Here, in FIG. 2B, a method of providing a separate pressure pump for fucoidan water is illustrated. However, as another embodiment, a method of separately providing a nanobubble generator dedicated to fucoidan water (all of the nozzles are for fucoidan water) is also available. Is possible. The nozzle diameter for fucoidan water is preferably 0.5 to 1 mm. The pressure is preferably 1 MPa or less. 0.6 MPa or more is preferable.

  The main pipe 310 is a relatively thick and thick round pipe. The main tube 310 is provided with a recess in the central portion in the longitudinal direction over the entire circumference, and forms a space 312 between an outer cylinder 362 described later that covers the outer periphery of the main tube 310. Three nozzles 350 and 352 are screwed from the space 312 toward the axial center in a set at six positions along the axial direction of the main pipe 310, and in each set at rotational positions separated by 120 degrees. Yes. Of these, one set on the introduction pipe 340 side, and the three nozzles 352 are screwed obliquely along the direction of water movement with respect to the axis of the main pipe 310. The nozzles 350 and 352 are formed of elongated tubes. As Example 3, as shown in FIG. 1B and FIG. 2B, at least one of the nozzles 350 has a larger diameter like the nozzle 126c of FIG. You may make it supply the water for injection. The set pressure of this pump is preferably lower.

  The rod assembly 320 is a round bar-like member that is accommodated in the main pipe 310 so as to penetrate along the axial center line. The rod assembly 320 has a length longer than that of the main tube 310 and is inserted so that both ends thereof protrude from both end surfaces of the main tube 310. The rod assembly 320 has an outer diameter that is thinner than the inner diameter of the main tube 310, and is disposed in the center of the main tube 310 along the axis by a set screw 348. Therefore, between the main pipe 310 and the rod ASSY 320, the upper and lower sides and the right and left around the rod ASSY 320 in FIG. 3 are in the range of 20 times or less of the ejection hole 332 (the nozzle diameter of the nozzle injected from the rod ASSY 320). A circulation space 314 through which water of about 6 mm flows is formed. The rod ASSY 320 includes an elongated hollow rod 322 and a solid rod 334 having the same diameter and the same dimensions. The hollow rod 322 and the solid rod 334 are coupled to each other by a female screw portion 324 at the tip of the hollow rod 322 and a male screw portion 336 at the tip of the solid rod 334. In this coupled state, the hollow rod 322 is disposed on the upstream side of the water flow inside the main pipe 310 (right side in FIG. 3), and the solid rod 334 is located on the downstream side of the water flow inside the main pipe 310 (FIG. 3). On the left side). The hollow rod 322 is a bottomed cylindrical round bar having a hollow portion 326 along the axis, and the bottomed side is used with the upstream side (the right side in FIG. 3). The open end side is provided with the female screw portion 324 and is coupled to the solid rod 334. The hollow rod 322 has a hole on the bottomed side so as to be substantially perpendicular to the axial direction, and is provided with a female pipe thread. A gas nozzle 328 having a male screw for a pipe at the tip is sealed and screwed into this, and the above-mentioned wet mixed gas is supplied to the hollow portion 326 through the pipe 330. The hollow rod 322 is provided with a plurality of small-diameter ejection holes 332 in a cylindrical portion that does not extend to the female screw portion 324 on the open end side, and the wet mixed gas in the hollow portion 326 is supplied to the water in the circulation space 314. It is configured so that it can be ejected and bubbled. The solid rod 334 is a round bar, and the male screw portion 336 side is directed to the upstream side (the right side in FIG. 3) and is coupled to the hollow rod 322. The male screw portion 336 is provided on a column projecting from the tip of the solid rod 334 and is coupled to the female screw portion 324.

  The gas nozzle 328 is connected to the hydrogen generating means 16 via a pipe 330 and is configured to send a mixed gas to the hollow portion 326 of the hollow rod 322.

