Description

While the present invention is a natural material and has various active ingredients, it is currently used in a limited number of ways, and it makes effective use of bamboo, which is an unnecessary resource by causing a heavy damage to the environment by causing bamboo damage. relates environmentally friendly as many fields effectively usable fermentation powder bamboo powder and deodorants and bath salts.

  Bamboo is a general term for large-sized perennial evergreen herbaceous plants belonging to the family Gramineaceae, and has been used for various purposes since ancient times. Bamboo shoots are the typical seasonal ingredients in spring. Bamboo grown and fully dried has both hardness and flexibility. As represented by bamboo fences and various fittings, building materials, paper raw materials, bows, rulers , Used for craft materials such as firewood and folding fans, craft materials, charcoal and bamboo vinegar. In addition, well-maintained bamboo groves are the essence of style and have a cultural aspect that loves bamboo groves.

  There are several hundred types of bamboo grown in Japan, including true bamboo, Mousou bamboo, and Hachiku. Among them, Moso bamboo has a large number of growth, with a height of 25 m. Some reach the maximum size. As mentioned above, these bamboos were previously useful materials, but now bamboo bamboo is left unattended due to a decrease in demand for bamboo as a material and an increase in cheap bamboo imports from China. It is increasing. In particular, Sousakutake is fast growing and very flexible, so abandoned bamboo forests invade other vegetation, killing the planted bamboo and cedar, and inhibiting growth. If you are not actually in the abandoned bamboo forest, you will not be able to feel the damage. Furthermore, abandoned bamboo forests spread not only to the surrounding vegetation, but also to satoyama and fallow fields, which has become a major problem for environmental conservation.

  Therefore, in order to solve the harmful effects of these abandoned bamboo forests, local governments have started a satoyama regeneration project and are working on the removal of the abandoned bamboo forests. Since there is no means to use the bamboo forest that has just been harvested, the bamboo charcoal, bamboo charcoal powder, flooring material, food additives, fiber, deodorant, fertilizer, or Attempts have been made to use bamboo materials such as Somune bamboo as alternative fuels for oil. For example, as a silage method of raw bamboo powder that uses raw bamboo as the main raw material and opens the way to making raw bamboo into food and further into feed, a process of cutting raw bamboo into a powder with a particle size of about 500 μm The raw bamboo powder is stored in a light-shielding and sealing packaging bag within one week after processing and vacuum-packed under anaerobic or semi-anaerobic conditions, and the vacuum-packed raw bamboo powder is about a month Means for allowing to stand and silage raw bamboo powder are provided (Patent Document 1).

In addition, paying attention to the deodorization and antibacterial ability of bamboo, sanitary napkins and paper diapers are also available, where bamboo powder obtained by pulverizing the bamboo skin with fine deodorant and antibacterial ability into fine powder (Patent Document 2). Furthermore, in order to promote the use of bamboo, as a means for pulverizing bamboo into a powder form, there is a rotary cutting mechanism having a rotary cutting tooth that rotates in a predetermined direction under the rotational drive action of a rotary drive source, and a workpiece. Positioning guide for positioning the cutting part of the bamboo at a position substantially orthogonal to the rotating cutting tooth and guiding the cutting part of the bamboo so as to contact the rotating cutting tooth corresponding to the diameter of the bamboo A bamboo powder manufacturing apparatus including a mechanism is provided (Patent Document 3).

  However, it is difficult to say that the conventional means of using bamboo charcoal, bamboo charcoal powder, etc. can effectively use a huge amount of untreated bamboo forest bamboo, and there is a problem with the amount of heat and combustion efficiency obtained for the use of fuel and the like. Big and far from popular. In addition, the deodorizing action of bamboo is widely known, but it remains in the conventional way of using carbonized or activated bamboo charcoal or activated carbon made from bamboo as a deodorizing agent, and it is difficult to say that it is popular. . Although patent document 1 is fermenting raw bamboo powder, the purpose is silage for manufacturing feed, and in order to include organic acid required for feed, bamboo powder has light-shielding property and sealing property. Means for storing in a packaging bag and leaving it under anaerobic or semi-anaerobic conditions is employed, and effective use other than feed cannot be achieved. Furthermore, since the fermented bamboo powder shown in Patent Document 1 is undried and has a water content exceeding 30% by weight, it does not have sufficient deodorizing power even if it is used as a deodorizing agent.

