The present invention relates to a food waste disposal apparatus using a natural force, wherein the food waste disposal apparatus is to hygienically dispose wet food waste with a small volume by drying and reducing the wet food waste using solar heat. According to the present invention, the food waste disposal apparatus having three coupling bodies vertically arranged on top of each other exposes the wet food waste after collecting the wet food waste in order to dry and reduce the wet food waste in process of time, thereby hygienically disposing the dried and reduced food waste. The lowest one of the coupling bodies is a drain tray in which water flowing from the wet food waste is collected. Another one of the coupling bodies is an inner tray vertically inside the drain tray and having the food waste from which the water flows to the drain tray. The other one of the coupling bodies is a cover vertically installed on the inner tray and closing the inner tray, thereby preventing the approaches of bugs and the leakage of smells to the outside. The cover has multiple magnifying glasses coupled to the upper surface thereof. After the water flows from the wet food waste by the solar heat passing through the magnifying glasses and doubled to heat the wet food waste in the inner tray, the solar heat evaporates remaining water in the wet food waste in order to dry the wet food waste, thereby disposing the dried and reduced food waste. According to the present invention, the food waste can be hygienically and conveniently disposed not by artificial energy, but by solar heat energy. COPYRIGHT KIPO 2014