  The introduction pipe 340 has the same inner diameter as that of the main pipe 310, but has a shorter outer diameter than that of the main pipe 310, and is provided with male pipe threads on the outer circumferences at both ends. One end of the introduction pipe 340 is connected to the main pipe 310 by screwing the male pipe thread into a hole provided in the side wall 364 described later. In addition, a through hole through which the gas nozzle 328 passes perpendicularly from the outer peripheral surface of the introduction pipe 340 toward the central axis line is provided in the central portion of the introduction pipe 340 in the longitudinal direction. The through hole 344 is provided with a female pipe screw, and is configured such that the gas nozzle 328 passes through the introduction pipe 340 and is connected to the hollow rod 322. The introduction pipe 340 is provided with a small-diameter stop hole (not shown) on the outer peripheral surface upstream of the through hole 344 so as to be substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the introduction pipe 340. (Not shown) is provided with a female pipe thread. By inserting a set screw 348 that fits into the female screw for pipe and tightening the screw while sealing, the hollow rod 322 is brought into contact from both sides to support the rod ASSY 320.

  The discharge pipe 342 has substantially the same shape as the introduction pipe 340 and has the same structure. In other words, the pipes have the same inner diameter as the main pipe 310 and the introduction pipe 340, but are shorter than the main pipe 310 and have a shorter outer diameter. One end of the discharge pipe 342 is connected to the main pipe 310 by screwing the male screw for pipe while sealing it in a hole provided in the side wall 364 described later. The other end is connected via a discharge connecting pipe (not shown) to a particle size distribution part (not shown) that stores downstream water. The discharge pipe 342 is provided with a small-diameter stop hole (not shown) so as to be substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the discharge pipe 342 from the outer peripheral surface, and a pipe female is provided in the stop hole (not shown). Screws are provided. By inserting a set screw 348 to be fitted into the female screw for pipe and tightening the screw while sealing, the solid rod 334 is abutted from both sides to support the rod ASSY 320.

  The container assembly 360 mainly includes a pipe-shaped outer cylinder 362 that covers the outer periphery of the main pipe 310 in close contact with each other, and side walls 364 that close both ends of the outer cylinder 362 that houses the main pipe 310. The outer cylinder 362 has substantially the same length as the main pipe 310 and has an inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the main pipe 310. In order to seal and connect the outer tube 362 when the main tube 310 is housed, grooves are provided at both ends of the outer periphery of the main tube 310 so as to sandwich the space 312, and O-rings are provided there. 368 is interposed. In addition, a hole is formed in the outer peripheral portion of the outer cylinder in the diametrical direction, and a pipe 376 that supplies water to a space 312 formed between the outer tube and the main pipe 310 is sealed and connected. The water sent from the pipe 376 to the space 312 is configured not to leak out to the outside by the interposed O-ring 368 or the like. Next, the water supplied from the pipe 376 is divided in a sealed space 312 and flows to the nozzles 350 and 352. Therefore, since the pipe 376 is connected to the nozzles 350 and 352 without separately piping, the pipe 376 can be connected to the plurality of nozzles 350 and 352 with a simple structure.

  Further, the outer cylinder 362 is provided with screw holes on both end faces. The outer cylinder 362 containing the main pipe 310 is closed at both end surfaces by side walls 364 and screwed into the screw holes with bolts 366. The side wall 364 is a disk member that covers the entire side surface of the outer cylinder 362. A hole having the same diameter as that of the introduction pipe 340 or the discharge pipe 342 is formed in the central portion of the circle of the side wall 364. The hole is provided with a female pipe screw so that the introduction pipe 340 or the discharge pipe 342 can be screwed in. Further, the side wall 364 has a through hole having a counterbore around the outer peripheral portion, and is coupled to the outer cylinder 362 with a bolt 366 passing through the through hole. Further, a groove is provided outward from the hole of the main pipe 310 so that the side wall 364 hermetically covers the side surface of the outer cylinder 362, and an O-ring 370 is inserted there. Therefore, the water flowing through the circulation space 314 of the main pipe 310 is configured not to leak out.

