Abstract
The refuse processing machine of the invention reduces the bulk of the waste by heating and drying the waste in the waste container by heating means. The grinding and stirring means is operated while heating and drying, and the waste is ground and stirred. The waste is ground into small pieces by the grinding and stirring means, and heat of the heating means is hence smoothly transmitted to the inside of the waste, so that the moisture in the waste may be removed efficiently.
