Description

本発明は帯電微粒子水による食品保存方法及び食品保存装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a food preservation method and a food preservation apparatus using charged fine particle water.

一般に果物や根菜のような野菜を保管した場合、時間の経過と共に黴や臭いが発生する。また水分の減少により新鮮さを失ってしまう。   In general, when vegetables such as fruits and root vegetables are stored, strawberries and odors develop over time. It also loses freshness due to the loss of moisture.

近年、食品を収納して保存する収納庫内にマイナスイオンを発生するイオン発生器を設け、イオン発生器で発生したＯ２ −、ＣＯ４ −等のマイナスイオンを収納庫内に供給する食品保存庫が提供されている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。かかる食品保存庫ではイオン発生器で発生したマイナスイオンで食品周囲に浮遊している細菌類や食品に付着している細菌類が殺菌され、また食品の酸化変質が抑制される。またイオン発生器以外に加湿器を有しており、加湿器で水の粒子を食品の表面に当てることで水分補給できるようになっている。 In recent years, an ion generator that generates negative ions is provided in a storage for storing and storing food, and negative ions such as O 2 − and CO 4 − generated by the ion generator are supplied to the storage. A warehouse is provided (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In such a food storage, bacteria floating around the food and bacteria adhering to the food are sterilized by negative ions generated by the ion generator, and oxidation deterioration of the food is suppressed. Moreover, it has a humidifier other than an ion generator, and it can be rehydrated by applying water particles to the surface of food with the humidifier.

また前記活性種は、ヒドロキシラジカル又はスーパーオキサイドであることも好ましい。   The active species is also preferably a hydroxyl radical or superoxide.

上記構成により、ナノメータサイズで且つ活性種を含んだ帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成して食品Ｆに供給でき、帯電微粒子水Ｍが食品Ｆの表皮の細孔の内部まで浸透すると共に帯電微粒子水Ｍが表皮の細孔内部に浸透した状態で活性種が作用するものであって、食品Ｆの表皮の細孔内部で活性種が作用して殺菌をしたり消臭したりエチレンガスを除去したりできると共に食品Ｆの表皮の細孔内部で保湿でき、従来に比べて防黴、防臭、エチレンガスの除去及び保湿等の効果を充分に発揮できて食品Ｆを長期に亙って新鮮に保存できる。   With the above configuration, the charged fine particle water M having an active species including nanometer size can be generated and supplied to the food F. The charged fine particle water M penetrates into the pores of the skin of the food F and the charged fine particle water M The active species act in a state of permeating into the pores of the epidermis, and the active species can act inside the pores of the epidermis of food F to sterilize, deodorize, or remove ethylene gas. At the same time, the moisture can be kept inside the pores of the skin of the food F, and the effects of anti-fouling, deodorization, removal of ethylene gas, moisturizing, etc. can be fully exerted compared to the conventional one, and the food F can be stored fresh for a long time.

本発明は、活性種を含んだ帯電微粒子水を生成して食品に供給でき、帯電微粒子水が食品の表皮の細孔内部まで浸透すると共に帯電微粒子水が表皮の細孔内部に浸透した状態で活性種が作用するものであって、食品の表皮の細孔内部で活性種が作用して殺菌をしたり消臭したりエチレンガスを除去したりできると共に食品の表皮の細孔内部で保湿でき、従来に比べて防黴、防臭、エチレンガスの除去及び保湿等の効果を充分に発揮できて食品を長期に亙って新鮮に保存できるという効果がある。   In the present invention, charged fine particle water containing active species can be generated and supplied to food.

