Abstract
The present invention generally relates to Bamboo more particularly to Bamboo Straw and method of making the straw, it was made from a"Tulos" with a scientific name Schizostachyum lumampao variety of bamboo. The eight reasons why it was invented are; Reason 1: It Change the lives of the Filipino Farmers-The current average income of the Bamboo Farmers at 200.00 pesos a day, versus the national average at 500.00 pesos. With this new innovation of Bamboo into Straws it will increase the income of the Bamboo Farmers to 550.00 pesos per day. Reason 2: A bolder step towards Green living- By choosing Bamboo Straw as an alternative to plastic you are making an active choice to reduce your carbon footprint and your plastic contribution to the landfills. Reason 3: Biodegradable- Converting to biodegradable Bamboo Straws can help promote the use of these products, while keeping harmful plastics out of landfills and oceans. Switching over is a small change that can have a very large impact. Reason 4: Reusable- Frappes, smoothies, juice, ice tea, whatever yours or your kids' favorite drink, a Bamboo straw completes it. It's like drinking from nature. Switch from Disposable to Reusable products, Bamboo Straws can be re-used and will last for 1 year, can be used every day anytime, anywhere. Reason 5: Reduce Plastic Waste- Plastic recycling is not a solution to the crisis; most of our plastic waste is landfilled, down cycled, and incinerated. Recycling plastic is costly and does not stop the production of virgin plastic products. This is why straws made from recycled plastic are not a solution but #Bamboo Straws is the solution. Philippines ranked 3rd in the world dumping plastic leaking into oceans; it generates 2.7 million metric tons of plastic garbage each year. Reason 6: Good for Health- Using a natural, organic straw made from bamboo eliminates the potential for ingesting chemicals. Bamboo straws are better than plastic when it comes to health. When you use plastic straws for hot beverages like tea, cocoa, and coffee, toxins can leach from the plastic and enter your body, often disrupting hormones and other negative side effects. Reason 7: All Purpose Straw- It can be used in smoothies, frappes, soft drinks, juices, gulaman based drinks or any beverages. Reason 8: Process naturally- These Bamboo Straws are made from organic bamboo endemic in one of the province in the Philippines. It undergoes a natural treatment and preservation to prevent Molds and Wood Bugs (Bukbok) growth.

PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING REUSABLE BAMBOO STRAW ~ -
=
The present invention generally relates to manufacturing of bamboo poles into =
Reusable Bamboo Straws. ~
The Reusable Bamboo Straw is completely biodegradable, made of organic and ~*~ natural materials it is the best eco-friendly alternative to plastic, steel or glass straws. Its = main purpose is to replace the existing plastic, stainless steel or glass straws. -
Bamboo is one of the most important nature’s substitutes for the endangered rainforest hardwoods. It is a quick-growing, versatile, non-timber forest product whose rate of biomass generation is unsurpassed by any other plants. With a 10-30 % annual increase in biomass versus 2-5 % for trees, bamboo creates greater yields of raw material for use. The strength of the culms, their straightness, smoothness, lightness combined with hardness and greater hollowness; the facility and regularity with which they can be split; the different sizes, various lengths and thickness of their joints make them suitable for numerous end products/purposes. Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the Philippines. Because it contains naturally-occurring antimicrobial agents, there is no need for using fertilizers or pesticides during its cultivation. This bamboo is totally organic and wild.
The present invention generally relates to the methods of manufacturing
Reusable Bamboo Straws from the bamboo species of Buho (Schizostachyum
Lumampao), Bikal (Dinochloa Diffusum) poles which is endemic in the Philippines and the branches of Giant Bamboo (Bambusa Oldhamii), Bolo (Gigantochloa Levis) and
Kiling {Bambusa Vulgaris Schrad) which process compromising the methods of (a)
Cutting the Bamboo Poles (b) Sanding the tip of the cut Bamboo Reusable Straw (c)
Cleaning (d) Boiling in a organic and natural solution (e) soak in a Baking Soda Organic -
Solution (f) drying for 5 hours using natural sun drying process (g) Quality check of ny moisture content. -
Bamboo Straw was made Buho (Schizostachyum Lumampao), Bikal (Dinochloa ~
Diffusum) poles which are endemic in the Philippines and the branches of Giant Bamboo (Bambusa Oldhamii), Bolo (Gigantochloa Levis) and Kiling (Bambusa Vulgaris Schrad) =
Bamboo straws are better than plastic when it comes to health. When you use - plastic straws for hot beverages like tea, cocoa, and coffee, toxins can leach from the plastic and enter your body, often disrupting hormones and other negative side effects.
Bamboo Straw can be used in different variety of beverages like frappes, smoothies, juice, ice tea or any beverages. It's like drinking from nature. Switch from Disposable to
Reusable products. Resistant and easy to clean, these straws won't rot or mold. High quality, sustainable real whole bamboo stalks. Bamboo Straws can be re-used and will last for 1 year, can be used every day anytime, anywhere.
PROCESS IN MANUFACTURING OF REUSABLE BAMBOO STRAW a. Cutting the Bamboo Poles to get desired size at 21 to 27 centimeters of Reusable
Bamboo Straw using 4-1/2 (115MM) Small Angle Grinder. - b. Sanding the tip of the cut Bamboo Pole using 4 x36 Belt and Disc Sander and Belt
Paper Sander P60E. ¢. Cleaning using the mature leaves of the Pakiling Tree (Ficos Odorata), Sponge and
Loofah. d. Boiling in an organic and natural solution for 30minutes using natural and organic ingredients 3 kilogram salt, 16 grams Baking Soda and 10 Liters of Water to prevent mold growth and preserve the natural anti-bacterial properties of Bamboo called
Bamboo Kun.
~ e. Soak in a Baking Soda organic solution 10 Grams of Baking Soda and 1 Liter Water for 4 to 5 Hours. o f. Drying for 5 hours using natural sun drying process, dying m 1 to 3 hours using a ~
Fruit and Vegetable Oven at 90 Degree Celsius and drying using Solar Dryer for 2 to - 5 Hours t reach the moisture content of 8% to 15%. = fo g. Quality check of moisture content using a Wood Moisture Meter, moisture content should be at 8% to 15%. = o
