BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION First, before describing the embodiments, a fine substance obtained from mesocarp of palm will be described.

FIG. 1 shows a sectional view of palm fruit. The fruit structure of palm is composed of seed coat and pericarp as angiosperms, and the pericarp consists of outer pericarp 1, mesocarp 2, and inner pericarp (nucleus) 3. The endocarp is thickened with horny wood, and some are indistinguishable from the seed coat. The inner skin 3 is commonly called seed. Inner skin 3
It is also a raw material for activated shell carbon. On the other hand, the mesocarp 2 of the pericarp of the palm fruit contains long fibers and is a material for making ropes and scourers. After soaking the palm fruit in water in a pond or the like, a large amount of fine particles including pulp are generated when the fibers are separated. This fine material dried in the sun is excellent in water absorption, water retention and good drainage and air permeability, and is sometimes used as a soil conditioner.

In the study of the present inventors, a fine substance including the pulp of the mesocarp 2 of palm fruit was investigated in the process of examining the deodorizing performance of various organic porous materials which can be reduced at low cost and naturally, It has been found that it has the ability to adsorb odors such as ammonia without any particular modification. Further, it has been found that even if it contains 70% or more of water, it has deodorizing performance and can be used when the humidity of exhaust air is high or when it is mixed with an odor generating source having a high water content. Table 1 shows the odor adsorption performance of this fine material in an ammonia atmosphere,
This is shown in comparison with the odor adsorption performance when wood chips are added as an example of the organic porous material.
As is clear from the above, it is clear that the fine substance itself obtained from the mesocarp of palm has a deodorizing effect.

[0030]

[Table 1] Compared to activated carbon, which is the most widely used deodorant that utilizes physical adsorption, this fine substance is such that activated carbon selectively adsorbs non-polar molecules as it is sometimes called a non-polar adsorbent, and therefore, it can be used as ammonia or aldehyde. Since it is difficult to use for the adsorption of the
The effect cannot be expected unless the activated carbon is impregnated with an acid, whereas the fine substance is effective for deodorizing ammonia even if not impregnated with a chemical or the like. Further, the fine substance can be naturally reduced to the soil after use, and can be reduced to the soil after being used for deodorizing treatment, and is superior in usability to other deodorants. In addition, since the fine substances that are originally generated when using fibers can be used as they are, compared to activated carbon produced by treating at high temperature under the action of oxidizing gas such as steam and air, it takes more labor in the manufacturing process. However, it is of great value both in terms of environmental protection and energy consumption.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

As described above, the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm has a deodorizing effect by itself, and is naturally reduced even if left as it is, and it has a deodorizing effect even when it contains water due to rain or the like. Since it is inexpensive and available in large quantities, the odor generated is suppressed by covering the odor generator with this fine substance.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, for example, the soil 5 or the like, which is mixed with livestock manure or the like and produces an odor, is coated with the fine substance 7 obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit. At this time, it is preferable that the fine material 7 has a water content that is sufficient to maintain air permeability. A large number of microorganisms inhabit soil mixed with livestock manure. These microorganisms decompose organic matter in manure and return it to soil. There are also microorganisms that require oxygen for this decomposition action. Since the fine substance 7 obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit has excellent air permeability, it is possible to supply oxygen to these microorganisms, but the ammonia emitted from the odor source is adsorbed by the fine substance 7. , The amount emitted to the surrounding area is reduced, and it is effective in suppressing odor. Furthermore, since the soil microorganisms can live and proliferate using the fine substance 7 obtained from the mesocarp of the fruit of palm as a carrier, the effect of deodorizing the organism is added. Table 2 shows an example of the flora of the fine substance 7 when the organic substance is added to the fine substance 7 to which the organic substance is added.

[0034]

[Table 2] A variety of microorganisms such as aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria, thermophilic bacteria, and mesophilic bacteria can inhabit the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit. Therefore, an effect of biological deodorization, in which odorous substances are decomposed by microorganisms inhabiting a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit, can be obtained.

In the above-described embodiment, the odor generating source is covered with the fine substance, but the fine substance may be arranged around the odor generating source. For example, in order to reduce the odors derived from pets such as dogs and cats, a petroleum excrement and other ammonia odors caused by pet excrement etc. can be obtained by placing a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit in the pet's range of motion. It can be reduced.

