Nursery School
Location: Aichi Prefecture
This case study highlights the installation of a commercial food waste processor at a nursery school in Aichi Prefecture, situated in a residential neighborhood and facing a public road.
The school generates approximately 30 kg of food waste daily, primarily from school lunches, and finding a sanitary disposal method was a persistent challenge. The most significant concern was the potential for “foul odor nuisance" affecting nearby residents. For this facility, where utmost consideration for the surrounding community is the top priority, the absolute prerequisite for any new equipment was “the ability to process waste without emitting odors."
■ Background: Strong Concerns Over Odor Complaints in a Residential Setting
When processing and storing approximately 30 kg of daily food waste on-site, the most critical issue requiring careful attention was the “odor."
The nursery school is located in a quiet residential area, with the installation space facing the street. If even a slight stench of rotting food waste were to escape during processing, it would cause significant distress to the neighbors and risk escalating into serious complaints. Consequently, the facility demanded a machine with exceptionally high deodorization performance and hygiene standards that could fulfill their strict requirement to “absolutely emit no foul odors."
■ Deciding Factors: Experiencing the “Odor-Free Assurance" Directly at an Operational Site
It is difficult to completely dispel concerns about odors relying solely on catalog specifications or explanations from sales representatives.
Therefore, we proposed an on-site visit to a neighboring user’s facility where Gomi-Suru was already installed and operating. By standing at an active site themselves, the clients were able to use their own senses to confirm that “unpleasant odors are practically unnoticeable," even when standing right next to the machine.
This “proof of clean processing performance at an actual operational site" was the decisive factor. Fully convinced that it was a safe processor that would not negatively impact the surrounding environment, they promptly decided to install the GH-35 model.
■ Installation & Results: Clean Waste Processing that Harmonizes with the Community

The much-feared unpleasant odors have been successfully contained post-installation, resulting in absolutely zero complaints from neighboring residents. Their primary mission—consideration for the surrounding environment—has been perfectly accomplished. Because the 30 kg of food waste generated daily is rapidly broken down and liquefied into water on the spot, there is no need to stockpile garbage even during the hot summer months, thereby maintaining an exceptionally sanitary and clean environment for the children.
- ✅ Total Prevention of Odor Complaints: Operating odors are imperceptible, ensuring peace of mind even in residential neighborhoods.
- ✅ Maintaining a Sanitary Childcare Environment: Instantly processes 30 kg of daily food waste, shutting out pests and crows attracted by putrefaction.
- ✅ Absolute Assurance via Site Visits: Starting operations with zero anxiety by verifying the actual effectiveness through their own senses prior to installation.
■ AIC Expert Commentary
When introducing food waste processors, the most common anxieties for facility managers revolve around “actual odors" and “usability."
[Professional Insights] “Site Visits" for Fail-Proof Capital Investment
- ✓ The “Seeing is Believing" Approach: Many clients have experienced severe odor troubles with drying-type or composting processors in the past. That is precisely why we actively encourage visits to facilities where our units have been operating long-term, rather than relying on catalog numbers alone. There is no greater reassurance than verifying the results with your own senses.
- ✓ Building a Facility Loved by the Community: For a nursery school to operate long-term in a residential area, maintaining an excellent relationship with neighbors is indispensable. Installing a clean processor that suppresses unpleasant odors is the ultimate form of environmental consideration, serving as a vital CSR activity that enhances the facility’s trustworthiness and brand value.