  Next, a method for generating nanobubbles by the nanobubble generator 302 will be described. For example, water pressurized to 7 Mp is fed into the space 312 from the pipe 376, and water is jetted from the opening at the tip of the nozzles 350, 352 protruding from the opening on the space 312 side of the nozzles 350, 352 into the flow space 314. Most of the injected water collides with the outer surface of the solid rod 334 or the hollow rod 322. At this time, a mixed gas (or pure gas; the same applies hereinafter) having a pressure of 0.5 MPa or less may be supplied from the gas nozzle 328 to the hollow portion 326 of the hollow rod 322, for example. The injected mixed gas is injected into the water flowing through the circulation space 314 from the ejection hole 332. Since the nozzle 352 injects water diagonally, the flow of water occurs in the circulation space 314 from the right to the left in the figure. Thereby, the water containing nanobubbles is sent out from the right to the left. Here, the thickness of the circulation space 314 (the difference between the inner diameter of the main tube 310 and the outer diameter of the solid rod 334 (radius difference)) can be adjusted as appropriate in order to make the generation of nanobubbles more efficient.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view and a front view of a nanobubble generator 70 having a structure different from that of FIG. 2A or FIG. The nanobubble generator 70 includes a light-transmitting columnar block 71 that forms a flow path 74 through which water that is a raw fluid to be processed passes, and a nozzle 76 that includes an opening 78 opened in the flow path 74. A collision member 79 provided at the tip thereof with a convex portion 80 with which the jet flow 78a ejected from the opening 78 collides is formed at a position facing the nozzle 76. The channel 74 is formed by an annular portion 73 having a dome-shaped cross section provided in the block 71. A back-up member 72 that fixes the nozzle 76 and closes the annular portion 73 is provided on the back surface of the block 71. The nozzle 76 is sealed with respect to the block 71 and the backup member 72 by O-rings 83 and 84. A supply pipe 77 is provided behind the nozzle 76 to supply a liquid 77a such as water to be ejected. At least one of these nozzles 76 may have a larger diameter as in the nozzle 126c of FIG. 2B, and water for injection may be supplied from a pump that is another pressurizing means.

  The collision member 79 includes a convex portion 80 at the front end and a head portion 81 for rotation at the rear end. The collision member 79 includes a male screw that is screwed to a moving mechanism 82 that includes a female screw such as a nut fixed to the block 71, and the head member 81 rotates to and from the opening 78 of the nozzle 76. The distance can be adjusted. The tip of the cone-shaped (or cone-shaped) convex portion 80 may be pointed (80a), flat (80b), or provided with a recess, as shown in FIGS. 7 (a) to (c). Good (80c). In order to cause high-speed shearing in the jet flow 78a, the pointed direction (80a) is preferable. The flat (80b) jet flow is widened, and the concave portion (80c) is considered to cause a partial backflow of the jet flow. Moreover, when it deviates from the center, these effects tend to be asymmetric. Moreover, it is preferable that the cone angle (Cone angle) α of the convex portion 80 is within a predetermined range. For example, in the case of a right cone, as shown in the figure, the cone angle α is preferably 60 degrees or more. Further, the cone angle α is preferably 90 degrees or less. In particular, when a concave portion is provided, there are shapes as shown in FIGS. When the distance between the opening 78 and the convex portion 80 is reduced, the impact is increased. Conversely, when the distance is increased, the impact is decreased. Therefore, if bubbles (white turbidity) are simply coming out of the nozzle, it is not at the nano level. Conversely, if bubbles are not visible (transparent), it can be visually confirmed that the level is at the nano level. The distance is preferably adjusted by the result of measuring the physical properties of the liquid after the treatment (for example, ORP).

  Connected to the flow path 74 are a supply pipe 86 for supplying water 86a as a raw fluid and a discharge pipe 85 for taking out treated water as a raw fluid to the outside 85a. Although the flow path 74 is represented by a broken line in the front view, the raw fluid flows in and is discharged from the supply pipe 86 and the discharge pipe 85 without going around. Compared to the nanobubble generating unit 302 in FIG. 3, it is possible to reduce the size by making the flow path annular. Moreover, since it is comprised with the translucent material (for example, polycarbonate), it can adjust, visually recognizing the distance between the opening 78 and the convex part 80. FIG. Since the jet flow 78a is accelerated by the pressure difference, it is easier to utilize this pressure difference if it collides with the convex portion 80. Therefore, different distances and distance ranges may be preferable to the case as in FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B, or FIG.