Further, fine substances may be mixed into the odor generating source around the odor generating source. In particular,
This will be described with reference to FIG. The container 9 is used for decomposing kitchen waste on or in soil such as a garden, and is often used in homes having fields and gardens. Although the lid 11 is opened and the garbage is put in, the odor leaks from the container 9 at this time. In addition, even if the lid 11 is closed immediately after the kitchen is thrown in,
The odor may drift around. In particular, for the purpose of sending oxygen required for decomposition into the container 9, the container 9 having the ventilation port 13 cannot avoid odor leakage. Therefore, a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit in kitchen waste, which is the source of odor, 15
By mixing with, for example, volatile components generated from fish can be adsorbed and odors floating around can be reduced.

Experimental data is shown in FIG. As an example of kitchen waste, 200g of fish was mixed with 5 liters of various substances, and the odor became strong. The ammonia concentration in the container after 4 hours after mixing,
When measured, wood dust, which is a porous natural organic substance similar to the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit, has a deodorizing effect and does not make a significant difference when the first fish is added and mixed. However, in the second mixing, ammonia was not detected in those containing fine particles, but only wood chips, or
Ammonia was generated in the case of a mixture of wood chips and activated carbon. In this way, when mixing the odor generating substance and the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit, even if it contains a substance other than the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit, the deodorizing effect However, the higher the proportion of fines obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit, the higher the deodorizing performance can be maintained.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an embodiment in which the deodorizing agent according to the present invention is applied to a ventilation type deodorizing device. In the figure, this aeration type deodorizing device 17 has a packing layer 19 in which fine substances obtained from mesocarp of palm are filled as a deodorant, and a predetermined amount of ammonia introduced from the bottom by a flow meter 23. Exhaust gas 21 containing odorous components such as
The odorous components are removed by passing the gas through the filling layer 19, and the processed gas 25 is discharged from above.
In addition, a dew condensation water drawing pipe 27 and a cock 29 are provided in the lower portion of the ventilation type deodorizing device 17. This is because when the exhaust gas 21 contains a large amount of water, dew condensation water may be generated from the packed bed 19 filled with fine particles. In this case, the cock 29 is opened to remove the dew condensation water. It is for pulling out through the pipe 27.

The filling amount of the fine particles into the filling layer 19 is determined by the amount of odorous components contained in the exhaust gas 21 and the flow rate of the exhaust gas 21.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an embodiment in which the deodorizing agent according to the present invention is applied to a garbage processing apparatus. This garbage processing device has a configuration in which a fine substance 39 obtained from the mesocarp of palm is disposed between a pair of filters 35 and 37 in the middle of the path from the treatment tank 31 to the exhaust port 33. The filter 37 is for preventing the fine particles 39 from scattering and can be arbitrarily removed.

Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described.

When the garbage is thrown into the treatment tank 31 containing the carrier 43 in which microorganisms live from the garbage feeding port 41,
The thrown-in garbage is intermittently stirred in the treatment tank 31 by the stirring device 45, mixed with the carrier 43, and decomposed by the microorganisms living in the carrier 43. Oxygen required for microbial decomposition is generated by the pores 47 formed in the lower part of the treatment tank 31.
Supplied as air from. The carbon dioxide and water generated by the decomposition are released to the outside of the garbage treatment device by the exhaust device 49, and the odorous substances such as ammonia and acetic acid generated from the carrier 43 contained in the exhaust gas pass through the fine substance 39. By doing so, odorous components such as ammonia are adsorbed to and removed from the fine substance 39 obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit,
The odor of exhaust gas will be reduced.

Although the exhaust air from the carrier 43 contains a large amount of water, the fine particles 39 obtained from the mesocarp of the fruit of palm are breathable even if the water content exceeds 70%. Therefore, if the filling amount is properly adjusted, there will be no hindrance to the exhaust.

By the way, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the fine deer obtained from the mesocarp of palm was used as the deodorizing agent, but other deodorizing agents may be mixed and used. Can be improved. That is, the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit is suitable for odorous components such as ammonia, but has a lower adsorption performance for activated carbon such as acetic acid. Therefore, various odorous components can be adsorbed by mixing with activated carbon or the like and using it as a deodorant. As long as the mixed substance can be used, the mixed substance is used as a deodorant,
As described in the above-described embodiment, for example, the ventilation type deodorizing device may be filled, the odor generating source may be covered, or the odor generating source may be installed around the odor generating source.

