Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a magnesium ion water supply device and a method of using water supply which can be used for food and drink.

[0002]

Despite the fact that magnesium is an essential mineral component for the human body, it has not heretofore been considered as important as mineral components such as calcium and iron. However, in recent years, it has become clear that deficiency of magnesium causes circulatory diseases such as stroke, cerebral infarction, and heart disease, and magnesium plays an important role in the human body. It is said that the required amount of magnesium per adult for these preventions is about 300 mg per day, but the actual intake is 230 mg on average according to the survey, and the daily intake is about 70 mg. Has become. That is, in the case of Japanese,
It is necessary to replenish a little less than 100 milligrams of magnesium every day by some method, and if this is realized, the mortality rate of stroke and heart disease, which is the next highest mortality rate after cancer, can be significantly reduced.

[0003]

However, ingestion of mineral components such as calcium and iron into the human body has been devised by various methods, but no such measures have been taken for magnesium. . Therefore, the present inventor has the above-mentioned stroke, cerebral infarction,
Various studies were conducted on how to ingest magnesium, which causes circulatory diseases such as heart disease.
In order to add magnesium ions to water, the principle of the filter tank is applied to remove the suspended matter while the water passes through the filtration layer, and at the same time, a material that elutes a trace amount of magnesium ions from the substances constituting the filtration layer is used. I thought it should be used. Various magnesium salts can be considered as the material, but salts such as chlorides and sulfates are not suitable because the elution rate is high, and carbonates are not suitable because the elution rate is too small, and therefore oxides are suitable. I thought it was there.

As a result, when magnesium oxide was used as an industrial material, seawater magnesia clinker (sintered magnesia), which is relatively inexpensively mass-produced, was used to perform an elution test into tap water. The elution amount was small, about 5 ppm, which was unfavorable for the production of magnesium-toluene. Then, when an experiment of leaching electrofused magnesia into tap water was attempted, it was found that, unlike sintered magnesia, the leaching amount of magnesium was unexpectedly large at about 11 ppm, and the present invention was accomplished here. is there. Therefore, the first problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a magnesium ion-to-water supply device that is used to naturally resolve lack of magnesium in daily life and reduce vascular disorders of the brain and heart. is there. Second problem to be solved by the invention
The present invention provides a method for using tofu which allows the tofu to be used for food and drink.

[0005]

The problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved by the following inventions. (1) At least one of the container-shaped members is provided in a magnesium ion-toluene supply device that is equipped with a water inlet and a water outlet, and in which a porous container with good water permeability is detachably attached to the water circulation portion. At least one selected from fused, granular and / or powdered electro-fused magnesia is filled in the magnesium ion-rich water supply device (2) Magnesium ion according to the above item 1. A method of using magnesium ion tofu, characterized in that the water that has passed through the tofu water supply device is used for soft drink water, brewing water, processed food water, instant food production water, fruit juice production, and milk addition.

The present invention will be described in more detail below. The magnesium ion-rich water supply device of the present invention is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet, and has a container shape which is porous and has good water permeability in the water flow portion. In a magnesium ion fertilizer supply device equipped with a detachable member, at least one of the container-shaped members is filled with at least one selected from lump-shaped, granular and / or powdered electro-melting magnesia This is a feature that makes it possible to easily obtain magnesium hydration, which has the excellent effect of naturally eliminating magnesium deficiency in daily life and reducing vascular disorders of the brain and heart. Is played. Further, the magnesium tofu obtained in this manner is for household or industrial use, and is used for soft drink water, brewing water, processed food water, instant food production water, fruit juice production, and milk addition. Can be offered.

Here, "at least one of the container-shaped members is filled with at least one kind selected from lump, granular and / or powdery electro-melting magnesia" means that the container-shaped member is charged with lump-shaped electric charges. Fused magnesia, granular fused magnesia,
Powdered electro-melting magnesia is filled respectively, and when only one of these is used, or in the container-like member, lump-like electro-melting magnesia and granular electro-melting magnesia, lump-like electro-melting magnesia and powder-like electro-melting magnesia Fused magnesia or granular electrofused magnesia and powdered electrofused magnesia are filled, and when only one of these is used, the container-shaped member also has a block-shaped electrofused magnesia and granular electrofused magnesia and powder. It means the case of using the one filled with the shape of electro-melted magnesia and the case of using the combination of at least two of them.