以下、本発明を添付図面に示す実施形態に基いて説明する。キッチンに設ける収納庫４は本例の場合、床下収納庫であって、図１に示すようにキッチンのキッチンキャビネット８の手前の床下に設けてある。かかる収納庫４はキッチンキャビネット８内に設けられるものでも、キッチンのその他の部分に設けられるものでもよい。収納庫４内には収納庫４内に空気を循環させる空気循環ユニットＢを内装してあり、空気循環ユニットＢ内には図２に示すようにダクト９を内装してあり、ダクト９の途中にはシロッコファンのようなファン５を内装してあり、ファン５を駆動することにより空気循環ユニットＢの入口６から収納庫４内の空気を吸い込んで空気循環ユニットＢの出口１０から収納庫４内に吐出するようになっている。空気循環ユニットＢの入口６にはフィルター７を設けてあり、空気循環ユニットＢの出口１０の近傍には食品保存装置としての静電霧化装置Ａを内装してある。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. In this example, the storage 4 provided in the kitchen is an underfloor storage, and is provided under the floor in front of the kitchen cabinet 8 of the kitchen as shown in FIG. The storage 4 may be provided in the kitchen cabinet 8 or may be provided in other parts of the kitchen. An air circulation unit B that circulates air in the storage 4 is provided in the storage 4, and a duct 9 is provided in the air circulation unit B as shown in FIG. Includes a fan 5 such as a sirocco fan. By driving the fan 5, the air in the storage 4 is sucked from the inlet 6 of the air circulation unit B and the storage 4 is discharged from the outlet 10 of the air circulation unit B. It is designed to be discharged inside. A filter 7 is provided at the inlet 6 of the air circulation unit B, and an electrostatic atomizer A as a food storage device is provided in the vicinity of the outlet 10 of the air circulation unit B.

静電霧化装置Ａは、一対の電極として機能する水粒子放出部１及び対向電極２と、前記水粒子放出部１に水Ｗを供給するための水供給手段と、水粒子放出部１と対向電極２との間に高電圧を印加する電圧印加部３とを備えたもので、水粒子放出部１と対向電極２との間に高電圧を印加することで水粒子放出部１からナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水（ミスト）Ｍを生成するものである。   The electrostatic atomizer A includes a water particle discharge unit 1 and a counter electrode 2 that function as a pair of electrodes, water supply means for supplying water W to the water particle discharge unit 1, a water particle discharge unit 1, A voltage application unit 3 for applying a high voltage between the counter electrode 2 and a nanometer from the water particle emitting unit 1 by applying a high voltage between the water particle emitting unit 1 and the counter electrode 2. A size of charged fine particle water (mist) M is generated.

図３に示す静電霧化装置Ａの例では、液溜め部１２と、下端が液溜め部１２内に入れられて水Ｗに浸された多孔質材からなる棒状の搬送部１３と、これらの搬送部１３の保持及び水Ｗに対する電圧印加のための液印加電極１４と、前記搬送部１３の先端部の水粒子放出部１と対向する対向電極２と、上記液印加電極１４と対向電極２との間に高電圧を印加する電圧印加部３とからなる。   In the example of the electrostatic atomizer A shown in FIG. 3, the liquid reservoir 12, the rod-shaped transport unit 13 made of a porous material whose lower end is placed in the liquid reservoir 12 and immersed in water W, and these The liquid application electrode 14 for holding the transport unit 13 and applying a voltage to the water W, the counter electrode 2 facing the water particle discharge unit 1 at the tip of the transport unit 13, and the liquid application electrode 14 and the counter electrode 2 and a voltage applying unit 3 for applying a high voltage between them.

対向電極２と液印加電極１４は共にカーボンのような導電材を混入した合成樹脂やステンレス鋼のような金属で形成してある。   Both the counter electrode 2 and the liquid application electrode 14 are formed of a synthetic resin mixed with a conductive material such as carbon or a metal such as stainless steel.

搬送部１３は多孔質材で棒状に形成するもので、本実施形態では粒径が２〜５００μｍのセラミック粒子からなり、その隙間の細孔が１〜２５０μｍで連続気泡状に配置されるように形成してある。搬送部１３の上端は針状に尖った水粒子放出部１となっており、搬送部１３の上部が液印加電極１４よりも上方に突出し、下部が液印加電極１４から下方に突出して上記液溜め部１２内に入れられた水Ｗと接触するようになっている。   The conveyance unit 13 is formed of a porous material in a rod shape, and in this embodiment, the conveyance unit 13 is made of ceramic particles having a particle size of 2 to 500 μm, and the pores in the gaps are arranged in an open cell shape with 1 to 250 μm. It is formed. The upper end of the transport unit 13 is a needle-shaped water particle discharge unit 1. The upper part of the transport unit 13 protrudes upward from the liquid application electrode 14, and the lower part projects downward from the liquid application electrode 14. The water W placed in the reservoir 12 comes into contact with the water W.

