Description

[0001] Apparatus for treating laundry including sterilizing water [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a garment disposal kit including a sterilizing water kit, and more particularly, to a garment disposing kit comprising a sterilizing water kit The present invention relates to a garment disposal apparatus.

As known, disinfectants are materials used for the purpose of sterilization. Examples of such disinfectants include chlorine (Cl ₂ ), chloramine (NH ₂ Cl), chlorine dioxide (ClO ₂ ), ozone (O ₃ ) and ultraviolet .

In general, concentrations of disinfectant species less than 1 ppm in aqueous solutions are known to extinguish a wide variety of microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, bacteria and spores. In addition, disinfectants with increased concentrations up to several hundred ppm can be used in a variety of applications such as treatment of wastewater or industrial water (eg, cooling water), disinfection of fruits and vegetables, treatment of sulfites in the petroleum industry, And are known to provide higher bactericidal performance and oxidation effects.

On the other hand, the disinfectant has a function of removing the phenolic flavor and odor from the water by decomposing it by reacting with the phenolic compound, and also has a function of removing cyanide, sulfied, aldehyde and mercaptan from drinking water or wastewater to also be used for processing for removing mercaptan), such a chlorine (Cl ₂₎ of the most commonly used among antiseptic is a chemically stable material, with a residual manufacturing cost is low and mainly also disinfection of the treated water or a home and businesses And so on. In addition, chlorine (Cl ₂ ) used as a disinfectant is mostly used as a solution of chlorine gas or sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution is generally circulated in a highly concentrated state. Considerable safety precautions are required.

In addition, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution has high volatility and is not easy to store for a long period of time. Since it is generally provided at a high concentration, it is troublesome to use it diluted every time when it is actually used. Is always difficult to maintain constantly, there is a problem that its application range and application are very limited.

In general, chlorine (Cl ₂ ) disinfection produces a large amount of disinfection by-products, which are carcinogens. Such disinfection by-products are known to be very harmful to human body. In addition, when chlorine is used as a disinfectant, a large amount of chlorine-resistant mutants among existing bacteria may be generated, which may result in deterioration of the effectiveness of disinfection. In examining other disinfectants for replacing such chlorine disinfectants, It is expensive, or the disinfecting effect is low, and it is also difficult to store and manage, which is not easy to replace.

On the other hand, as a typical disinfectant other than chlorine disinfectant, there are ozone (O ₃ ) and ultraviolet (UV) as mentioned above. In case of disinfectant such as ozone or ultraviolet rays, sterilization is excellent and disinfection by- Although it is safe, it has no persistence, its cost is high, its processing process is complicated, and it is used in most industrial applications. Particularly, ozone (O ₃ ) is unstable in water and there is a danger of regrowth of germs in water, so it is inconvenient to use it in combination with other disinfectants.

In addition, chloramine and chlorine dioxide, which are different from chlorine in the same chlorine-based disinfectant, are inexpensive in terms of cost and have very little disinfection byproducts. However, in the case of chloramine, The disinfection effect is lowered. In the case of chlorine dioxide, since the disinfecting effect is excellent but the water is not soluble in water, the treatment process is complicated and difficult, and thus it is not suitable for domestic or business use.

On the other hand, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-34375 proposes a portable sterilization container of the above-mentioned common sense range. This is a cylindrical container filled with a sterilizing water which can be used as it is adjusted with a pH of 4 to 8 and a residual chlorine concentration of 10 to 2,000 ppm by adding an acid such as hydrochloric acid to sodium hypochlorite together with compressed gas or liquefied gas. The tubular container includes a spray nozzle, and the sterilizing liquid is sprayed by the gas pressure as the spray nozzle is pressed. However, since the disinfecting water adjusted as described above drops with the lapse of time, there is no guarantee that the disinfecting water in the prior art can use sterilized water having sufficient disinfecting power when the user needs it.
