Description

  The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for producing active hydrogen-dissolved water, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for producing active hydrogen-dissolved water that can easily produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at low cost.

  In recent years, active hydrogen-dissolved water containing more active hydrogen (H; atomic hydrogen) than ordinary drinking water has a high effect on promoting human health by eliminating active oxygen formed in the human body. Has been attracting attention. For the same reason, it is considered that this active hydrogen-dissolved water is also beneficial for livestock such as cattle, pigs and chickens, or life forms such as fish and plants.

As a method for artificially generating this active hydrogen-dissolved water, a method of electrolyzing water to produce electrolytic reduced water is well known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, the apparatus used for the method utilizing electrolysis requires an electrolytic cell, a power source, various water distribution pipes, etc., and the structure becomes complicated. For this reason, this active hydrogen-dissolved water generating device is currently expensive as a medical device. Therefore, in order to supply the active hydrogen-dissolved water to the consumer easily and inexpensively, a method for generating active hydrogen-dissolved water that is extremely simple compared to the electrolysis has been proposed. In this method, drinking water and metal magnesium (grains) are reacted to generate hydrogen gas, and the drinking water is changed to hydrogen-rich water containing abundant hydrogen (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
JP-A-9-77672 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-04949

  By the way, in the livestock industry for cattle, pigs, chickens, etc., when the above active hydrogen-dissolved water is used for the drinking water of these animals, the amount of use is enormous compared to the case of human use. Therefore, it is essential to produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at a low cost. This is exactly the same even when active hydrogen-dissolved water is used in the agricultural and fisheries industry for fish or plants.

  However, when a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water is produced by electrolysis of the water, the production apparatus becomes extremely expensive due to the above-mentioned. Moreover, the active hydrogen dissolved water produced | generated with this apparatus has the very short period which can be preserve | saved. Usually, the effectiveness of the active hydrogen-dissolved water disappears in about 2 to 3 hours (however, the time for the remaining active hydrogen amount to be reduced to 0.005 ppm). This is because the amount of active hydrogen in the active hydrogen dissolved water generated by electrolysis of water decreases exponentially with its storage time. For this reason, it becomes difficult to produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at a time using the dedicated production device and store it at a low cost.

  On the other hand, the method disclosed in Patent Document 2 using the reaction between the metal magnesium and water utilizes a chemical reaction represented by the following formula.

However, in the chemical reaction, water-insoluble magnesium hydroxide (Mg (OH) ₂ ) is formed on the surface of the metal magnesium particles. Since the formation of the magnesium hydroxide film suppresses the chemical reaction between the metal magnesium particle surface and water, the generation of active hydrogen is greatly reduced with time. For this reason, after use for a predetermined period of time, the work of periodically dissolving and removing the magnesium hydroxide film formed on the surface of the metal magnesium particles with, for example, edible vinegar becomes essential. Further, when removing the magnesium hydroxide film, the surface of the metal magnesium particles is also dissolved and removed by etching, so that the metal magnesium particles are wasted. For these reasons, even with the method disclosed in Patent Document 2, it is difficult to produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at a low cost.

  As described above, the conventional method for artificially producing active hydrogen-dissolved water is difficult to produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at a low cost and easily, for example, it is extremely difficult to use active hydrogen-dissolved water in the agricultural, aquatic and livestock industries. Met.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can produce a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water at a low cost and easily, and can also be suitably used in the field of agricultural, aquatic and livestock industries. It is a main object to provide a generation method and a generation apparatus.

The present inventor has investigated in detail the effect of hydrated ions composed of alkaline earth metals such as calcium and magnesium, which are mineral components in water, on the production of active hydrogen. It was also found for the first time that the hydrated ion effectively increases the active hydrogen concentration. Further, it has been found that the formation of a magnesium hydroxide film on the surface of the metal magnesium is greatly suppressed by adding sulfate ions caused by calcium sulfate (gypsum) or magnesium sulfate to water. The invention based on these findings has previously been applied for a patent (Japanese Patent Application No. 2005-077851).
The present invention has been made by newly confirming that a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water can be produced at a low cost and can be suitably applied, for example, in the field of agricultural, aquatic and livestock industries.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the method for producing active hydrogen-dissolved water according to the first invention, gypsum and magnesium metal or a mixture of gypsum and magnesium metal is added to water to produce water containing active hydrogen. Later, the water containing the active hydrogen is diluted.

