  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1. First Organic Storage Device The first organic storage device 100 is an example applied to a bag.

  The first organic matter storage device 100 includes a liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and a basket 60.

  The liquid carbon dioxide container 10 contains liquid carbon dioxide, and is composed of a carbon dioxide gas cylinder or the like. The carbon dioxide is introduced into the basket 60 to cool the inside of the basket 60. The inside of the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 is placed under a high pressure (for example, 1 MPa).

  There are the following two methods for cooling the inside of the basket 60. The first cooling method is a method in which carbon dioxide is injected into the basket 60 by a spray device (nozzle or the like) 16. In the second cooling method, a dry ice container (for example, a bag) 20 is provided in the basket 60, and carbon dioxide guided from the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 can be released through the dry ice container 20. .

  The first cooling method will be specifically described. After passing through the filter 12, the liquid carbon dioxide is mixed with the functional water stored in the functional water container 14 a and released into the basket 60 by the spray device 16. The filter 12 is preferably a filtration device that has been subjected to MICA processing, which will be described later. For example, the filtration device disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3989944 can be applied. The organic matter that has come into contact with the carbon dioxide that has passed through the filter 12 that has been subjected to the MICA treatment has an advantage that it is difficult to rot. As functional water, the mineral active liquid mentioned later and the sterilization deodorizing liquid containing chlorine dioxide are applicable. An electromagnetic valve 30 may be provided between the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and the filter 12. An intermittent timer can be attached to the solenoid valve 30 so that the on / off operation is repeated every predetermined time. As the spraying device 16, for example, a micro mist nozzle such as a nozzle using ultrasonic waves can be used, and liquid carbon dioxide can be sprayed by microbubbles.

  The second cooling method will be specifically described. Liquid carbon dioxide is introduced into the inside of the dry ice container 20 in the basket 60 through a pipe, and is released into the basket 60 through the dry ice container 20. When liquid carbon dioxide is released into the dry ice container 20, the pressure is suddenly reduced, so that part of the liquid carbon dioxide (about 60%) is vaporized and the remaining liquid carbon dioxide (about 40%). Degree) becomes solid carbon dioxide (dry ice). Thereby, dry ice can be produced | generated in the dry ice container 20, and the effort which puts dry ice in the accommodation bag using a human hand is eliminated. Since it is only necessary to supply liquid carbon dioxide as much as necessary, the consumption of carbon dioxide can be suppressed, leading to reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. By measuring the humidity and carbon dioxide concentration in the basket with a sensor or the like and managing it under appropriate conditions with a solenoid valve, the atmosphere in the basket can be automatically maintained at a predetermined condition.

  The dry ice container 20 is a breathable bag, for example, and can be made of a cloth such as a nonwoven fabric or a paper such as a filter paper. For example, when applied to a human heel, the dry ice container 20 can be provided at a position corresponding to the head or abdomen. An electromagnetic valve 32 may be provided between the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and the dry ice container 20. An intermittent timer can be attached to the solenoid valve 32 so that the on / off operation is repeated every predetermined time. The dry ice container 20 is preferably subjected to MICA processing described later. Also in the second cooling method, the functional water stored in the functional water container 14b may be merged with liquid carbon dioxide using a merge pipe (such as a T-shaped pipe). A valve such as an electromagnetic valve may be provided between the functional water container 14b and the merging pipe.

  A film 62 that has been subjected to MICA processing is provided in the basket 60. Preservation ability will increase by putting the remains of animals and plants including a human being stored in the basket 60 in this film 62.

  The vaporized carbon dioxide is introduced into the basket by two routes, for example. The first route is to pass through a functional liquid and be introduced into the tub through a nozzle (for example, a micro mist nozzle).

2. Second Organic Material Storage Device The second organic material storage device 200 is an example applied to a device that maintains the freshness of an organic material.

  The second organic matter storage device 200 includes a liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and a refrigerator (refrigerator or freezer) 70.

  The liquid carbon dioxide container 10 contains liquid carbon dioxide, and is composed of a carbon dioxide gas cylinder or the like. The carbon dioxide is introduced into the refrigerator 70 through the spray device 16 to cool the refrigerator 70. Specifically, after passing through the filter 12, the carbon dioxide is mixed with the functional water stored in the functional water container 14 and released to the refrigerator 70 by the spray device 16. The inside of the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 is placed under a high pressure (for example, 1 MPa).

