Apparatus for grinding waste material, such as kitchen waste, includes a section for loading the waste material, a section for grinding the waste material, a collector for the ground waste, and a dispenser of controlled quantities of sanitizing or cleaning powder directly onto the waste material before or after grinding, or onto internal surfaces of the apparatus, to avoid formation of hazardous substances or unpleasant odors. The powder can be dispensed directly or by a flow of air, which could be generated for example by a rotor or piston mechanism. The flow of air could fluidize the powder for dispensing. The apparatus can be sized for location under a sink.
