TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates, in general, to the field of waste management. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a system for facilitating biodegradable waste treatment.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Anaerobic digestion refers to a sequential process by which microorganisms break down biodegradable materials in the absence of oxygen. The process of anaerobic digestion is used for purpose of organic waste management and treatment at industrial sites as well as for domestic purposes. Moreover, much of the fermentation used industrially to produce food and drink products, as well as home fermentation, also uses anaerobic digestion.
[0004] Conventional processes for anaerobic digestion are generally time-consuming because of the low reaction level and are mostly carried out batch-wise or in continuous form. However, in both the cases due to overflow of the slurry on daily basis, it tends to loosening of the culture which is also known as washing of the culture.
[0005] Moreover, the conventional processes for anaerobic digestion are not efficient enough to deal with huge amounts of waste in a short time and are not equipped with simple equipment, both as regards machinery and surveillance, therefore they are nor rational and neither economically feasible. Also, they lack rapid, continuous, and effective anaerobic treatment process for the management and degradation of large amounts of waste from, primarily, the industrial and domestic sites.
[0006] The conventional processes do not result in complete destruction of the organic matter, and due to lack of complete destruction of the organic matter within the digester, pathogenic and parasitic organisms as well as weed seeds are not killed and they could keep on breeding there, which may in turn result in formation of poisonous gases. Moreover, mixing conditions in the conventional processes are generally non-intensive, as well as heat maintenance may not be proper inside the digester, hence resulting in creation of untreated zones or dead pockets.
[0007] Such conventional processes do not result in uniform consistency of the slurry digester that may result in blockages during the anaerobic process. Moreover, such processes do not ensure timely addition of the enzymes, thereby resulting in improper and non-uniform digestion of the organic wastes, hence reducing their efficiency. Also, they do not facilitating any monitoring or regulation of parameters, such as, temperature, pH value, humidity, and other such conditions inside the digester, hence it becomes very tough to provide ambient conditions for the treatment of organic wastes.
[0008] There is, therefore, a requirement in the art for to provide a smart, economically feasible, and efficient system to mitigate above-mentioned problems, and for uniform treatment of biodegradable/ organic wastes.

[0057] FIG. 2 illustrates exemplary functional units of the control unit 124 of the proposed system 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0058] Referring to FIG. 2, the exemplary functional units of the control unit 124 can include one or more processor(s) 202. The one or more processor(s) 202 can be implemented as one or more microprocessors, microcomputers, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, central processing units, logic circuitries, and/or any devices that manipulate data based on operational instructions. Among other capabilities, the one or more processor(s) 202 are configured to fetch and execute computer-readable instructions stored in a memory 204 of the control unit 124. The memory 204 can store one or more computer-readable instructions or routines, which may be fetched and executed to create or share the data units over a network service. The memory 204 can include any non-transitory storage device including, for example, volatile memory such as RAM, or non-volatile memory such as EPROM, flash memory, and the like.
[0059] In an embodiment, the control unit 124 can also include an interface(s) 206. The interface(s) 206 may include a variety of interfaces, for example, interfaces for data input and output devices, referred to as I/O devices, storage devices, and the like. The interface(s) 206 may facilitate communication of the control unit 124 with various devices coupled to the control unit 124. The interface(s) 206 may also provide a communication pathway for one or more components of the control unit 124. Examples of such components include, but are not limited to, processing engine(s) 208 and database 210.
[0060] In an embodiment, the processing engine(s) 208 can be implemented as a combination of hardware and programming (for example, programmable instructions) to implement one or more functionalities of the processing engine(s) 208. In examples described herein, such combinations of hardware and programming may be implemented in several different ways. For example, the programming for the processing engine(s) 208 may be processor executable instructions stored on a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and the hardware for the processing engine(s) 208 may include a processing resource (for example, one or more processors), to execute such instructions. In the present examples, the machine-readable storage medium may store instructions that, when executed by the processing resource, implement the processing engine(s) 208. In such examples, the control unit 124 can include the machine-readable storage medium storing the instructions and the processing resource to execute the instructions, or the machine-readable storage medium may be separate but accessible to the control unit 124 and the processing resource. In other examples, the processing engine(s) 208 may be implemented by electronic circuitry. The database 210 can include data that is either stored or generated as a result of functionalities implemented by any of the components of the processing engine(s) 208.
[0061] In an embodiment, the processing engine(s) 208 can include a monitoring unit 212, an actuating unit 214, and other unit(s) 218. The other unit(s) 218 can implement functionalities that supplement applications or functions performed by the control unit 124 or the processing engine(s) 208.
[0062] According to an embodiment, the monitoring unit 212 can monitor health status of the digester 102 by monitoring one or more parameters, such as, but not limited to, temperature, duration of stay of the bio-degradable waste products in the digester, amount of feeding, gas bubble size, amount of CO2, total and partial pressure of the gas phase, pH level, dry matter content, and available carbon and nitrogen within the digester 102.