  In the method for producing active hydrogen-dissolved water according to the second invention, gypsum and magnesium metal or a mixture of gypsum and magnesium metal is disposed in the lower part of the container, water is supplied from the upper part of the container, and the water The active hydrogen-dissolved water produced by the gypsum and magnesium metal or the water and the mixture is taken from the lower part of the container. Further, the active hydrogen-dissolved water taken from the lower part of the container is diluted.

  And the active hydrogen dissolved water production | generation apparatus concerning 3rd invention is the container which puts water, a gypsum and magnesium metal or a mixture of gypsum and magnesium metal, the water supply part arrange | positioned at the upper part of the said container, And a water intake portion for taking active hydrogen-dissolved water from the lower part of the container. The water is supplied from a supply portion and the gypsum and magnesium metal or the active hydrogen-dissolved water produced by the water and the mixture is provided. ing. Furthermore, it has a dilution part which communicates with the intake part of the active hydrogen dissolved water and dilutes the active hydrogen dissolved water with normal water.

  According to the present invention, a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water can be produced inexpensively and easily, and can be suitably used in the field of agricultural, aquatic and livestock industries.

Several preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Here, the same or similar parts are denoted by common reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing an example of a device for generating active hydrogen dissolved water according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, in the active hydrogen-dissolved water generating apparatus 10, gypsum 12 and magnesium metal 13 are arranged at the bottom of a stainless steel container 11, for example. Water 14 can be supplied into the container 11 from above the gypsum 12 and the magnesium metal 13.

  Here, a water supply pipe 15 for supplying water 14 to the container 11 communicates with the upper part of the container 11, and water is supplied to the tip of the water supply pipe 15 so that the amount of water in the container 11 is maintained within a predetermined range. A ball tap 16 for turning on / off the supply of 14 is attached. Then, for example, tap water is filtered through the activated carbon filter 17 and supplied to the container 11 by a certain amount using the water supply pipe 15 as a flow channel, so that the gypsum 12 and the magnesium metal 13 are always immersed in the water 14. In addition, the on-off valve 18 is provided in the middle of the flowing water channel.

  The activated carbon filter 17 is mainly for removing chlorine contained in tap water, and the activated carbon filter 17 does not necessarily have to be attached when groundwater is used. The on-off valve 18 is always open when the generation apparatus 10 is in operation, and is closed when maintenance work or an abnormality occurs in the generation apparatus 10.

As will be described in detail later, in this generating device 10, the gypsum 12 placed on the bottom of the container 11 dissolves in water 14 as calcium hydrate ions and sulfate ions, and at least in the lower part of the container 11, the dissolved amount is It becomes a saturated state or a high concentration state close to saturation. For example, when the gypsum 12 is dihydrate gypsum and the temperature of the water 14 is about 20 ° C., the saturated dissolution amount of calcium sulfate (CaSO ₄ ) is about 14 × 10 ⁻³ mol (mol) / l (liter). Become. That is, it is about 1400 mg / l in terms of calcium carbonate, and the water hardness is about 1400. Active hydrogen-dissolved water in which a large amount of active hydrogen is dissolved in water containing high-concentration calcium sulfate is generated.

  Therefore, a required number (two in this embodiment) of intake pipes 19a and 19b are attached to the lower part of the container 11, and active hydrogen-dissolved water containing high-concentration calcium sulfate and active hydrogen is taken out from the lower part of the container 11. It has become. And each intake pipe 19a, 19b is connected to the diluters 21a, 21b via the flow control valves 20a, 20b.

  The diluters 21a and 21b communicate with the water supply pipe 22 so as to dilute a substantially constant amount of the active hydrogen-dissolved water taken in through the flow rate adjusting valves 20a and 20b from the water supply pipe 22 by about 10 times the amount of water. It has become. These diluters 21a and 21b are supplied to water cups 24a and 24b for livestock such as cows and chickens through water supply pipes 23a and 23b attached to the diluters 21a and 21b, respectively.

  Further, a drain pipe 26 is attached to a predetermined position below the container 11 via an opening / closing valve 25. The open / close valve 25 is always closed when the generator 10 is in operation, and is opened when the generator 10 is under maintenance or when an abnormality occurs, and drains the water 14 in the container 11.