  Moreover, patent document 2 only adds bamboo powder to water absorption parts, such as a paper diaper, as it is, It cannot be said that it was excellent in the deodorizing and antibacterial ability. Furthermore, although Patent Document 3 discloses a means for pulverizing into a powder form, use of bamboo is not obtained simply by pulverizing into a powder form.

The present invention is to solve the problems utilization means of said bamboo has, to provide environmentally friendly as many fields effectively usable fermentation powder bamboo powder and deodorants and bath salts Objective.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention ferments bamboo powder obtained by cutting raw bamboo into a sawdust shape with aerobic bacteria, and then dries it until the water content becomes 10% by weight or less. The following fermented fine powder bamboo powder pulverized into the following fine powder form is provided .

In addition , bamboo powder obtained by cutting raw bamboo into sawdust is fermented with aerobic bacteria to make fermented bamboo powder. The fermented bamboo powder is dried until the water content becomes 30% by weight , and then bamboo powder lump and rough bamboo scrap And the like, and after drying until the water content is 10% by weight or less , the fermented bamboo powder is pulverized into a fine powder having a particle size of 30 μm or less and the fermented fine powder bamboo powder Then, a predetermined amount of fine powdery bamboo powder fermented with aerobic bacteria is mixed with the bamboo powder cut into sawdust and fermented.

  Furthermore, the deodorizer which consists of the above-mentioned fermented fine powder bamboo powder, and the deodorizer which consists of the liquid filtered after disperse | distributing the above-mentioned fermented fine powder bamboo powder to predetermined amount of water are provided.

  Moreover, the bath agent which consists of the above-mentioned fermented fine powder bamboo powder and the bath agent which consists of the filtered liquid after disperse | distributing the above-mentioned fermented fine powder bamboo powder to predetermined amount of water are provided.

Since the fermented fine powdered bamboo powder according to the present invention is fermented by sprinkling and turning back under a temperature control by an aerobic bacterium, the deodorizing power and other useful components of the bamboo material are improved. Moreover, it consists of finely powdered bamboo powder, especially finely powdered bamboo powder with a fermentation particle size of 30 μm or less , and the surface area per unit weight has been expanded. In addition to the increased effectiveness of the ingredients, it is easy to handle and can be used for many purposes. Furthermore, since the drying, particularly the water content is 10% by weight or less, it is easy to spread and secondary use, and convenience is improved.

This fermented fine powder bamboo powder is obtained by fermenting bamboo powder obtained by cutting raw bamboo into sawdust into fermented bamboo powder and drying the fermented bamboo powder until the water content becomes 30% by weight. It is possible to sort out powders and non-powder materials such as bamboo powder lumps and rough bamboo scraps, and after removing the non-powder materials, the water content is further 10% by weight or less , preferably 5 Since the fermented bamboo powder is pulverized to a fine powder having a particle size of 30 μm or less after being dried until it becomes less than or equal to wt%, a pure fermented fine powdered bamboo powder free from impurities and foreign matters can be obtained.

  By using this fermented fine powder bamboo powder as it is or after dispersing it in a predetermined amount of water and using a filtered liquid as a deodorant or bathing agent, conventional bamboo charcoal or bamboo-based activated carbon, or other A deodorant or bathing agent that is easier to handle and more effective than a deodorant made of bamboo can be obtained.

Following the best embodiment of such a fermentation powder bamboo powder and deodorants and bath agent of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a system diagram schematically showing a first embodiment of a production process of fermented fine powder bamboo powder. First, raw raw bamboo A is prepared in Step 1 as a raw material. The kind of raw raw bamboo A is not particularly limited, and any bamboo material can be used. However, in order to obtain bamboo powder, a thick bamboo is preferable. Therefore, in this embodiment, the thickest bamboo thicket is used, which is the fastest growing and has a large number of growths. This sect bamboo was cut from the bamboo forest and cut to a length of about 4 m to make raw raw bamboo A, which was left on the ground of the bamboo forest harvested in step 2 for about 10 days.

