Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for the continuous production of soda water or soda-like water by gastronomic businesses, canteens and / or by the consumer, and to a mixing container which is used in the device according to the invention.
- Carbonated beverages are highly valued by large sections of the population for their invigorating prickle.
- the carbonic acid has already been added by the bottling plant.
- lemonades in particular are also filled into barrel-like beverage containers that have two connections on their top.
- the inlet connection is connected to a carbon dioxide source, in particular a C0 2 gas bottle, the pressure of which on the one hand provides a solution to the sparkling C0 2 in the lemonade and on the other hand provides the necessary pressure to achieve the to press lemonade prepared in this way to a tap connected to the outlet of the container via a connecting hose.
- the lemonade enriched with C0 2 can then be removed if necessary. This process is used for all beverages served, including beer (where the C0 2 pressure is only used to promote the beer) and mineral water.
- the invention provides that water is passed from the drinking water network to a mixing tank, where it is mixed with C0 2 , and that the soda water formed is removed downstream of the mixing tank by opening a tap or tap. Only tap water and CO 2 gas are thus used as raw materials for the production of the soda water. Since tap water is available almost free of charge, the costs involved in producing soda water according to the invention in the production of mixed drinks are no longer significant compared to their main constituent, so that the expenses for the CO 2 - water from a catering establishment for serving such mixed drinks can be reduced to a negligible value. Of course, such soda water can also be drunk unmixed, since it consists of pure and therefore pollutant-free drinking water. The cost advantage compared to commercially available mineral water is even more apparent.
- tap water is cleaned of odors and / or flavors before it is enriched with CO 2 .
- Tap water is definitely free of any harmful substances. Nevertheless, in some cases there may be secretions from the line system which could be noticed by particularly sensitive palates when drinking in the form of "pure soda water”.
- the cleaning step according to the invention in particular within an upstream filter, also retains all floating particles , so that there is a particularly clear consistency.
- the tap water is cooled to a temperature of about 2 ° C. to 10 ° C., preferably 4 ° C. to 6 ° C., before enrichment with CO 2 .
- a temperature range especially at about 4 ° C, the solubility of C0 2 in water is highest, so that there is a particularly pronounced bubbling effect.
- the soda water has an ideal serving temperature when leaving the dispensing system.
- the method according to the invention allows the CO 2 content in the soda water to be varied by adjusting the pressure of the CO 2 added.
- Henry's law applies to the dissolution of gases in water, according to which the solubility of the gas at constant temperature is approximately proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the solution.
- the partial pressure of this gas and thus its solubility in the water can thus be set at the pressure reduction valve of the C0 2 bottle.
- Another possibility for influencing the C0 2 content in the soda water results from the subsequent addition of pure tap water by varying the mixing ratio between soda and pure tap water.
- the effective C0 2 content can be changed within wide limits.
- the device according to the invention which permits a continuous production of soda water by catering establishments, by canteens and / or by the end user, comprises a mixing container which is coupled on the flow side to the drinking water network and is connected on the outlet side to a tap or tap, and the is connected via a further connection to a pressure vessel in which CO 2 gas is contained.
- the arrangement is such that both the tap water and the CO 2 gas are offered to the mixing tank to a sufficient extent so that there is constantly CO 2 -containing water within the mixing tank, which is used for the short-term removal by the water - or tap is available. This enables continuous operation, so that when the soda water is poured out, the host does not have to carry out any further operations in addition to actuating the tap. Since the C0 2 is completely distributed within the mixing container within a very short period of time, the tap can also be kept open for a longer period so that larger quantities of soda water can be drawn off continuously.
- the invention provides a check valve with regard to the water pipes upstream of the mixing tank. Since a gas-tight valve is used here, it forms an insurmountable barrier for the CO 2 gas, so that there is no fear of any pressure loss here.
- a particularly favorable arrangement is obtained if upstream of the mixing container and / or the check valve there is a tap water flowed cooling device is arranged.
- the water is pre-cooled before it enters the mixing container, which can optionally be thermally insulated, so that the inflowing CO 2 gas finds a low water temperature and therefore dissolves particularly well.
- the soda water drawn off also has an optimal drinking temperature.
- a filter can be arranged upstream of the mixing container, the check valve and / or the cooling device.
- harmful substances, taste substances and odorous substances as well as any floating particles can be removed completely from the tap water, so that even the highest purity conditions can be met.
- a filter is used for this purpose which allows dissolved minerals and lime to pass through unhindered, since such substances have a taste-improving effect.
- other components such as chlorine or pathogens are retained. It has proven to be advantageous to use a filter with an absorption chamber for this purpose, in which a silver-enriched activated carbon bed is contained.
- Such a filter can also have a device which shuts off the water flow when the filter is completely used up, so that the innkeeper immediately recognizes that the filter must now be replaced.
- a shut-off valve is arranged on the inlet and outlet connections of the filter. These shut-off elements are first closed to change the filter; then the filter connections are unscrewed, a new filter is installed.
- the mixing container represents the core of the device according to the invention; it has a water inlet and a water outlet connection and a nozzle for introducing C0 2 .
- check valves can be installed in each case.
- the mixing container must be designed in such a way that there is always sufficient pressure within it to be able to use C0 2 promote displaced water up to the tap or tap.
- the nozzle for introducing C0 2 should be designed in such a way that it prevents the formation of a larger C0 2 bubble within the mixing container.
- the water inlet connection or the filter or the cooling device is usually located below the tap, it is advantageous to let the inlet enter the same on the underside of the mixing container housing; for the same reason the removal connection should emerge from the housing at its top.
- the outer connection for the nozzle can be arranged largely as desired, since a flexible plastic hose is usually used anyway as the feed line.
- the container is made of a pressure and corrosion-resistant material, in particular of stainless steel.
- a pressure and corrosion-resistant material in particular of stainless steel.
