Description

DETERGENT FOR HAND WASHING OF DISHES AND DISHES ENTIRELY MADE WITH SEA WATER AND BIODEGRADABLE SURFACTANTS, COMPLETE WITH PROCEDURE FOR ITS REALIZATION,

Part one, the description:

a) The invention we describe is the result of many years of experimentation on innovative and useful formulations, able to improve the quality of detergents for washing dishes and dishes, reduce the formulation costs and at the same time decrease the environmental pollution that normally the surfactants inserted in large quantities in these type formulations cause, arriving through the urban discharges into the sea. While respecting the regulations that provide for a biodegradability greater than 90%, (by biodegradability we mean the capacity that marine waters have to biodegrade the surfactants into compounds that are not putritable for marine algae, thus avoiding the proliferation of the latter which alter the ™ marine ecosystem and slowly extinguish some species of fish) since the purifiers are often absent or malfunctioning, these surfactants are poured into the sea in large quantities, however, causing considerable pollution and limiting bathing. Our detergent made entirely with sea water significantly reduces the amount of surfactants in the formulation. All the water foreseen inside the formulation is taken from the sea, in uncontaminated areas under analytical control of the Arpacal company (Department of Reggio Calabria) which indicates the points where to carry out the sampling.

The formula thus created is enriched by a considerable number of salts which give the finished product a high degreasing action.

In fact, the following salts are present in the sea;

Sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, lime sulfate, potassium bromide, potassium iodide, potassium sulfate.

This natural blend, combined with a modest quantity of suitable surfactants, creates a balanced and synergistic blend with a high degreasing action that acts more effectively using reduced quantities of product compared to traditional detergents. Just think how in a short time the sea eliminates by itself the enormous quantity of discharges of all kinds that pour into it, protecting itself thanks to its balanced mixture of salts of which it is composed. Furthermore, the life of the detergent thus formulated resists for several years longer than the normal detergents used with industrial fresh water.

The detergent made with sea water must not contain crystallizers (sodium chloride) or thickeners of any kind, as sea water alone creates the necessary thickening to obtain the characteristic density of this type of product.

So you get a series of results:

1) Reduced consumption of drinking water as the sea water is taken which then returns to the sea.

2) The consumption of sodium chloride is avoided, as it is already present in marine waters,

3) Lower consumption of detergent as the formula made with sea water is more effective than other similar products formulated with traditional techniques.

4) Consequence of pollution as less detergent is used to wash dishes and dishes by hand which is carried out without adding additives to increase the degreasing and thickening power which reduce biodegradability.

5) The use of sea water rich in salts helps to sanitize the exhaust pipes during its run to the sea.

6) Furthermore, since the surfactants are already mixed in formula with sea water, during the journey back to the sea they begin to biodegrade and therefore, when they pour into the sea, they produce less pollution.

7) The solvent represents the novelty of this patent as sea water has never been used as a raw material. Sea water with its washing power constituted by the salts of which it is composed; sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, lime sulfate, potassium bromide, potassium iodide, and potassium sulphate, combined in formulation with the indicated surfactants, creates a powerful detergent capable of carrying out the washing dishes and crockery using reduced quantities of product and consequently causing less pollution for the sea the water taken from the sea after having carried out the washing cycles, through the drains, returns to the sea.

b) the pre-existing technique:

The pre-existing technique realizes the formulations of detergents for hand washing of dishes and crockery using industrial fresh water, drinking water and demineralized water. These waters commonly called solvent are strongly additives of anionic, non-ionic and amphoteric surfactants, called solute. They perform the function of lowering the surface tension of the water for washing dishes and dishes, favoring the removal of dirt. Furthermore, to allow the creation of an effective formulation with a high degreasing action on the grease of dishes and dishes, additives are added to increase the foaming effect and washing power. The final density of the detergent is obtained by adding strong concentrations of crystallizer (sodium chloride), coming from marine salt. The final product obtained, even though it falls within the biodegradability limits imposed by the laws in force, is much more damaging to marine waters as previously stated. So ultimately the use of our product compared to traditional products would allow a strong saving of raw materials (fresh water, surfactants, sea salt, additives, demineralized water), and a lower pollution index of the sea and the entire ecosystem. marine. It would make ecological one of the most used detergents in the world responsible for the pollution of seas and rivers,

c) The Technical Problem:

The technical problem consists in having created with the invention of the detergent for hand washing of dishes and dishes with sea water a highly ecological formula able to create a pollution lower than traditional detergents and at the same time perform the specific washing function with surprising results. Yes, therefore, they use less surfactants and there is the total absence of various additives, replaced by the cleaning power of sea water. drinking water and sea salt which is already present in any case, acquisition of other salts which provide a high natural degreasing contribution. The final product obtained is effective against the grease of dishes and crockery and with a considerably reduced environmental impact. Small quantities of product, therefore lower than the quantity of traditional detergents, are enough to obtain an excellent washing, thanks to the natural contribution of sea salts present in sea water, d) The Invention:

The invention is not related by drawings;

it is a creamy detergent packaged in bottles, tanks and cisterns of various sizes, and labeled with the words â € Astril hand washing detergent for dishes and crockery entirely made with sea water and biodegradable, â €

The invention, for a typical production of Lt 10,000, is implemented as follows:

Phase A, withdrawal of water from the seabed;

accurate seabed analyzes are carried out by the Arpacal company which provides us with information on where to take the sample, the distance from the shore and the depth; this is to ensure the withdrawal of uncontaminated and high purity water.

A truck of proportional dimensions to the quantity of water to be withdrawn is positioned on the indicated point. A particular submersible pump connected to a 1â € spiraled plastic tube and powered by a motor vehicle power generator is, with the help of a boat.

positioned at the distance and depth established by the analytical surveys carried out.

The water sucked from the sea is stored in 1000 L tanks placed on the vehicle. It is possible to withdraw the quantity of water necessary for the single reaction or a higher quantity to be kept as storage for subsequent productions. Once this procedure, called refueling, is completed, the full tanks are transported to the factory to start production.