  During this period, as shown in Step 3, soil-like bacteria, filamentous fungi and other aerobic fermentation bacteria in the bamboo forest soil adhere to the raw raw bamboo A. In Step 4, the raw raw bamboo A to which the fermenting bacteria adheres is carried into the factory. The factory can be used where it can avoid direct sunlight and can take in outside air. In this embodiment, an agricultural greenhouse is installed with a temperature management system that consists of an open-and-close awning, a ventilation fan, a skylight, manual wind-up ventilators on both sides, and ventilating doors in the front-rear direction to block out direct sunlight. Used. Next, as shown in step 5, raw raw bamboo A is cut into a sawdust shape, for example, a particle size of about 500 μm to 200 μm with an existing cutting machine, and bamboo powder B is manufactured as shown in step 6. The water content of this bamboo powder B is about 70% by weight.

  Water is sprinkled on the obtained bamboo powder B, and after stirring, it is leveled and stacked in a factory so as to have a thickness of about 50 cm, and fermentation shown in Step 7 is started in a state where direct sunlight is avoided. Fermentation is performed by soil-like bacteria, filamentous fungi or other aerobic fermentation bacteria in the bamboo forest soil attached to raw raw bamboo A. Then, during fermentation, as shown in step 9, the fermentation proceeds as shown in step 9 by periodically repeating watering and turning back under temperature / humidity control as shown in step 8. The temperature in the bamboo powder B during fermentation is preferably about 35 to 40 degrees, and the humidity is preferably about 45 to 55%. This temperature / humidity control is performed by inserting a rod-shaped thermometer and a halogen moisture meter into bamboo powder at a regular time every day (measured every day at 10 am in this embodiment). And the temperature is adjusted by watering and turning back, and the amount of water is adjusted by watering. The important thing in this fermentation process is to manage the temperature and humidity every day until the completion of the fermentation, to cure so as not to be exposed to direct sunlight, and to repeat watering and turning over so that the fermentation temperature does not exceed 45 degrees. .

  This cut-back means scooping up the bottom of the laminated bamboo powder B during fermentation using a small tractor or scoop so that the temperature does not exceed 45 degrees in order to prevent the death of the fermenting bacteria in the bamboo powder B, It is to mix and agitate with the lower temperature upper part to maintain an appropriate fermentation temperature (35 degrees to 40 degrees). It should be performed once every 1 to 3 days. The operations of Step 8 and Step 9 are repeated until the measurement temperature of the bamboo powder B being fermented is 30 degrees or less indicating the end of fermentation. Although it depends on the environment and the season in the factory, the temperature of the bamboo powder B is about 30 degrees or less in about 1 to 2 weeks, and the fermentation is completed as shown in Step 10, and the fermented bamboo powder C shown in Step 11 is obtained. Manufactured.

  In addition, in the fermentation process shown in Step 7 to Step 10, since the fermenting bacteria are killed when the bamboo powder B is exposed to direct sunlight, the open / close type sunshade awning is operated according to the weather so as not to be exposed to direct sunlight. . In addition, if the outside air temperature in the factory is 15 degrees or less, the bamboo powder B is covered with a sheet, and if the outside temperature is 15 degrees or more, the operation of the ventilation fan, the awning awning, the skylight, the manual hoisting ventilation device on both sides, The temperature inside the factory is controlled by opening and closing the ventilating doors in the front-rear direction, and the temperature inside the factory is adjusted to a range of 15 to 35 degrees, that is, 15 degrees or more in winter and 35 degrees or less in summer. To do.

  Next, this fermented bamboo powder C is spread to a thickness of about 20 cm in the factory and dried until the water content is about 30% by weight as shown in step 12 while periodically turning it over. In this embodiment, natural drying is performed in the factory, but forced drying using a dryer or the like may be used.

  Then, the dried fermented bamboo powder C is passed through a 5 mm mesh sieving machine shown in step 13, and as shown in step 14, things other than powdered bodies such as bamboo powder lump and rough bamboo scraps are removed. As a result of drying in Step 12, the fermented bamboo powder C that has been agglomerated by moisture is dispersed in powder form, and can pass through the mesh of the 5 mm mesh sieve shown in Step 13, and the bamboo powder lump and raw raw bamboo A This is because things other than powdered bodies such as rough bamboo scraps mixed in the bamboo powder B during cutting cannot pass through the 5 mm mesh of the sieving machine. In addition, when the moisture content of the fermented bamboo powder C greatly exceeds 30% by weight, the fermented bamboo powder C itself is agglomerated and does not pass through the mesh of the sieving machine. It will be discharged together with things other than powder.