  FIG. 6 shows a front view of the nanobubble generator 70 with the channel structure slightly changed. The flow path forms a ring on the inner peripheral side, and at least a part of the treated water can circulate around the circuit. Thereby, a process can be performed continuously and even if it is a small apparatus, the nanobubble water containing a high concentration nanobubble can be manufactured. 4 and 6 show an example in which the number of nozzles 76 is four, one or six nozzles 76 may be used. As long as it can be arranged, the number is not limited.

  FIG. 5A is a cross-sectional view schematically showing an ionization processing apparatus 430 that is an example of the ionization means 18. FIG. 5A shows a state in which the ceramic 432 used in the apparatus has a ball shape and is held in the cage 434. A high-pressure fluid (for example, water) is introduced into the ionization processing device 430 from the left opening 436a in the drawing and flows into the expansion space 438a that expands in a fan shape, so that the flow velocity decreases and the time for contacting the surface of the ceramic ball 432 is reduced. Increase. Further, in the vicinity of the opening 436 b through which the fluid exits, the reverse fan-shaped reduced space 438 b becomes narrow, so that the time of contact with the surface of the ceramic ball 432 is shortened. This ceramic ball 432 has a mixture of barium carbonate, titanium oxide and aluminum oxide as described in JP-A-8-217421, etc., in the range of about 1000 ° C. to about 1500 ° C. using clay as a binder. It is a ceramic molded body fired at.

  FIG. 5B schematically shows the ionization processing apparatus 440 according to another embodiment in the same manner in cross section. The internal space structure for accommodating the ceramic ring 442 is substantially the same as that described above in the opening 446a, the enlarged space 448a, the reduced space 448b, and the opening 446b, and thus the description thereof is omitted here. The ceramics ring 442 housed in the internal housing space of the ionization processing device 440 is fixed so as not to be shifted left and right in the drawing with respect to the shaft 450 passing through the central opening. Since the shaft 450 is fixed to the inner surface of the ionization processing device 440, the ceramic ring 442 does not shift in the flow direction even when a high-pressure fluid flows.

  The ceramic balls and ceramic rings used in the ionization processing apparatuses 430 and 440 described above may be formed of a ceramic molded body in which aluminum oxide and barium titanate are dispersed. An example of such a ceramic molded body is one in which a mixture of barium carbonate, titanium oxide and aluminum oxide is fired at a temperature in the range of about 1000 ° C. to about 1500 ° C. using clay as a binder.

1A, 2A, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the nozzle of the injection means for injecting a liquid such as water has the following characteristics.
Hole diameter 0.1 mm to 1 mm, more preferably 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm
Hole length 10 times or more of diameter, more preferably 10 to 15 times Material High wear resistance and corrosion resistance (eg, stainless steel).
Is provided.

The nozzle of the injection means for injecting a liquid such as water used in FIGS. 1B and 2B has the following characteristics.
Non-circulating nozzle hole diameter 0.1 mm to 1 mm, more preferably 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm
Hole length 10 times or more of diameter, more preferably 10 to 15 times Material High wear resistance and corrosion resistance (eg, stainless steel).
Circulating nozzle hole diameter 0.5mm to 1mm
Hole length 10 times or more of diameter, more preferably 10 to 15 times Material High wear resistance and corrosion resistance (eg, stainless steel).

  The high pressure pumps 12 and 110, which are the high pressure means shown in FIGS. 1A and 2A, supply the pressurized fluid such as water or oil into the nozzles 76, 126a, It injects from the opening of 126b, 126c, 350, 352 (refer FIG. 2A, FIG. 3, FIG. 4). The pressure of the fluid such as water to be injected is desirably 1 MPa or more, and more desirably 5 MPa or more. More desirably, it is 10 MPa or more. On the other hand, if the pressure is too high, a special device must be assembled, which is not preferable. Furthermore, as will be described later, it is considered that smaller nanobubbles are generated at a large pressure. However, too small nanobubbles may enter the fluid due to dissolution or dispersion, and it may not always be easy to obtain a favorable result. There is. Therefore, 100 MPa or less is desirable. Considering the actual design of the apparatus, a pressure of 40 MPa or less is more desirable because it is not necessary to make the piping on the way special. Such a pump is generally commercially available, but can be easily manufactured by using a 5.5 kW motor at a maximum pressure of 40 MPa at a flow rate of 7 L / min.