対向電極２は接地してあり、液印加電極１４に電圧印加部３を接続して高電圧を印加すると共に、多孔質材で形成されている搬送部１３が毛細管現象により液溜め部１２に入れてある水Ｗを吸い上げている時、搬送部１３の上端の水粒子放出部１が液印加電極１４側の実質的な電極として機能する。電圧印加部３としては、電界強度が５００Ｖ／ｍｍ以上、特に７００〜１２００Ｖ／ｍｍの電界強度を与えることができるものが好ましい。   The counter electrode 2 is grounded, the voltage application unit 3 is connected to the liquid application electrode 14 to apply a high voltage, and the transport unit 13 formed of a porous material is put into the liquid storage unit 12 by capillary action. When the water W is sucked up, the water particle discharge unit 1 at the upper end of the transport unit 13 functions as a substantial electrode on the liquid application electrode 14 side. The voltage application unit 3 is preferably one that can give an electric field strength of 500 V / mm or more, particularly 700 to 1200 V / mm.

そして、電圧印加部３より搬送部１３と対向電極２との間に高電圧を印加することで、水粒子放出部１の水Ｗが高電圧により大きなエネルギーを受けて表面張力を超えて分裂を繰り返すという所謂レイリー分裂を起こしてナノメータサイズの粒子径の帯電微粒子水Ｍ（例えば１０〜３０ナノメータ）を発生させる静電霧化がなされ、この時、同時に生成された反応性に富む活性種（ヒドロキシラジカル、スーパーオキサイド等の脱臭・除菌の源となる物質）が分裂した帯電微粒子水Ｍに内包されるように含まれて空気中に飛び出す。このようにして水粒子放出部１から活性種を含んだナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水Ｍを発生させるものである。   Then, by applying a high voltage between the transport unit 13 and the counter electrode 2 from the voltage application unit 3, the water W of the water particle discharge unit 1 receives a large energy from the high voltage and splits beyond the surface tension. Electrostatic atomization that causes so-called Rayleigh splitting to generate charged fine particle water M (for example, 10 to 30 nanometers) having a nanometer size particle size is performed. A substance which is a source of deodorization and sterilization such as radicals and superoxide) is contained so as to be encapsulated in the divided charged fine particle water M and jumps out into the air. In this way, nanometer-sized charged fine particle water M containing active species is generated from the water particle emitting portion 1.

活性種は非常に反応性に富むため、悪臭成分の分解や黴発生の抑制に高い効果を発揮するが、その反応性が高いため単独で存在する場合には寿命が非常に短い。しかしながら、静電霧化装置Ａにより得られるナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水Ｍにおいては、活性種が水分子に包み込まれているように存在しているため寿命が長くなり、しかも、上記のようにナノメータサイズと非常に小さいので空気中に長時間浮遊すると共に拡散性が高く、空間の広い範囲において活性種（ヒドロキシラジカル、スーパーオキサイド等）により空気中の脱臭効果、黴や菌の除菌や繁殖の抑制効果を高めることができ、更に、帯電微粒子水Ｍはナノメータサイズと非常に小さいので、果物や野菜等の食品Ｆの表面の細孔内部に入り込むことが可能で食品Ｆの表面の付着臭の除去ができることとなる。以下、臭気とナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水Ｍに含まれた活性種の脱臭反応式を示す。   Active species are extremely reactive, and thus have a high effect on the decomposition of malodorous components and the suppression of soot generation. However, when they are present alone, their lifetime is very short. However, in the nanometer-sized charged fine particle water M obtained by the electrostatic atomizer A, the active species exist as if encapsulated in water molecules, so that the lifetime is increased, and the nanometer as described above. Because it is very small in size, it floats in the air for a long time and has high diffusivity. In a wide range of space, active species (hydroxy radicals, superoxide, etc.) deodorize the air, disinfect and propagate bacteria and bacteria. The suppression effect can be enhanced, and furthermore, the charged fine particle water M is very small with nanometer size, so it can enter the pores on the surface of the food F such as fruits and vegetables, and the odor on the surface of the food F can be reduced. It can be removed. Hereinafter, the deodorization reaction formula of the active species contained in the odor and the nanometer-sized charged fine particle water M is shown.