  The filter 12 is preferably a filtration device that has been subjected to MICA processing, which will be described later. For example, the filtration device disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3989944 can be applied. The thing which touched the carbon dioxide which passed the filter by which the MICA process was made has the merit that freshness does not fall easily. As functional water, the mineral active liquid mentioned later and the sterilization deodorizing liquid containing chlorine dioxide are applicable. The functional water can be produced by mixing the pure water produced by the pure water device 40 and the functional water stock solution injected from the mineral active solution stock solution injection unit 42. An electromagnetic valve 30 may be provided between the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and the filter 12. An intermittent timer can be attached to the solenoid valve 30 so that the on / off operation is repeated every predetermined time. As the spraying device 16, for example, a micro mist nozzle such as a nozzle using ultrasonic waves can be used, and liquid carbon dioxide can be sprayed by microbubbles.

  A film 72 that has been subjected to the MICA process can be provided in the refrigerator 70, for example, along the wall surface. By placing an object to be cooled in the film 72, the freshness is further maintained.

  The carbon dioxide in the refrigerator 70 is sucked by a circulation device (compressor or pump) 56 and passed through a MICA-treated filter (ceramic ball packed bed or a filtration device disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3989944) 58. Alternatively, it may be introduced again into the refrigerator 70 through the three-way valve 34. Since the carbon dioxide passes through the filter 58 that has been subjected to the MICA treatment, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the freshness of an object exposed to the carbon dioxide.

  An object to be cooled can be placed in a storage bag (polybag or the like) 74 that has been subjected to MICA processing.

  A sensor (humidity, oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration sensor) 54 can be provided in the refrigerator 70.

  An illuminating device (for example, an LED illuminating device) 50 can be provided in the refrigerator 70 in order to promote the growth of fresh vegetables and fruits. The illuminating device 50 can perform MICA processing described later.

3. Third Organic Material Storage Device The third organic material storage device 300 is an example applied to a transportation vehicle storage device.

  The third organic matter storage device 300 includes a liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and a transport box 80 for a transport vehicle.

  In the transport box 80, a heat insulating sheet 84 and a film 82 subjected to MICA treatment are provided along the inner surface. The heat insulating sheet 84 is arbitrarily set depending on the cooling function to be obtained.

  The liquid carbon dioxide container 10 contains liquid carbon dioxide, and is composed of a carbon dioxide gas cylinder or the like. This carbon dioxide is for cooling the inside of the transport box 80. The inside of the liquid carbon dioxide container is placed under high pressure (for example, 1 MPa).

  There are the following two methods for cooling the inside of the transport box 80. The first cooling method is a method in which carbon dioxide is injected by the spray device 16. The second cooling method is a method in which carbon dioxide is injected into the MICA-treated film 82 that encloses the transported object 80.

  The first cooling method will be specifically described. After passing through the filter 12, the liquid carbon dioxide is mixed with the functional water stored in the functional water container 14 and released into the basket by the spray device 16. The filter is preferably a filtration device that has been subjected to MICA processing, which will be described later. For example, the filtration device disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3989944 can be applied. Organic matter that has come into contact with carbon dioxide that has passed through a filter that has been subjected to MICA treatment has the advantage that it is difficult to rot. As functional water, the mineral active liquid mentioned later and the sterilization deodorizing liquid containing chlorine dioxide are applicable. An electromagnetic valve 30 may be provided between the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and the filter 12. An intermittent timer can be attached to the solenoid valve 30 so that the on / off operation is repeated every predetermined time. As the spraying device 16, for example, a micro mist nozzle such as a nozzle using ultrasonic waves can be used, and liquid carbon dioxide can be sprayed by microbubbles.

  The second cooling method will be specifically described. Liquid carbon dioxide is introduced into the inside of the dry ice container 20 in the refrigerator 80 by a pipe line. An electromagnetic valve 32 may be provided between the liquid carbon dioxide container 10 and the dry ice container 20. An intermittent timer can be attached to the solenoid valve so that the on / off operation is repeated every predetermined time. The dry ice container 20 is, for example, a breathable bag, which can be made of a cloth such as a nonwoven fabric or a paper such as a filter paper, and is preferably subjected to MICA treatment described later.

  When liquid carbon dioxide is released into the dry ice container 20, the pressure is suddenly reduced, so that part of the liquid carbon dioxide (about 60%) is vaporized and the remaining liquid carbon dioxide (about 40%). Degree) becomes solid carbon dioxide (dry ice). Thereby, dry ice can be produced | generated in the dry ice container 20, and the effort which puts dry ice in the accommodation bag using a human hand is eliminated. Since it is only necessary to supply liquid carbon dioxide as much as necessary, the consumption of carbon dioxide can be suppressed, leading to reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. By measuring the humidity and carbon dioxide concentration in the basket with a sensor or the like and managing it under appropriate conditions with a solenoid valve, the atmosphere in the basket can be automatically maintained at a predetermined condition.

  The dry ice container 20 can be formed so as to cover the film 82 that accommodates the transport object 86. The dry ice container 20 can be covered with a heat insulating sheet 84.

  A sensor (humidity, oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration sensor) 54 can be provided in the refrigerator 80.