[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the monitoring unit 212 can monitor that the temperature within the digester 102 should be between a range of 35 to 40° C for providing optimum conditions for the treatment. In one embodiment, if the monitored temperature is not found to be between the range, then the monitoring unit 212 can generate first actuating signals to actuate the alert unit 114, which in turn can generate and transmit corresponding set of alert signals to activate the buzzer or LED(s).
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the monitoring unit 212 can monitor that the pH value of the slurry in the digester 102 should be below 7. In one embodiment, if the monitored pH value of the slurry is found to be above 7, then the monitoring unit 212 can generate the first actuating signals to actuate the alert unit 114, which in turn can generate and transmit corresponding set of alert signals to activate the buzzer or LED(s). In one embodiment, if the monitored pH value of the slurry is found to be above 7, then the monitoring unit 212 can generate second actuating signals to enable spraying of an acidic medium, which can be stored within a tank operatively coupled to the control unit 124, over the slurry, thereby regulating its pH value and maintaining optimum conditions for the treatment of the biodegradable waste products.
[0065] In an embodiment, the system 100 enables an anaerobic digestion by embracing a continuous process with a high level of reaction with addition of the enzymes through the dosing unit 104. A further characteristic feature of the proposed system 100 is that, as opposed to the simple small-scale degradation of biodegradable waste, it can relate instead primarily to the management and degradation of biodegradable waste and sludge from municipal treatment plants, different industries (primarily the forestry industry including pulp, board etc.), the food-stuffs and fermentation industries, etc. Above all, the great amounts of waste which are involved in the above industries entail that completely different, and much stricter, requirements are placed on the planning of the degradation process than in the simpler type of treatment which is involved in the degradation of domestic waste.
[0066] In order that the process be rational and economically viable, it must be possible to deal with great amounts of waste in a short time and with simple equipment, both as regards machinery and surveillance, the latter requiring a continuous process. However, the art has previously lacked such a rapid, continuous, effective, anaerobic treatment process for the management and degradation of large amounts of waste from, primarily, the above-mentioned sources. The proposed system 100 obviates this shortcoming, for example, it can be possible using the system 100 to reduce size of the anaerobic digesters, reducing the volumes of the reactors, reducing the dead pockets within the digesters, increasing the digestion efficiency, no scum formation at all, complete destruction of the volatile solids within the digester, reducing odours if any from the organic manure because the waste is completely degraded.
[0067] A further advantage of the proposed system 100 as compared to normal anaerobic digestion process is that due to complete destruction of the organic matter within the digesters the pathogenic and parasitic organisms as well as weed seeds are rapidly killed off. Moreover, because of the fact that the mixing conditions in the process are intensive, the antibiotic effect will be rapid and powerful as well as the present heat maintenance in the digester, the temperature conditions thus becoming homogeneous and stable, in other words there will be no untreated zones or dead pockets.
[0068] Finally, in the process associated with the system 100, the consistency of the slurry is uniform within the reactor and entire slurry inside the digester is uniform and free flowing without any blockages from bottom to the top part of the liquid level. The dosing unit 104 (enzyme doser) may ensure timely addition of the enzymes at certain set intervals, and there is no settlement of sludge or solid particles within the digester at the bottom of the reactor.
[0069] In order to achieve the necessary level of reaction and rapidity in the process involved in working of the proposed system 100 certain critical conditions as regards the particle size, dry matter content and pH must be maintained and in any case if not maintained due to overlooking of the workers at site then the addition intervals can be changed and increased and the system 100 after increasing the time intervals is also capable to take care of such issues. The enzyme doser in this case can act as a bio chemical pre-treatment of the feedstock after adding the enzyme to the digester 102. Moreover, the process can be accelerated further by altering the time interval of the enzyme doser where certain enzymes are added which assist in the complete degradation process.
[0070] In an embodiment, total or almost total optimization of the degradation process which takes place within the digester can be enhanced by the system 100. The reaction in the digester 102 increases within the anaerobic digestion along with mesophilic processes, that the waste added is ensured to degrade faster with the addition of the enzymes and essentially the enzymes helps the microbes to increase the reaction speed and reaction yield can be controlled in a desired manner by the control and regulation of applicable parameters within the digester, such as temperature, agitation speed and intensity, duration of stay, amount of feeding, gas bubble size, CO2 addition, total and partial pressure of the gas phase, pH level, dry matter content, available carbon and nitrogen etc.
[0071] Thus, in the light of the above, the proposed system 100 provides a process for anaerobic mesophilic degradation in the digester, where microbial degradable substances are added, in which the particle size of the microbially degradable substance is reduced so as to be, prior to degradation, at most 50 mm and the substance is mixed with a liquid to a dry content of at most 15% by weight for producing a slurry whose pH is regulated and in the range of 4-7, the slurry being preferably exposed to degradation promoting enzymes by addition with the dosing unit 104. The temperature within the digester 102 is maintained which also ensures that the enzymes which are added by the dosing unit 104 are working on the degradation treatment.
[0072] It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that many more modifications besides those already described are possible without departing from the inventive concepts herein. The inventive patent matter, therefore, is not to be restricted except in the spirit of the appended claims.