冷却部１６ｂは、内部に結露水からなる水Ｗを溜めることができる液溜め部１２が形成されるように上方に開口する略皿状に形成してあり、この冷却部１６ｂの内部上面に液印加電極１４が設けてある。   The cooling unit 16b is formed in a substantially dish shape that opens upward so that the liquid reservoir 12 that can store water W composed of condensed water is formed therein, and a liquid is formed on the inner upper surface of the cooling unit 16b. An application electrode 14 is provided.

液印加電極１４は、上端部が水粒子放出部１となるもので、多孔質材で形成されるか微細孔や微細溝（図４の例では微細孔１７）を有しており、その下端部の液溜め部１２に貯水されている水Ｗを毛細管現象にて放電部となる上端部の水粒子放出部１まで搬送可能な搬送部１３となるようにしてある。また、水粒子放出部１を金属で形成したり金属製の表面膜を形成したりして表面の熱伝導性を高く形成すると共に冷却部１６ｂに熱的に接続されるように取り付けることで、水粒子放出部１の表面に直接水Ｗを結露させるようにしてもよい。また上端部が水粒子放出部１となる多孔質セラミック等からなる搬送部１３に液印加電極１４を設けてもよい。   The liquid application electrode 14 has an upper end portion serving as the water particle discharge portion 1 and is formed of a porous material or has a fine hole or a fine groove (a fine hole 17 in the example of FIG. 4). The water storage unit 12 is configured to be a transport unit 13 capable of transporting the water W stored in the liquid storage unit 12 to the water particle discharge unit 1 at the upper end as a discharge unit by capillary action.

The surplus water storage tank T can be discharged.

収納庫４内に果物や野菜等の食品Ｆを収納して保存する。食品Ｆを保存するとき空気循環ユニットＢのファン５が駆動されて空気循環ユニットＢの入口６から収納庫４内の空気が吸い込まれ、空気循環ユニットＢの出口１０から空気が収納庫４内に吐出するように空気が循環する。このとき、静電霧化装置Ａでは電圧印加部３にて水粒子放出部１と対向電極２との間に高電圧が印加され、ナノメータサイズの粒子径の帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成させる静電霧化が行なわれる。この静電霧化により生成された帯電微粒子水Ｍはファン５によって送風される空気と一緒に収納庫４内を循環し、食品Ｆに帯電微粒子水Ｍが付与される。この静電霧化装置Ａによる静電霧化にて活性種を含んだナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成して食品Ｆに供給できる。このナノメータサイズの帯電微粒子水Ｍは食品Ｆの表皮の細孔の内部まで浸透すると共に帯電微粒子水Ｍが表皮の細孔内部に浸透した状態で活性種が作用するものであって、食品Ｆの表皮の細孔内部で活性種が作用して殺菌をしたり消臭したりエチレンガスを除去したりできると共に食品Ｆの表皮の細孔内部で保湿することができる。これにより、従来に比べて防黴、防臭、エチレンガスの除去及び保湿等の効果を充分に発揮できて食品Ｆを長期に亙って新鮮に保存できる。また静電霧化装置Ａで静電霧化した帯電微粒子水Ｍが空気循環ユニットＢのファン５による送風にて循環させることができるため静電霧化装置Ａにて霧化した帯電微粒子水Ｍを収納庫４の隅々まで行き亙らせて食品Ｆに隈なく付与できる。   The storage 4 stores and stores food F such as fruits and vegetables. When the food F is stored, the fan 5 of the air circulation unit B is driven to suck the air in the storage 4 from the inlet 6 of the air circulation unit B, and the air enters the storage 4 from the outlet 10 of the air circulation unit B. Air circulates to discharge. At this time, in the electrostatic atomizer A, a high voltage is applied between the water particle emitting unit 1 and the counter electrode 2 by the voltage application unit 3 to generate electrostatically charged fine particle water M having a nanometer size particle diameter. Atomization takes place. The charged fine particle water M generated by the electrostatic atomization circulates in the storage 4 together with the air blown by the fan 5, and the charged fine particle water M is given to the food F. The electrostatic atomization by the electrostatic atomizer A can generate nanometer-sized charged fine particle water M containing active species and supply it to the food F. The nanometer-sized charged fine particle water M penetrates into the pores of the epidermis of the food F and the active species act in a state where the charged fine particle water M penetrates into the pores of the epidermis. Active species can act inside the pores of the epidermis to sterilize, deodorize, or remove ethylene gas, and to keep the moisture inside the pores of the food F. Thereby, compared with the past, effects, such as anti-fouling, deodorization, removal of ethylene gas, and moisturizing, can be sufficiently exhibited, and the food F can be stored fresh for a long period of time. Further, since the charged fine particle water M electrostatically atomized by the electrostatic atomizer A can be circulated by blowing air from the fan 5 of the air circulation unit B, the charged fine particle water M atomized by the electrostatic atomizer A is used. Can be applied to the food F without wandering to every corner of the storage 4.