  Thereafter, as shown in step 15, the fermented bamboo powder C from which things other than the powdery body have been removed is dried to a moisture content of about 10% by weight or less, preferably about 5% by weight or less by the same means as in step 12. The closer the water content is to zero, the higher the deodorizing power, the wider the range of use, and the dehumidifying action.

  Next, as shown in step 16, the powder is pulverized to a fine powder having a particle size of about 30 μm or less using a known mill, and the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D shown in step 17 is obtained. Thus, by making it a fine powder with a particle size of about 30 μm or less, the surface area is expanded, the deodorizing power is improved, and when used as a deodorizing agent, etc., there is an immediate effect, and the usage is versatile and versatile To spread.

  FIG. 2 is a system diagram schematically showing a second embodiment of a process for producing a fermented fine powder bamboo powder according to the present invention. The same steps as those in the first embodiment shown in FIG. The description is omitted. This second embodiment diagram shows adhesion of soil fungi, filamentous fungi and other fermenting fungi by leaving raw raw bamboo A on the ground of the logging area of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 (step 2) (step 3). ) Are omitted, and other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment. In other words, since the raw raw bamboo A that has been cut is originally attached with soil-like fungi, filamentous fungi and other fermenting fungi, even if these steps are omitted, the bamboo powder is passed through the steps below. B is fermented by soil bacteria, filamentous bacteria and other aerobic fermentation bacteria.

  FIG. 3 is a system diagram schematically showing a third embodiment of a process for producing fermented fine powder bamboo powder according to the present invention, which is the same as the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 and the second embodiment shown in FIG. Steps are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

In the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, in order to obtain the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D first, the raw raw bamboo A is left on the ground of the felling land in step 2, and in the bamboo forest soil as shown in step 3. Fermentation was performed by attaching soil-like bacteria, filamentous fungi, and other aerobic fermentation bacteria to raw raw bamboo A. Further, in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 2, Steps 2 and 3 of the first embodiment are omitted, and soil-like fungi, filamentous fungi and other aerobic fermentation originally attached to the raw raw bamboo A Fermentation was performed using bacteria. In the third embodiment shown in FIG. 3, since fermented fine powder bamboo powder D has already been obtained, this was stored and stored in bamboo powder B shown in step 6 as shown in step 18. The fermentation shown in Step 7 is started together with the fermenting bacteria originally attached to the raw raw bamboo A by adding about 30 to 50% by weight of the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D and mixing them. Subsequent steps are the same as those in the first embodiment. Thereafter, the produced fermented fine powder bamboo powder D can be stored and added to the bamboo powder B for stable fermentation to produce the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D.

  In addition, the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D manufactured in the first embodiment or the second embodiment is subjected to trial and error until the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D exhibiting the desired effect and function is obtained, and the ground left in step 2 is left. A plurality of fermented finely powdered bamboo powder D was produced at different locations, times and periods, and sorted from among them to obtain fermented finely powdered bamboo powder D having a desired effect and function. This fermented fine powder bamboo powder D is inspected, packaged and sold as a product.

  The obtained fermented fine powder bamboo powder D is in a dry state and is a fine powder having a wide surface area per unit weight, and therefore has a variety of active ingredients of bamboo, especially deodorizing power and deodorizing power. It has excellent antibacterial properties, is easy to spray and has immediate effect. Therefore, the filtered fine powder bamboo powder D as it is or after being dispersed in a predetermined amount of water can be used as a deodorant or bathing agent. Moreover, it is 100% natural and can be used with confidence. It can also be used as a fertilizer.

  In addition, branches, leaves, tip parts, bent cocoon parts, or the remaining cocoon parts produced from bamboo powder B other than the cocoon part of raw raw bamboo A are cut into chips and fermented in the same process as bamboo powder B. The deodorized product is inferior to the fermented fine powder bamboo powder D but can be used as a deodorant as it is, or it can be used as a fertilizer by mixing chicken manure and further fermenting it.

  As a deodorant, it is possible to deal with the odors that occur when living a social life, not only the odors caused by humans, animals, and plants, but also artificial odors. It is possible to deodorize. In use, since it is in the form of fine powder or liquid, appropriate means such as spraying, laying, and spraying can be employed as they are.

[Usage example as deodorant]