  The high-pressure pumps 12 ′ and 110 ′, which are high-pressure means shown in FIG. 1B and FIG. 2B, are fluids such as water and oil that have been pressurized (in the above-described relatively A large foreign substance may be ejected from the opening of the nozzle 126c (see FIG. 2B). The pressure of the fluid such as water to be injected is preferably 0.4 MPa or more, and more preferably 0.6 MPa or more. Moreover, 1.2 MPa or less is preferable, More preferably, it is 1 MPa or less.

  With the above apparatus, hydrogen water rich in hydrogen can be produced. For example, in Example 1 to be described later, nanobubble hydrogen water was prepared by an apparatus as shown in FIGS. 1A, 2A, and 3. Specifically, tap water was used as raw water, and the water was compressed to 5.0 MPa with a high-pressure pump and injected into the source stream so that the discharge amount was 3 L / min. The distance from the nozzle tip to the colliding wall was 12 mm. Further, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, hydrogen gas supplied from a cylinder compressed to about 15 MPa was injected into the nanobubble generating portion. After the production, the redox potential (ORP) of the treated water was about −500 to −600 mV. The pH range was 6.5-7.5. Moreover, the average particle diameter of nanobubbles was 20-200 nm, and the dissolved hydrogen amount (DH) was about 1.0 mg / L. This is hereinafter referred to as “nano bubble hydrogen water”.

  Next, fucoidan water will be described. In general, fucoidan (English name: fucoidan) is a kind of sulfate polysaccharide. It is abundant in mucilage of brown algae such as kombu, wakame (including mekabu, which is partly), and mozuku, and similar substances have been found in animals such as sea cucumbers. The component of fucoidan is mainly composed of L-fucose and is a compound in which several tens to several hundreds of thousands of α1-2 and α1-4 bonds are connected, and the average molecular weight is about 20,000. U-fucoidan containing glucuronic acid, F-fucoidan consisting only of sulfated fucose, G-fucoidan containing galactose, and the like.

  The fucoidan used in this example was extracted from a mozuku produced in Okinawa Prefecture. As described above, fucoidan pure product extracted, isolated and purified from mozuku can be used (commercially available), mozuku hot water extract and / or processed product thereof can also be used. . The extraction method can also be performed under conditions as disclosed in JP 2004-75595 A, for example. In general, commercially available products can be used. It has the characteristics shown in Table 1 below.

  Fucoidan that can be used in the present invention can be extracted from mozuku from Okinawa and other regions, or from other seaweeds such as kelp and seaweed. The extract is generally available as a concentrate containing fucoidan, which will be described later. The amount of fucoidan in this concentrate (the amount necessary for extraction) can also be defined by the amount of iodine contained therein. Although details will be described later, the amount of fucoidan in the concentrated liquid can be defined by the amount of mozuku in a dry state. Note that iodine can be quantified in the concentrated solution or a diluted solution thereof by, for example, atomic absorption analysis or wet analysis.

[Example 1]
Commercially available fucoidan stock solutions shown in Table 1 are concentrates of trace elements such as iodine. The concentrated solution containing fucoidan was diluted with water about 200 times for drinking. The nanobubble hydrogen water mentioned above was used as the water to be diluted. As an example of the dilution method, adding 200 mL of nanobubble hydrogen water to 1 mL of concentrated liquid in a container is shown as an example. The drinking nanobubble fucoidan water had an iodine concentration of 150 mg / L. That is, the amount of dried mozuku required to obtain 1 L of drinking nanobubble fucoidan water is about 115 g. This is because 1310 micrograms of iodine is contained per gram of mozuku in a dry state. And since it was diluted 200 times, the stock solution of fucoidan in Table 1 was extracted from about 23 Kg of dried mozuku. This mixed solution was mixed using a commercially available stirring device. Examples of the stirring device include a static mixer (for example, a static mixer manufactured by Noritake Co., Ltd.) or an in-line mixer (for example, an in-line mixer manufactured by NP Lab.). The mixed solution thus obtained is called nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water, and its properties are summarized in Table 2. The dilution need not necessarily be 200 times. It can be adjusted according to usage standards.