  Next, in the production | generation apparatus 10 of the structure mentioned above, the production | generation mechanism is demonstrated with the production | generation method of active hydrogen dissolved water. As shown in FIG. 1, gypsum 12 and magnesium metal 13 are placed on the bottom of a container 11, and normal temperature water 14 such as tap water is supplied from a water supply pipe 15 constituting a water supply unit. 11 to about 1 ton. Here, the water 14 reacts with the magnesium metal 13, and active hydrogen is generated by the following formula (1).

At the same time, the surface portion of gypsum 12 which is calcium sulfate placed on the bottom of the container 11 dissolves and dissociates in water 14, and calcium hydrated ions (Ca (H ₂ O) _6.2 ) ²⁺ and sulfate ions (SO ₄ ²⁻ ) and become saturated particularly in the lower part of the container 11. Here, since the gypsum 12 is easily dissolved under room lighting (light irradiation), it is preferable that room lighting is performed from above the container 11. And when it becomes saturated, the dissolution stops. As described above, for example, when the gypsum 12 is dihydrate gypsum and the temperature of the water 14 is about 20 ° C., the saturated dissolution amount of calcium sulfate is about 14 mmol / l.

  Then, the dissolved and dissociated calcium hydrate ions increase the dissolved amount of active hydrogen generated in the formula (1) in the water 14 in the container 11. In this way, at least in the lower part of the container 11, high-concentration active hydrogen-dissolved water is generated.

  The effect of increasing the amount of active hydrogen dissolved by this gypsum will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 shows experimental results of investigating the effect of adding calcium hydrated ions by changing the amount of gypsum dissolved in water by putting gypsum and magnesium metal pieces into water. Here, the vertical axis represents the active hydrogen dissolved amount, and the horizontal axis represents the gypsum dissolved amount.

  FIG. 2 shows that when the amount of gypsum dissolved is, for example, 1.4 mmol / l or more, the amount of active hydrogen dissolved increases rapidly as the amount of gypsum dissolved increases. That is, when the amount of gypsum dissolved becomes a predetermined amount or more, the increment of the active hydrogen dissolved amount becomes larger than the increment of the gypsum dissolved amount. For example, when the amount of gypsum dissolved is 1.4 mmol / L, the amount of active hydrogen dissolved is about 0.06 mmol / l, whereas the amount of gypsum dissolved increases to 2.1 mmol / l, for example. The active hydrogen dissolved amount doubles to about 0.1 mmol / l. Furthermore, when the amount of gypsum dissolved increases to, for example, 2.8 mmol / l, the amount of active hydrogen dissolved further doubles to about 0.2 mmol / l.

  Thus, in the container 11 of the production | generation apparatus 10, since a very high concentration calcium hydrate ion exists in the lower part of the container 11, a high concentration active hydrogen dissolved water comes to be produced | generated.

The mechanism by which alkaline earth metal hydrate ions such as the calcium hydrate ions increase the amount of active hydrogen is still unclear. At present, the inventor has compared the lifetime of active hydrogen, which becomes hydrogen molecules (H ₂ ) and disappears in water in a very short time under normal conditions by combining with alkaline earth metal hydrate ions. I think that it will become a long hydrated ion conjugate, for example. Further, the proportion of the hydrated ion conjugate in the calcium hydrated ions dissociated in water increases as the amount of gypsum dissolved in the drinking water increases, resulting in the effects described above. I believe. It has also been confirmed that the increase in the amount of gypsum dissolved increases the storage time of active hydrogen in the active hydrogen-dissolved water.

  Next, the high-concentration gypsum is dissolved in the container 11 in this way, and the active hydrogen-dissolved water having a high concentration of active hydrogen is supplied from the intake pipes 19a and 19b attached to the lower part of the container 11 to the flow rate. It takes out to the diluters 21a and 21b through the adjusting valves 20a and 20b. Then, the extracted active hydrogen-dissolved water is diluted about 10 times with water supplied from the water supply pipe 22 to the diluters 21a and 21b.

