The present invention provides a method of reducing and controlling a hazardous substance in a process of high-value biological conversion of an urban organic waste. The method includes: 1) mixing a sludge, a first urban organic waste and an organic acid with water for acclimation to obtain an acclimatized sludge; 2) stage 1 of biological conversion: mixing the acclimatized sludge with a second urban organic waste to perform anaerobic culture; 3) stage 2 of biological conversion: adding nitrate and bacteria to continue anaerobic culture so as to obtain an organic acid. In the present invention, sludge microbes are acclimatized and then added to high-value chemicals such as acetic acid, propanoic acid and lactic acid prepared in biological conversion of the urban organic waste and then added with bacteria. Thus, by controlling pH value, microbe addition amount and nitrate concentration, the unfavorable effect of the antibiotics and heavy metal ions.

A high-efficiency food waste carbonization process using a carbonizer specially designed to function at a specific range of temperatures to work efficiently, with minimal energy input and designed to reduce volume and to produce charcoal that may be used as a fuel. The invention is designed to work with high-moisture materials such as food waste.

A waste treatment system comprises: a first hydrothermal treatment device for performing hydrothermal treatment of waste; a first solid-liquid separation device for separating a first reactant of the first hydrothermal treatment device into a solid and a liquid or slurry; a second hydrothermal treatment device for performing hydrothermal treatment of the solid of the first reactant; a second solid-liquid separation device for separating a second reactant of the second hydrothermal treatment device into a solid and a liquid or slurry; and a fermentation device for fermenting the liquid or the slurry of the first reactant and the liquid or the slurry of the second reactant.

A beverage capsule recycling assembly for preparing a beverage capsule for recycling, the beverage capsule recycling assembly having a body portion, a cutter portion integral with or attachable to the body portion, the cutter portion having a blade member to cut a lid of the beverage capsule, a first crush portion associated with the body portion, and a second crush portion, wherein when the first crush portion and the second crush portion are in a use condition, the beverage capsule can be located between the first crush portion and the second crush portion, and the first crush portion can be moved towards the second crush portion to compact the beverage capsule.

Embodiments disclosed herein provide an organic matter processing apparatus and method for the use thereof to convert organic matter into a ground and desiccated product.

An air treatment system is provided to treat the air interacting with the organic matter.

Proposed is a system for measuring a reduction in a weight of food waste, the system including a food waste disposal apparatus measuring a weight of food waste introduced and a reduction in the weight of the food waste and an amount of electric power consumed, a GL server collecting data on the reduction in the weight of the food waste and data on the amount of the consumed electric power and accumulating the collected data, and computing a total of reductions in the weight of the food waste and a total of amounts of the consumed electric power on the basis of the accumulated data on the reduction in the weight of the food waste and the accumulated data on the amount of the consumed electric power, and a public office server receiving the total of reductions and the total of amounts from the GL server.

Various waste fractions from meat, gravy, and animal feed industries, that are difficult to recycle, as well as wastes, for example, from fishing and fish processing, are often challenging to separate for further processing into products. The hygienic and otherwise safe and economical utilization of these, consistent with ecologically sustainable development, requires the development of new methods. According to the method and apparatus of this invention, with the help of microbes and their enzymes, for example, bone and tissue waste, as well as protein, fat material or materials containing blood matte, that have been separated during meat processing, can be fractioned into new raw materials. Gained products can be, for example, energy fractions and gases, waxes and various organic fertilizers and soil improvement substances.

The present invention makes public a method and an apparatus for the revalorization of various organic waste, by means of physics and mechanics. The bubbles are produced and injected into the mixture in the sealed tank under depressure, then establish the movement of toric rotation in the vertical direction. The high-speed movement bubble carrying focused energy vigorously collide into the mixture, thus showing the Rheo-fluidizing effect (Shear thinning), decreasing the viscosity and depolymerizing long-chain molecules. This achieves active bacteria killing, separation, concentration and de-emulsification; the solution's advantage is applied to various organic residue, with short and efficient processing cycles, without producing unpleasant odors and is non-polluting, chemical free, at low temperature, low energy consumption, no GHG emission, preserving the microorganisms and nutrients of organic matter, and separating the pollutants such as the oils and fats. The usage of the output is unlimited, the invention is helpful to restore the ecosystem.

The purpose of the Detritivore Lavatory [D-Lav] Sanitation Machine/Mechanism invention is to bio-convert human wastes and food scraps into viable commodities through the efficient use of detritovores. While providing protections against Covid-19 and other disease transmissions and ecological pollution, as well as mitigating greenhouse gases. The D-Lav invention facilitates the safe, sustaining and efficient use of detritovores in a controlled aerated environment in order to facilitate the bio-conversion of multiple forms of biodegradable substances.

The D-Lav invention solves a variety of problems experienced in the field of compost toilets generally and enhances the detritovore based Biofil Microflush Toilet system approach specifically. The use of the D-Lav invention will also permit multiple types of production alternatives. Such as nutrient dense soils, fertilizers, bio-fuels and animal feeds that can be derived from this invention.

In a system and process, organic waste is treated in a reactor to volatilize contaminants such as Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) compounds and/or Contaminants of Emerging Concern (CECs) from the organic waste. Biochar may have reduced or undetectable PFAS compounds or CECs. Most or all of the gas may be thermally oxidized to convert PFAS compounds and/or CECs into less harmful and/or less toxic products or elemental compounds, which may be further removed. Energy may be recovered from one or more parts of the herein described system and process.
