endpoints.