上記のように静電霧化装置Ａにて水Ｗを静電霧化して帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成するが、図４に示すような静電霧化装置Ａを用いると、ペルチェユニット１６の冷却により結露させた結露水を静電霧化により帯電微粒子水Ｍを形成するための水Ｗとして用いることができる。これにより、収納庫４内から回収した結露水を利用して静電霧化装置Ａにて帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成できるものであって、水Ｗを補給したりすることなく帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成できる。また上記のように空気循環ユニットＢのファン５による送風にて循環する空気からペルチェユニット１６による冷却にて結露させるために循環する空気の除湿ができる。これにより収納庫４内の除湿をすることができ、収納庫４内に収納した食品Ｆが高湿度により劣化するのを防止できる。   As described above, the electrostatic atomization device A electrostatically atomizes the water W to generate the charged fine particle water M. When the electrostatic atomization device A as shown in FIG. 4 is used, the Peltier unit 16 is cooled. The condensed water condensed by the above can be used as water W for forming the charged fine particle water M by electrostatic atomization. Thereby, the charged fine particle water M can be generated by the electrostatic atomizer A using the condensed water collected from the inside of the storage 4, and the charged fine particle water M can be supplied without replenishing the water W. Can be generated. Further, as described above, the air that is circulated by the Peltier unit 16 can be dehumidified from the air that is circulated by the air blown by the fan 5 of the air circulation unit B. Thereby, dehumidification in the storage 4 can be performed and the food F stored in the storage 4 can be prevented from being deteriorated by high humidity.

また空気循環ユニットＢのファン５を駆動して空気を収納庫４内に循環させたとき、空気循環ユニットＢの入口６に設けたフィルター７にて入口６から入った空気から塵埃等が除去される。このとき静電霧化装置Ａがペルチェユニット１６の冷却により結露水を回収する構造の場合、結露水に塵埃等が混じることがなく、静電霧化装置Ａで静電霧化して帯電微粒子水Ｍを生成するときの弊害を生じることがない。   Also, when the fan 5 of the air circulation unit B is driven to circulate the air into the storage 4, dust or the like is removed from the air that has entered from the inlet 6 by the filter 7 provided at the inlet 6 of the air circulation unit B. The At this time, when the electrostatic atomizer A has a structure in which the dew condensation water is collected by cooling the Peltier unit 16, dust or the like is not mixed with the dew condensation water. There is no adverse effect when M is generated.

またこのフィルター７にエチレン除去触媒を内蔵させてあることが好ましい。このエチレン除去触媒はハニカム等の構造にしてある。フィルター７にエチレン除去触媒を内蔵させてあると、空気循環ユニットＢの入口６から入る空気からエチレンガスを除去でき、食品Ｆのエチレンガスによる劣化を一層防止できる。このエチレン除去触媒の具体的な例としては、活性炭やゼオライトなどの多孔質体にエチレン酸化酵素であるエチレンモノオキシナーゼを添加したもの、パラジウム触媒、光触媒等がある。   Moreover, it is preferable that an ethylene removal catalyst is built in the filter 7. The ethylene removal catalyst has a structure such as a honeycomb. When the ethylene removal catalyst is built in the filter 7, the ethylene gas can be removed from the air entering from the inlet 6 of the air circulation unit B, and the food F can be further prevented from being deteriorated by the ethylene gas. Specific examples of the ethylene removal catalyst include a porous material such as activated carbon or zeolite to which ethylene monooxynase as an ethylene oxidase is added, a palladium catalyst, a photocatalyst, and the like.