[Example 2]
In addition, using devices as shown in FIGS. 1A, 2A, 3, 4, and 6, fucoidan water diluted with normal water (raw water may be natural water treated with an RO membrane) is used. It is also possible to produce nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water by supplying the raw fluid to the flow path, bubbling hydrogen gas, and injecting high pressure water (not fucoidan diluted water) separately supplied from each nozzle. In this method, a shearing force can be applied to the fucoidan-diluted water, which can contribute to lowering the fucoidan molecular weight. However, once the nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water once generated is circulated and re-injected from the same nozzle, there is a risk of clogging the nozzle. Therefore, the so-called one-pass method is preferable.

[Example 3]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 2B, using the two types of nozzles having different hole diameters, one is the above-mentioned one-pass method, and the other is once again generated by circulating the nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water once generated. It can be set as the circulation system which injects from. In this case, by reinjecting hydrogen water containing fucoidan, it can contribute to further lowering the molecular weight of fucoidan.

  FIG. 8 illustrates a nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water production system 510 relating to the present invention as an example. In this figure, a block surrounded by a double line represents a part for performing various functions and processes, a double line arrow indicates transmission / reception of a command signal and the like, and a solid line arrow indicates movement of a material. This nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water production system 510 is provided with raw water treatment means for performing a raw water process 512 for preparing water as a raw material, and prepares initial conditions for raw water that satisfies a predetermined standard for use in beverages and the like. . And the adjustment means which performs the adjustment process 514 which performs the deaeration which adds the mineral component etc. to this raw | natural water as needed and / or removes an unnecessary bubble, dissolved oxygen, etc. is provided.

  In parallel with the raw water treatment step as described above, gas production means for performing a gas production step 518 for producing a specific type of gas (gas) to be included in the nanobubbles is provided. In this step, for example, the gas included in the nanobubbles can be electrolyzed with water, or a gas prepared separately (for example, hydrogen) in a cylinder or the like is prepared and described below at a predetermined pressure. It can also be supplied into a means for performing nanobubble treatment.

  The nanobubble treatment means for performing the nanobubble (NB) step 520 for bringing the gas produced and supplied in the gas production step 518 into contact with the raw water that has undergone the preparation step 514 and injecting high-pressure water into the raw water to generate nanobubbles is provided. . This process is the same as the description of the function of the apparatus in FIGS. Further, an injection is performed in which an injection (for example, fucoidan concentrate) prepared in the injection preparation step 522 using the gas produced and supplied in the gas production step 518 is injected into the generated nanobubble water. Means. Next, sterilization means for performing a sterilization treatment step 526 before shipment is provided. And the filling means which performs the filling process 528 filled with predetermined containers, such as an aluminum pouch prepared separately and an aluminum can, is provided. The steps as described above and each means for performing these steps are controlled by a control monitoring unit 530 (including a control monitoring device) and synchronized as necessary.

  FIG. 9 schematically shows a manufacturing system that performs nano-bubble processing a plurality of times in the nano-bubble process 520 of FIG. The main part 600 of the nano bubble soft drink manufacturing system will be described below in the order of the processing steps. Water that has undergone a pre-process 602 for performing pretreatment such as the preparation process 514 from the raw water process 512 in FIG. In order to perform the nanobubble process 520, the valve 606 is opened and water is supplied to the pump 612. The pump 612 supplies high-pressure water to the plurality of nanobubble processing devices 618 and 620 directly or through the respective ionization processing devices 624 and 626 (when the valve 622 is opened). Here, the ionization processing apparatuses 624 and 626 may include ceramics having a ball shape, a ring shape, or the like, and these are in contact with high-pressure water on the surface thereof (see FIGS. 5A and 5B and the description thereof). . By such an ionization apparatus, nanobubbles can be easily stabilized, and nanobubbles can be maintained for a long period of time.

