DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a method for producing a salt and a salt, and more particularly to a method for producing a creamy or powdery salt suitable for use in marine therapy or cosmetics, and a salt related thereto.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is well known that salt is produced by precipitating sodium chloride out of seawater components. Recently, however, salt containing not only sodium chloride but also other seawater components (such as mineral components) has been known. (Natural salt) is being reviewed.

[0003] Originally, it is said that the components of seawater are substantially the same as those of human blood. In view of this, natural salts are preferably introduced into the human body. More people are using it. In addition, the “Salt Coloring Health Method” that applies natural salt to the body and “Shiyu”, which adds natural salt to the bath, are not only health and beauty treatments, but also treatment methods for atopic dermatitis, etc. It has come to be advocated.

On the other hand, in Japan, most salt is currently
It is manufactured by a so-called ion exchange membrane method in which electrodialysis is performed using an ion exchange membrane. However, when seawater is used as a raw material in such an ion-exchange membrane method, sodium chloride (NaCl) becomes 99% or more, minerals are almost removed, and the salt becomes unsuitable for marine therapy and beauty. There was a problem.

[0005]

[0006]

According to the present invention, in a salt production method, a raw material salt solution comprising an oily component and a raw material salt is accommodated in a separation vessel, and a gas is fed into the raw material salt solution to perform bubbling. The above object was achieved by separating the upper salt layer and the lower enzyme salt layer, and taking out the cream salt layer to produce a creamy salt.

[0007] As the oil component, other oil components such as vegetable or animal fats and oils can be used.
For example, vegetable oils such as olive oil, rapeseed oil and corn oil are used. Rice bran can also be used as the oily component.

[0008] The raw material salt is not particularly limited.
Rock salt, solar salt, natural salt and the like can be used. Also, seawater or deep water can be used.

Further, the present invention has achieved the above-mentioned object by constituting a salt suitable for use in marine therapy or beauty treatment with a creamy salt containing sodium chloride, a bittern component and a predetermined extract. is there.

[0010] Similarly, the present invention provides a method for producing salt by gradually evaporating a liquid component from creamy salt by drying in the sun, drying in a cooler, or drying at a relatively low temperature using an electric furnace. The object has been achieved by producing a powdery salt.

[0011] Similarly, the present invention provides a salt suitable for use in marine therapy and beauty treatment, comprising a predetermined extract consisting of a plant extract of aloe, mozuku, rice bran, coral, herb extract or seaweed extract, sodium chloride, The above object has been achieved by comprising a powdery salt containing a bittern component.

[0012]

The present invention operates as follows. That is, a raw material salt solution composed of an oily component and a raw material salt is accommodated in a separation vessel, and a gas such as air is fed into the raw material salt solution to perform bubbling, whereby the upper cream salt layer and the lower And separate the cream salt layer to the outside. The cream salt thus taken out is composed of a cream-like salt containing sodium chloride, bittern component or a predetermined extract, and is suitable for use in marine therapy and beauty.

When the creamy salt is dried to produce a powdery salt, a predetermined extract consisting of a plant extract such as aloe, mozuku, rice bran, herb or seaweed, sodium chloride and a bittern component are obtained. A powdered salt is formed. This salt is also suitable for use in marine therapy and beauty.

The marine enzyme salt water is a concentrated salt water mixed with aloe, mozuku, or rice bran, or a plant extract (extract) such as bitter melon or carrot, or other plant extracts such as herbs or seaweeds. Sodium chloride may be dissolved and used. Also, as a manufacturing method, for example, about 1 kg of finely chopped aloe per 10 kg of concentrated salt water is immersed for a considerable time (for example, one month) to prepare an immersion liquid of aloe, and the immersion liquid is filtered to concentrate. For example, a method of mixing an appropriate amount into salt water is used.

The same applies to mozuku and rice bran. Aloe, mozuku, rice bran, coral extract, or other plant extracts may be used alone or in combination. Further, the raw material salt solution may be adjusted by adding starch or the like to the oil.

In place of the above oil, an oil component of rice bran may be used. For example, rice bran is immersed in concentrated salt water (for example, prepared by dissolving raw salt) for a considerable time to dehydrate the precipitated portion, and the dehydrated rice bran precipitate can be used instead of the above-mentioned olive oil. it can. Squalane oil can also be used.

In place of the marine enzyme salt water, the salt may be prepared by using a natural salt or the like, or seawater or deep water may be used.

The gas in the pipe 6 is taken out to the outside by using the pressure adjusting hose 5 or the like, and used as a gas or liquid (condensed) for marine therapy (or cosmetic). The bubbling momentum can be adjusted by adjusting the number of the pressure adjusting hoses 5.

After the above-described bubbling is performed for a certain period of time (for example, 10 to 12 hours), the pump 8 is stopped to stop the bubbling, and left for a while, the oil and the raw salt solution 11a, FIG. 11b changes gradually and separates into the following two layers as shown in FIG. That is, in FIG. 2, the upper layers in the separation containers 3a and 3b are cream salts 12a and 12b composed of a creamy salt containing sodium chloride, bitter (bitter) component and a predetermined extract, and the lower layer. The layer is a predetermined extract consisting of aloe, mozuku, rice bran, coral, plant extract, herb extract, or seaweed extract, sodium chloride, and enzyme salts 13a and 13b containing bittern components. Here, the enzyme salt generally refers to a salt containing an enzyme.