  Here, if the amount of gypsum dissolved is about 14 mmol / l of the saturated amount of dissolution, it is diluted about 10 times in the diluters 21a and 21b, and the amount of gypsum dissolved is about 1.4 mmol / l. However, the active hydrogen-dissolved water having a dissolved amount of gypsum after dilution of 1.4 mmol / l is larger than the active hydrogen-dissolved amount 0.06 mmol / l described in FIG. 2 (for example, 0.1 mmol / l). 1), an effective amount of active hydrogen is dissolved. By increasing the amount of gypsum dissolved and increasing the proportion of the hydrated ion conjugate in the calcium hydrated ion as described above, the hydrated ion conjugate in the calcium hydrated ion even after dilution It is because the ratio which accounts for can be kept high.

  The diluted active hydrogen-dissolved water is supplied to, for example, water cups 24a and 24b in a barn via water supply pipes 23a and 23b.

  In this way, after a large amount of active hydrogen is dissolved in the water 14 in which gypsum is dissolved at a high concentration, the active hydrogen-dissolved water containing this high concentration of calcium sulfate is, for example, a hardness of 300 or less (for example, 140 based on tap water quality). Dilute up to a certain extent) and supply as drinking water for livestock such as cattle, pigs and chickens. When the gypsum 12 or the magnesium metal 13 in the container 11 is exhausted, the container 11 is newly replenished.

  In the present embodiment, for example, high-concentration active hydrogen-dissolved water of 1 ton is generated and diluted with a large amount of water, for example, a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water of 10 ton or more is generated easily and inexpensively as described above. can do. In this case, a large amount of active hydrogen can be dissolved in the active hydrogen-dissolved water after dilution as described above.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the sulfate ion which melt | dissolves and dissociates and produces | generates the said gypsum dissolves the magnesium hydroxide formed in the magnesium metal 13 surface by following (2) Formula.

  From this, in this embodiment, it becomes difficult to form magnesium hydroxide on the surface of the magnesium metal 13, and the sustainability of active hydrogen generation is greatly improved. Then, the operation of immersing the magnesium metal 13 in, for example, edible vinegar after use for a predetermined time and dissolving and removing the magnesium hydroxide, which has been indispensable in the prior art, is completely unnecessary.

  Next, an example of the effect of improving the sustainability of active hydrogen generation by dissolving the gypsum 12 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 shows the case of the prior art of Patent Document 2 in which magnesium metal pieces are immersed in tap water to generate active hydrogen-dissolved water, and the same effect is obtained by dissolving hemihydrate gypsum in tap water as in the above embodiment. It shows in comparison with the case of producing hydrogen-dissolved water. FIG. 3 shows an example of a change over time of dissolved hydrogen (total of hydrogen molecules and active hydrogen) in the active hydrogen-dissolved water. Here, the dissolved hydrogen was measured with a dissolved hydrogen meter KM2100DH manufactured by Kyoei Electronics Research Laboratory. The horizontal axis represents the number of days as the active hydrogen dissolved water use period, and the vertical axis represents the dissolved hydrogen amount.

  The solid line in FIG. 3 is an example in which hemihydrate gypsum is dissolved in tap water at 1.4 mmol / l and magnesium metal pieces are immersed therein. And a dotted line is an example of the prior art which immersed only the magnesium metal piece in tap water. In the case of the prior art, the decrease in the amount of dissolved hydrogen is remarkable within the use period of 10 days. This indicates that the growth of the magnesium hydroxide film is large in the above period, and the hydrogen generation by the above equation (1) is greatly reduced. However, after that, the decrease in the amount of dissolved hydrogen is gradual and decreases at a substantially constant rate.

  On the other hand, when gypsum is dissolved, the amount of dissolved hydrogen is high as a whole as compared with the case of the prior art, and the rate of decrease becomes small within the use period of 10 days. When the usage period is after 20 days, the rate of decrease in the amount of dissolved hydrogen becomes substantially the same as in the case of the prior art. However, the amount of dissolved hydrogen is almost the same as in the case of a 10-day use period in the prior art even when the use period is 30 days.