  In parallel with the treatment of water as described above, the gas produced in the gas production process (or gas production process) 630 (which may include a process of supplying from a gas cylinder) (hydrogen, oxygen, inert gas, and (In this embodiment, hydrogen gas in particular is stored in the gas tank 632 and supplied by the regulator at a predetermined pressure.) For nanobubble processing, valves 634 and 635 are opened, and the gas is supplied from the respective nozzles 614 and 616 to the NB process units 610 and 650 which are a plurality of nanobubble processing apparatuses. Here, in FIG. 9, a state in which a plurality of nanobubble processing devices can be arranged in parallel is depicted by (i, j) and (i + 1, j). In other words, this figure shows that by setting +1, +2, +3,..., A desired number of nanobubble processing devices can be arranged in parallel. At this time, a necessary number of necessary pipes are connected to these nanobubble processing apparatuses. For details of the nanobubble processing devices 618 and 620, see FIGS. 1A, 2A, 3, 4, 4, 5A, 5B, and 6 and their descriptions, and pamphlet of International Publication No. 2008/072619. I want to be.

  The nanobubble-treated water is buffered in the (i, j) treated water tank 638 by opening the valve 636 through the flowmeter 628 through each pipe. The treated water tank 638 is provided with an upper lid and filled with an inert gas. A unit 610 surrounded by a solid line is a first nanobubble process unit. Within this unit 610, it is determined how many of the plurality of nanobubble treatment devices 618 and 620 are to be used according to the amount of nanobubble water to be treated, and the raw water and gas are supplied only to them. can do. As described above, a desired number of nanobubble processing apparatuses can be set in parallel, but the above-described various tanks and pumps can be added for each predetermined number of processing apparatuses. In this way, by increasing or decreasing the number of nanobubble treatment devices and the number of various tanks and pumps for raw material supply, it is possible to construct a flexible system that can handle the production of nanobubble water from small to large scale Become.

  As described above, the nanobubble water buffered in the (i, j) treated water tank 638 is not enough to pass through the secondary treatment unit on the right side through a pipe (not shown) when only the primary treatment is sufficient. (Ie, it is the same as the production by one unit, and in this case, the treated water tank may not be provided). On the other hand, in order to increase the number of nanobubbles generated and the amount generated, secondary and subsequent treatments are required, and the valve 640 is opened to supply treated water to the (j + 1) th nanobubble process unit 650. A plurality of nanobubble process units (not shown) may be provided between the first nanobubble process unit 610 and the (j + 1) th nanobubble process unit 650. Since the configuration in the (j + 1) th unit 650 is substantially the same as the configuration in the first nanobubble process unit 610 described above, the same reference numerals are used and description thereof is omitted. Cooperation between the above-described devices and opening / closing of various valves are controlled by the control monitoring device 530 in FIG.

  In FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B, and FIG. 9, such a tank or tank is drawn, but such a tank or tank is not necessarily required in the manufacturing apparatus and system of the present invention. The piping or the like may function as a tank or a tank, and may not have a buffer function (storage function) in the first place.

  A sensory test was performed using this nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water. The subject was diagnosed with bladder cancer and was being treated with an anticancer agent. However, anti-cancer drug treatment was discontinued due to severe side effects and the effect of the drug decreased in the second half of the treatment. Thereafter, the above-mentioned nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water was drunk 6 times a day (300 cc per day), 4 times (200 cc per day), 3 times (150 cc per day). The process is shown in FIG.