The electrofused magnesia used in the present invention can be used in the form of lumps, particles or powders.
50 mm to 10 mm, preferably 50 mm to 20
mm, and more preferably 40 mm to 20 mm. Further, the granular form is less than 9 mm to 0.1 mm, preferably 5 mm to 1 mm, and the granular form is less than 0.1 mm, preferably 0.08 mm or less. Those having such a form may be individually filled in the container-shaped members, or may be used in combination, or the container-shaped members may be mixed and mixed at an appropriate ratio and used.

In the present invention, the container-shaped member is not particularly limited as long as it is a porous and water-permeable material, and is made of, for example, cloth, net, porous material, etc., and has a bag shape. Any container or the like may be used. These container-shaped members are removably installed and replaced appropriately. These container-shaped members may be made by using a member having a filterability itself, or may be combined with a filter material or a filter sheet. It may have a property of removing smaller suspended matter, sterilizing chlorine, trihalomethane and the like by this filtration.

The constituent container or water tank of the magnesium ion fertilizer supply apparatus used in the present invention may have any shape as long as water can be stored, preferably a cylindrical shape or a box shape. In addition, in the magnesium ion fertilizer supply device, the water inlet is provided at the upper part and absorbs tap water or the like. In addition, a drain port is provided at the bottom to take out magnesium tofu. The size of this aquarium, the thickness of the magnesium filling layer, the particle size of the electro-fused magnesia to be filled, etc. are different for ordinary households, apartments and condominiums, and for water sources of public water supplies. The length or diameter of one side is 200 mm to 700 mm, and the height is 500 mm
A rectangular parallelepiped or cylindrical container having a diameter of up to 1000 mm is preferable, and the particle size of the electromelting magnesia to be filled is a lump, a particle, or a powdery single substance having a diameter of 50 mm or less, or a mixture thereof, and is 1/1 of the height of the water tank. The thickness of the filling layer may be 2 to 1/3. When used in the form of powder, the elution ability of magnesium ions is large in the short term, but the rate of decrease of the elution ability is fast,
Furthermore, if a large amount of powder is used, the water permeability of the filtration layer is reduced, so it is preferable to use it by appropriately mixing it with lump-shaped or granular electro-fused magnesia.

In the present invention, in the case of apartments, condominiums, and other common houses, the water supply device generally has a water tank provided on the roof or on a steel tower. In this case, the water tank is the water tank itself. It can be used as a constituent container of a magnesium ion tofu water supply device. In this case, a water-permeable porous container (cartridge) or an electrofused magnesia filled in a cloth bag is immersed in the water tank. It is sufficient to replace the cassette once every 2-3 months. In addition, when it is used as a filter layer of a water source for public water supply, one layer of electro-fused magnesia layer may be laid in addition to the filter layer. The duration of electrolysis magnesia's ability to dissolve magnesium ions into water is about 3 months. Furthermore, the magnesium ion tofu water supply device of the present invention can be used in combination with a water purifier, and a water purification filter may be interposed between the cartridges of the magnesium ion tofu water supply device of the present invention.

[0012]

In the magnesium ion tofu water supply device of the present invention, a porous container having good water permeability is detachably provided, and at least one of the container members has a lump shape,
When the drinking water passes through the container-like member, magnesium ions are eluted from the electro-melting magnesia to obtain magnesium-rich water by filling the granular and / or powdery electro-melting magnesia. Further, in the present invention,
Granular and / or powdered electro-melting magnesia are mixed appropriately and used, so the elution of magnesium ions can be controlled, and the container-like member filled with electro-melting magnesia should be replaced after about 3 months. The effect is that all you have to do is.

[0013]

The present invention will be described in more detail below, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

Test Example 1 As the magnesium oxide, seawater magnesia clinker (sintered magnesia) and electrofused magnesia were prepared, and an elution test was conducted using tap water. The sintered magnesia for comparison has a particle size of 1 mm to 0.1 mm, and the electro-melting magnesia used in the present invention includes a lump having a diameter of 5 mm, a particle size of 5 mm to 3 mm, a particle size of 3 mm to 1 mm, and a particle size. 1 mm ~
Five types having 0.1 mm and a particle size of 0.088 mm were used.

As shown in FIG. 1, the magnesium ion-rich water supply device for the test has a diameter of 300 mm and a height of 400 mm.
The water tank consisting of the cylindrical container 1 of mm has a lid 2 and the lid 2
Is equipped with a water inlet 3 on the upper surface of the
Is installed. In the test, magnesium oxide of each particle size described above was filled in a cartridge, and the cartridge was set in each of six water tanks. 1-6 were manufactured. Sample No. 1-6
Is shown as the converted amount to the magnesium oxide concentration of the eluted magnesium ion of the sample 30 seconds, 5 hours, and 1 month immediately after immersion in water. The results are shown in Tables 1 to 3.