Fine substances obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruits may be preliminarily impregnated with water to be used as a deodorant.
That is, by allowing water to permeate, the effect of preventing the scattering of fine particles can be obtained when there is a large amount of air flow, and the microorganisms can be propagated using the fine particles as a carrier, so that the effect of biological deodorization can be obtained. is there. Specifically, the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit can be used as a carrier of microorganisms to be grown, with a water content that allows the microorganisms to grow. Here, when a target odor component is ingested and a microorganism that decomposes is grown, the deodorizing effect of the fine substance itself obtained from the mesocarp of the fruit of palm is added to the biological deodorizing effect. By adding water and adding a nutrient source of the microorganism to be grown in advance, the target microorganism can be grown faster. In addition, the growth of various microorganisms makes it possible to decompose various odorous components and deodorize them. When the water is added together with the target microorganism and the nutrient source of the microorganism, it is possible to effectively deodorize. Table 3 shows changes in the number of microorganisms inhabited when water and nutrients were added to the mesocarp of palm fruits. It was found that many microorganisms can inhabit just by adding water, and It can be seen that microorganisms that do not grow only by adding water can be grown by adding them together with the nutrient.

[0046]

[Table 3] On the other hand, in the above embodiments, as a deodorant, it has been described to be used in the form of fine particles, but those obtained by compressing and drying the fine particles obtained from the mesocarp of the fruit of palm, and forming into lumps, The compressed and dried mass may be used in the state of coarsely crushed pieces. Such a lump or a crushed piece in a state where the lump is roughly crushed,
Although it has odor adsorption performance by itself, it becomes finer with use and the odor adsorption performance gradually increases.

The product obtained by compressing and drying the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of the palm fruit can be about 1/6 of the volume of the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of the palm. In addition, the volume of the finely divided product, which is obtained by crushing the compressed and dried product, is about 1/3 to 2/3. Further, the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm is an organic material and may be deteriorated, but the storage stability is improved by compression drying. Therefore, by starting to use in a state of finely obtained fine particles obtained from mesocarp of palm fruit dried and compressed, or in the state of coarsely crushed pieces, facilitating quality control during storage, reducing storage space, It leads to efficient transportation.

When a lump obtained by compression-drying a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of such a palm fruit is actually used as a deodorant, it may be used as it is, but it is generally used after returning it to the fine substance immediately before. it is conceivable that. That is, a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruit is compressed and dried and formed into a lump, or the crushed and dried lump is stored in a state of coarsely crushed and transported to the site of use to remove the deodorant. Immediately before using as, it is returned to a fine state in the environment in which it is used. By taking such storage, transportation, and usage methods, in addition to facilitating quality control, reducing storage space, and improving transportation efficiency, it is possible to obtain the high odor adsorption performance of the fine substance of the mesocarp of palm. Is possible.

There is a method described below as a method for returning the lumps or crushed pieces that have been compressed and dried in the environment of use to a fine state immediately before they are used as a deodorant.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an embodiment in which a lump or a crushed material obtained by compression-drying a fine material is impregnated with water to restore the fine material. That is, the compressed and dried lumps or the crushed pieces 51 obtained by roughly crushing the lumps are put into the container 9, and then the lumps and the crushed pieces 51 are sprinkled with, for example, substantially the same amount of water. Then, if left as it is for a while, water is absorbed by the compressed and dried lumps or the crushed pieces 51 that are roughly crushed lumps, and they are easily collapsed and restored to a fine state by applying a little force. After that, throw in the kitchen waste. Here, in FIG. 7, the same components as those in FIG. 3 are designated by the same reference numerals.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, water is sprinkled after the lumps or crushed pieces 51 are put into the container 9.
The lumps or crushed pieces 51 may be immersed in water in advance and then put into the container 9.

Further, the water for restoration is not limited to a liquid state, and may be water contained in a solid material such as kitchen waste, or may be a solution in which some substance is dissolved in water.

