Claims5
A food waste drying apparatus having a main body;
- a food waste receiving tub seated on a support provided in the main body;
- a heater to heat and dry food waste contained in the food waste receiving tub;
- and a suction fan and a suction pipe to discharge heated moist air therethrough to an outside, the food waste drying apparatus comprising:
- a rotating shaft provided on the support and rotates using a driving force transmitted from a drive motor;
- agitation means provided on the food waste receiving tub and removably coupled to the rotating shaft, so that the agitation means agitates the food waste, thus reducing a temperature difference in the food waste, thereby increasing a drying efficiency;
- and
- a deodorizing unit provided in a path of the suction pipe to burn the moist air, which contains odorous particles therein and is discharged through the suction pipe.