[0016]

[Table 1]

[0017]

[Table 2]

[0018]

[Table 3]

As can be seen from Tables 1 to 3, in Test Example 1, when comparing electro-melted magnesia having the same particle size (1.0-0.1 mm) and sintered magnesia, it was 30 immediately after immersion in water. The amount of magnesium ion in the water after 2 seconds is converted into MgO concentration by about 11 ppm in the former and about 5 in the latter.
It became ppm, and it was found that the amount of eluting magnesia was about twice as large. Further, after 5 hours, the former shows about 30 ppm and the latter shows about 13 ppm, and it was found that the elution amount increased with the lapse of time. It was also found that the smaller the particle size of fused magnesia, the greater the amount of elution.

Further, the elution ability of magnesium ions tends to decrease with the immersion time of magnesia in water, but as is clear from Table 3, even after immersion in running water for one month, it is still sufficiently eluted. It was found that the excellent elution performance was exhibited over a long period of time.

Example 1 About 7 k of crushed electro-melted magnesia particles having a particle size of 1 to 0.5 mm
Put it in a bag woven with nylon fiber and g
After being placed in a liter plastic container with a stopcock, 10 liters of tap water was injected. Immediately after water injection, 0 minutes, 30 minutes, 60
After 2 minutes, 5 hours, and 7 hours, water was sampled from the stopcock at the bottom of the container, and the magnesium ion concentration in the water was measured as M.
It was converted to gO and quantified. After sampling, the remaining water was drained and replaced with new water. Change water daily, 1
After 5 days, 10 days, 20 days, 30 days, and 60 days, water was sampled by the same method as described above to measure the magnesia concentration. FIG. 2 shows the obtained results.
FIG. 2 is a graph showing the relationship between the magnesia concentration immediately after water injection and the number of days of water replacement. As is clear from FIG. 2, the magnesium elution amount sharply decreased until the water replacement days were around the 5th day, but gradually decreased thereafter.
It can be seen that the value is kept around 20 ppm by the end of a month. However, it decreased to about 15 ppm after 3 months (not shown).

Example 2 FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a household magnesium ion fertilizer supply device. In FIG. 3, the water tank 1 is provided with a lid 2 having a drinking water receiving port 3 on its upper surface. Further aquarium 1

In this water tank 1, a porous cartridge 6 filled with electro-melting magnesia having a different particle size is detachably arranged, and this cartridge 6 is filled with 2 kg of electro-melting magnesia having a particle size of 5 to 3 mm. , Grain size 3 ~
A cartridge 6b filled with 1 kg of 2 mm of electrofused magnesia and a cartridge 6c filled with 2 kg of 1 mm to 0.1 mm of electrofused magnesia were set. In this way, water was passed through the magnesium ion rich water supply device in which the cartridge was arranged. Magnesium fertilizer was obtained over a long period of time and remained at around 20 ppm until 2 months.

Example 3 Water was passed in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the magnesium ion rich water supply device shown in cross section in FIG. 4 was used.
With this device, the dissolved magnesium ions were stored at the bottom of the bottom, so the concentration was maintained at around 20 ppm for nearly 3 months.

Example 4 In the magnesium ion fertilizer supply apparatus shown in cross section in FIG. 3, a filter for water purification was used instead of the cartridge 6a, and the cartridge 6b had a particle size of 1 to 0.1 m.
Example 2 except that 2 kg of m of fused magnesia was filled.
Water was passed in the same way. In the tap water, substances such as chlorine and trihalomethane were removed by the water purification filter of the cartridge 6a, and magnesium water was obtained over a long period of time, and was maintained at around 20 ppm until 2 months.

According to the magnesium ion-rich water supply device of the present invention, at least one of the container-shaped members is filled with at least one kind selected from lump-shaped, granular and / or powdered electro-melting magnesia. , High-concentration magnesium ion water is always obtained, and the concentration is maintained for a long time. Therefore, in daily life, the magnesium deficiency can be used for drinking and drinking magnesium to naturally eliminate the magnesium deficiency and reduce vascular disorders of the brain and heart. Water for soft drinks, water for brewing, water for processing foods, water for producing instant foods, juice for fruit juice production, and milk addition by using the water from the water produced by the magnesium ion water supply apparatus of the present invention for household or industrial use It has an excellent effect that it can be used for.