FIGS. 8 (a) and 8 (b) are views showing an embodiment in which a fine substance is returned to the state of the fine substance by applying a load to a crushed mass or a crushed piece. It should be noted that FIG. 8A is a diagram showing a cross-sectional structure of the dust crushing device, and FIG. 8B is a view of the crushing tank of the dust crushing device as seen from above. In the figure, 53 is a dust crushing device, and a crushing tank 55 thereof is provided with a plurality of fixed teeth 57 and a plurality of rotating teeth 61 provided on a rotary shaft 59 of the stirring device which is rotated by a stirring device not shown. The dust 66 fed from the feeding port 63 is agitated and crushed by being sandwiched between the fixed teeth 57 and the rotary teeth 61. Therefore, when the lumps or crushed pieces 65 are put together with the trash 66 in order to absorb the odor generated from the trash, the lumps or crushed pieces 65 are crushed together with the dust 66 and restored to a fine material, and the deodorizing function is exerted. . Needless to say, the lumps or crushed pieces 65 may be charged in advance before the dust 66 is charged.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing another embodiment in which a fine substance is restored to the state of a fine substance by applying a load to a crushed piece or a crushed piece. In the figure, 67 is a ventilation type deodorizing device having a filling layer 69 filled with a deodorant. The filling layer 69 has a stirring device 70 for stirring the filled deodorant, and the stirring device 70 is filled with a lump or a crushed piece 72 obtained by compressing and drying a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm.
By operating, the lumps and the crushed pieces 72 obtained by compressing and drying the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm are rubbed against each other by stirring, and gradually finely divided to restore the state of the fine substance.

Therefore, the ventilation type deodorizing device 67 is
An odor component can be removed from the upper portion as a processing gas 75 by removing an odor component by passing an exhaust gas 73 containing a predetermined amount of odor component such as ammonia introduced by a flow meter 71 through the packed bed 69. Is.
Further, in this ventilation type deodorizing device 67, a dew condensation water drawing pipe 77 and a cock 79 are provided in the lower part. This is because when the exhaust gas 73 contains a large amount of water, dew condensation water may be generated from the packed bed 69 filled with the restored fine particles. In this case, the cock 79 is opened to condense the dew condensation water. It is for withdrawing through the water withdrawing pipe 77.

In the above embodiment, the stirring device 70 is used.
The packed lumps or crushed pieces 72 are restored to fine particles only by using the solid auxiliary material 8 such as ceramic.
By mixing and stirring 1 and forming undulations on the inner wall of the packed bed 69, a quicker and more accurate restoration can be realized.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing yet another embodiment in which a fine substance is restored to the state of a fine substance by applying a load to a crushed piece or a crushed piece. The feature is that the crushing device 87 is provided at the inlet of the deodorant in the filling layer 85 of the ventilation type deodorizing device 83. Therefore, in this aeration type deodorizing device 83, the lumps and debris obtained by compressing and drying the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm fed from the hopper 89 were crushed by the crushing device 87 and restored to the fine substance. It will be filled in the state, and deodorization can be performed immediately. In FIG. 10, 90 is an exhaust gas inflow pipe, 91 and 92 are an exhaust fan and an outflow pipe for outflowing the process gas, and 93 is a gas for preventing an outflow of a gas containing an odorous component from the hopper 89. Is the lid.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the method and mechanism for restoring the lumps and debris obtained by compressing and drying the fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm to the state of the fine substance have been described. Auxiliary means may be provided for the fines obtained from the mesocarp of palm in the compressed and dried mass itself. That is, what was compressed and dried and formed into a lump is a hard block shape, for example, when a mechanism for crushing this lump in a deodorizing device is provided, high crushing performance is required, and therefore,
This is because it is possible to reliably restore the mechanism while preventing the mechanism that is not required for the original deodorization from requiring strength and driving force and increasing cost.

Therefore, a container used as a deodorant or a device having a shape such that a fine substance obtained from the mesocarp of palm can be easily restored into a compressed and dried mass so that the hardness can be easily crushed with a device. It is possible to give it.

FIG. 11 shows a plurality of recesses 97 on the surface of the mass 95.
In the case of using as shown in FIG. 8 described above, the force is concentrated around the concave portion 97 when the rotary tooth 61 and the fixed tooth 57 are sandwiched in the crushing tank 55. However, the lump 95 is easily broken. Therefore, the strength of the rotating teeth 61 and the fixed teeth 57 and the stirring torque can be reduced as compared with the case of using a lump without the recess 97.

FIG. 12 shows a structure in which a plurality of perforations 101 are provided in the lump 99. For example, when the lump 99 is permeated with water to restore the fine state, the water easily permeates, and the fine state is made faster. Can be returned. Although the holes penetrate the lumps here, they may not penetrate the lumps, and not only the holes but also cuts or the like as long as the surface area for permeating water is large.

The molding applied to the lumps may be such that the crushing strength is such that they can be easily crushed, and it is also possible to make it easier to physically crush and miniaturize the lumps. Alternatively, it may be one that aims to facilitate secondary crushing and micronization, and the point is that it can save power and time for crushing and micronization.

In addition, in order to facilitate the crushing of the lumps, a substance other than a fine substance may be mixed during compression drying.