また本発明の食品収納庫の収納庫４内に食品Ｆを収納するとき、図５（ａ）に示すように収納庫４内で果物、野菜等の食品Ｆを単に積み重ねるように収納しても、図５（ｂ）に示すように収納庫４内の空気循環ユニットＢの上にスノコ２１を介して果物、野菜等の食品Ｆを積み重ねるように収納してもよい。かかるスノコ２１としては格子状のものでも網状のものでもよい。このようにスノコ２１を介して食品Ｆを収納してあると、通気性を向上できる。   Further, when the food F is stored in the storage 4 of the food storage of the present invention, the food F such as fruits and vegetables may be simply stacked in the storage 4 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5 (b), food F such as fruits and vegetables may be stacked on the air circulation unit B in the storage 4 via the slats 21. Such a slat 21 may be a grid or net. When the food F is stored through the slats 21 as described above, the air permeability can be improved.

また図６は空気循環ユニットＢの他の例を示すものである。空気循環ユニットＢ内のダクト９に入口６から出口１０に向けて順にフィルター７、ファン５、結露水生成装置１８、静電霧化装置Ａを内装してある。静電霧化装置Ａは図３に示すものと基本的に同じである。ファン５と静電霧化装置Ａとの間に設ける結露水生成装置１８は集水板１９とペルチェユニット１６とで構成されており、ペルチェユニット１６で冷却して結露させた水を集水板１９にて集水して静電霧化装置Ａの液溜め部１２に溜めるようになっている。   FIG. 6 shows another example of the air circulation unit B. A filter 7, a fan 5, a dew condensation water generator 18, and an electrostatic atomizer A are installed in the duct 9 in the air circulation unit B in order from the inlet 6 to the outlet 10. The electrostatic atomizer A is basically the same as that shown in FIG. The dew condensation water generating device 18 provided between the fan 5 and the electrostatic atomizer A is composed of a water collecting plate 19 and a Peltier unit 16, and the water collected by cooling by the Peltier unit 16 is condensed on the water collecting plate. At 19, water is collected and stored in the liquid reservoir 12 of the electrostatic atomizer A.

またフィルター７は第１フィルター７ａと第２フィルター７ｂの二層構造となっている。第１フィルター７ａは微細網目構造になっており、第２フィルター７ｂは活性炭若しくは酸化触媒を装填した構造になっている。ファン５を駆動して空気を循環させると、入口６から流入した空気は第１フィルター７ａ、第２フィルター７ｂを順に通過して浄化される。入口６から流入した空気が第１フィルター７ａを通過することで空気中の埃や浮遊微粒子が除去され、第２フィルター７ｂを通過することで空気中の不快臭成分が除去される。これにより、塵埃や不快臭成分が除去された空気が結露水生成装置１８に供給され、塵埃や不快成分が溶存しない結露水が結露水生成装置１８にて形成され、清浄な水が静電霧化装置Ａに供給されて静電霧化される。   The filter 7 has a two-layer structure of a first filter 7a and a second filter 7b. The first filter 7a has a fine mesh structure, and the second filter 7b has a structure loaded with activated carbon or an oxidation catalyst. When the fan 5 is driven to circulate the air, the air flowing from the inlet 6 passes through the first filter 7a and the second filter 7b in order and is purified. Air flowing in from the inlet 6 passes through the first filter 7a to remove dust and airborne particles in the air, and passes through the second filter 7b to remove unpleasant odor components in the air. As a result, air from which dust and unpleasant odor components have been removed is supplied to the dew condensation water generation device 18, dew condensation water in which dust and unpleasant components are not dissolved is formed in the dew condensation water generation device 18, and clean water is electrostatic mist. Is supplied to the atomizing apparatus A and is electrostatically atomized.

上記第２フィルター７ｂには空気中の不快臭成分を除去する活性炭若しくは酸化触媒に加えてエチレンガスを除去するエチレン除去触媒も装填してあってもよい。   The second filter 7b may be loaded with an ethylene removal catalyst for removing ethylene gas in addition to activated carbon or an oxidation catalyst for removing unpleasant odor components in the air.