  Next, a modified example of the generation apparatus according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a schematic configuration diagram showing another example of the active hydrogen-dissolved water generating apparatus of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, in the active hydrogen-dissolved water generating device 10a, a required number (two in this embodiment) of cases 27a and 27b made of, for example, translucent plastic are arranged in a vessel 11 made of stainless steel, for example. It has come to be. The case 27 a contains gypsum 12 a and magnesium metal 13 a and is immersed in water 14. Similarly, the gypsum 12a and the magnesium metal 13a are accommodated in the case 27b and immersed in the water 14. And the water 14 can be supplied now from the upper part of the container 11 located above the cases 27a and 27b. Note that it is preferable that room irradiation is performed from above the container 11.

  Further, exhaust pipes 28 a and 28 b are respectively attached to the upper portions of the cases 27 a and 27 b and communicated with the common exhaust pipe 29. The common exhaust pipe 29 is provided with a hydrogen remover 30 in the middle thereof. The hydrogen remover 30 preferably has a structure in which hydrogen gas is burned and removed as water, but may have a structure in which, for example, it is collected in a solution containing hydrogen peroxide. .

In this production | generation apparatus 10a, the gypsum 12a accommodated in case 27a dissociates in the water 14 as calcium hydrate ion and sulfate ion as above-mentioned, and melt | dissolves in a saturated state. At the same time, the water 14 reacts with the magnesium metal 13a, and active hydrogen is generated according to the formula (1). A part of this active hydrogen is combined with, for example, calcium hydrated ions as described above, and active hydrogen-dissolved water containing a high concentration of active hydrogen is generated. Moreover, as shown in the formula (1), some active hydrogens are bonded to generate hydrogen molecules (H ₂ ).

  Here, the hydrogen molecules become hydrogen gas and are removed by the hydrogen remover 30 through the exhaust pipe 28a and the common exhaust pipe 29 provided on the upper portion of the case 27a. In addition, a part of hydrogen gas that is extremely small and is below the limit of explosion reaction with oxygen in the air is exhausted from the exhaust duct to the outside of the room.

  Similarly, hydrogen gas is generated from the gypsum 12b and the magnesium metal 13b stored in the case 27b together with active hydrogen-dissolved water containing high-concentration active hydrogen. Here, the hydrogen gas passes through the exhaust pipe 28b and the common exhaust pipe 29 provided on the upper portion of the case 27b, and is removed by the hydrogen remover 30.

  The active hydrogen-dissolved water containing the high-concentration active hydrogen diffuses out of the cases 27a and 27b from the holes 31a and 31b provided at the bottoms of the cases 27a and 27b and comes out to the bottom of the container 11.

  After that, the active hydrogen-dissolved water having a high concentration is diluted from the intake pipes 19a and 19b attached to the lower part of the container 11 through the flow rate adjusting valves 20a and 20b in exactly the same manner as described for the generating device 10. The active hydrogen-dissolved water thus taken out is diluted with the water from the water supply pipe 22 to about 10 times. The diluted active hydrogen-dissolved water is sent to the water cups 24a and 24b in the barn via the water supply pipes 23a and 23b.

  This generator 10a is extremely useful because it increases the safety when a large amount of hydrogen gas is generated according to equation (1).

  In the present embodiment, as described above, a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water is produced at a low cost and very easily. Therefore, the active hydrogen-dissolved water can be used as drinking water for livestock such as cattle, pigs and chickens. And since this active hydrogen dissolved water promotes the health of livestock and enables breeding of good quality livestock, it will be extremely beneficial for the livestock industry. It can also be used in the same way in raising fish and the like. Furthermore, it can also be used as human drinking water.

  In the above embodiment, as described above, active hydrogen is dissolved at a high concentration in water in which the amount of gypsum dissolved is high, and the active hydrogen-dissolved water dissolved at this high concentration is diluted, so that an effective amount of activity is obtained. A large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water containing hydrogen is produced. There are various specific methods for generating such active hydrogen-dissolved water other than those described based on the generation devices 10 and 10a.

  Moreover, in the production | generation apparatuses 10 and 10a of the active hydrogen dissolved water of the said embodiment, although the case where irradiation light like indoor illumination irradiates the container 11 is demonstrated, it is the structure where the inside of the container 11 is shielded. Also good. In this case, shielding light (especially purple light) reduces the dissolution rate of gypsum in water and reduces the amount of dissolution, but still a relatively high concentration of calcium sulfate dissolves in water 14 and compares with it. Thus, active hydrogen-dissolved water containing a high concentration of active hydrogen can be obtained.