  FIG. 10 shows the state of a 39-month period between the age of 51 and 54 and the drinking record of nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water. From the 1st to the 6th month is the period when subjective symptoms began to appear. Various examinations were performed at the hospital in the 7th to 8th months. As shown in * 3, a bladder membrane tumor (cancer) was diagnosed, and the size of the tumor was determined by CT scan, MRI, and endoscope (in the figure). * See the result of 5). At this time, urination was performed with a tube as indicated by * 1 in the figure. Thereafter, the affected area was washed and an anticancer drug was administered at the hospital. As indicated by * 6 in the figure, when the number of white blood cells is above a certain level, the administration of the anticancer drug can be continued. * 7 in the figure indicates the period during which the administration of the anticancer drug was discontinued, but it took 4 weeks to administer the anticancer drug once. The urine collection test was a test to check whether cancer cells were detected. As a result, the tumor appeared to be slightly smaller, but suffered from the side effects of anticancer drugs. Furthermore, radiation therapy was performed, but the symptoms worsened due to side effects. As indicated by * 4, metastasis to the kidney and ureter was observed at the 18th month. At this point, normal treatment was stopped, and the patient was discharged at the end of the month as shown in * 2. Since there was a symptom of a side effect, from the 20th month, nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water was started to be taken 6 times a day (6 cc, 9 pm, 12 pm, 15 pm, 18 pm, 21 pm, total 300 cc). Then, I felt that I was feeling better, at least due to what seems to be mental or nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water. At the same time, examinations were conducted at the hospital through interviews and blood sampling. As shown in * 4, the 22nd month also showed metastasis to the kidneys and ureters as in the 18th month. It seems that was not seen. However, the physical condition that the subject feels has improved, and it seems that there was some effect by the nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water. In particular, as a result of the test conducted at the 25th month, the cancer disappeared, so it is considered that something happened during this period. From the 26th month, the nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water is taken 4 times a day (6, 12, 12 and 21 o'clock, total 200cc), and from the 32nd month, 3 times a day (6, 12) 18:00 and a total of 150 cc). During this time, her physical condition improved until it became almost the same as a normal healthy body.

  As a result, it was not possible to find bladder cancer with an endoscope or the like within a few months after starting drinking nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water. It can also be considered that this nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water had the effect of eliminating cancer (action as an anticancer agent). It is also considered that there was an effect of slowly increasing the effects of the treatment with an anticancer agent and the radiotherapy that had been performed halfway (action as an anticancer agent function promoter and an anticancer adjuvant). In any case, it is clear that such nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water exerted the effect of making patients feel better without adversely affecting anticancer drug treatment or radiation therapy (adverse effects of anticancer drugs and cancer treatment). As an alleviating agent).

The nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water can further contain vitamin C. Vitamin C can improve the taste and make it easier to drink, and also functions as an antioxidant.

  Such potable nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water preferably has a fucoidan concentration of 0.1 mg / L or more, more preferably 1 mg / L or more, and even more preferably 3 mg / L or more in the concentration of iodine contained. Prepare. This is because the higher the concentration, the higher the effect of fucoidan. However, even if it is above a certain level, the effect is hardly changed. Therefore, considering the economic efficiency, the concentration of iodine contained is preferably 300 mg / L or less, more preferably 200 mg / L or less. In addition, the dietary intake standard for iodine (μg / day) has been published, and it is preferable to adjust the concentration so that the amount is adjusted accordingly. For example, since the tolerable upper limit of iodine is 2200 μg at the age of 18 to 29 years old, for example, when taking 50 mL a day, the drinking nanobubble fucoidan hydrogen water has a fucoidan concentration of 44 mg / Prepare to L or less. The concentration of hydrogen added as nanobubbles is preferably 0.01 mg / L or more, more preferably 0.1 mg / L or more, and most preferably 0.5 mg / L or more. However, since hydrogen may not be stably retained in water if it is too much, it is preferably 50 mg / L or less, more preferably 10 mg / L or less, and most preferably 1.2 mg / L or less. Normally, it does not become 1.2 mg / L or more due to the limit dissolved concentration of hydrogen, but it can be retained even more when stabilized with nanobubbles. In consideration of the effect, the average bubble diameter of hydrogen nanobubbles is preferably 1 nm or more, more preferably 10 nm or more, and further preferably 20 nm or more. In consideration of bubble stability, the average bubble diameter is preferably 1000 nm or less, more preferably 500 nm or less, and even more preferably 200 nm or less. As a result, highly effective fucoidan hydrogen water can be produced.