  Further, instead of the gypsum 12 and the magnesium metal 13, a mixture of magnesium metal powder and gypsum formed by, for example, kneading may be placed in the container 11.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment demonstrates the case where the active hydrogen dissolved water used for plant cultivation is produced | generated.

  FIG. 5 is a schematic configuration diagram illustrating an example of the active hydrogen-dissolved water generating apparatus according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, in the active hydrogen dissolved water generating apparatus, gypsum 12 and magnesium metal 13 are arranged at the bottom of a stainless steel container 11, for example. Water 14 can be supplied into the container 11 from above the gypsum 12 and the magnesium metal 13. Here, a water supply pipe 15 for supplying water 14 to the container 11 communicates with the upper part of the container 11. Further, the container 11 may be disposed on the mounting table 32 in order to increase the overall water level of the water 14.

  And the water level meter 33 for detecting the water level of the water 14 in the container 11 is attached. Here, the water level gauge 33 has, for example, three monitoring terminals, and can detect, for example, the lower, middle, and upper water levels of the container 11.

  A water supply pipe 15 for supplying water 14 to the container 11 communicates with the upper part of the container 11, and a pump 34 draws, for example, river water 35 through the water supply pipe 15 and supplies it into the container 11. Here, the drive of the pump 34 is controlled by a water amount adjuster 36 that automatically adjusts the supply amount of the water 14 via the water level gauge 33 so that the amount of water in the container 11 is maintained within a predetermined range. It has become. The water amount adjuster 36 and the pump 34 are operated by a power source 37 made of, for example, a solar battery. An opening / closing valve 18 is provided in the water supply pipe 15 between the pump 34 and the container 11.

  In such a generation apparatus, as described in the first embodiment, the gypsum 12 placed on the bottom of the container 11 dissolves in the water 14 as calcium hydrate ions and sulfate ions, and at least the lower part of the container 11 Then, the dissolved amount becomes high concentration. At the same time, the water 14 reacts with the magnesium metal 13a, and active hydrogen is generated according to the above formula (1). Then, active hydrogen-dissolved water containing a high concentration of active hydrogen is generated by the action of calcium sulfate dissolved in a high concentration.

  Therefore, a water intake pipe 38 is attached to the lower part of the container 11, and active hydrogen-dissolved water containing active hydrogen is extracted from the lower part of the container 11 together with high-concentration calcium sulfate. The intake pipe 38 communicates with the water supply pipe 23 through the flow rate adjusting valve 39 and further with the water supply pipes 23a and 23b branched into the required number (two in this embodiment), and supplies water to, for example, agricultural crops such as rice and vegetables. It can be done.

  In the production apparatus of the second embodiment, the dilution of active hydrogen-dissolved water containing high-concentration active hydrogen by the diluter 21a (or 21b) as in the first embodiment is not particularly performed. Otherwise, the method for generating active hydrogen-dissolved water and its generation mechanism are the same as described in the first embodiment.

  Here, when active hydrogen-dissolved water is used for plant cultivation, even when high-concentration calcium sulfate is mixed in active hydrogen-dissolved water, it is less harmful than when it is used for drinking water for animals such as livestock. It will not be. For this reason, the diluter as described in the first embodiment is not necessary. In addition, when dilution becomes desirable, another water supply pipe for normal river water that is not active hydrogen dissolved water is provided, and this normal river water and active hydrogen dissolved water from the water supply pipes 23a and 23b are supplied simultaneously. What should I do?

  In the second embodiment, as described above, a large amount of active hydrogen-dissolved water is produced at a low cost and very easily. For this reason, the active hydrogen-dissolved water can be suitably used as water for cultivation of plants in the agricultural industry such as paddy rice or its seedlings and vegetables. Moreover, it can utilize similarly also in gardening cultivation. In the case of plant cultivation using this active hydrogen-dissolved water, active hydrogen-dissolved water reduces anaerobes such as methane bacteria and spoilage bacteria, and aerobic bacteria and aerobic small animals such as earthworms and ticks are grown. It is suitable for so-called organic cultivation.

  Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the above-described embodiments do not limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and changes in specific embodiments without departing from the technical idea and technical scope of the present invention.

  For example, as the gypsum, dihydrate gypsum or anhydrous gypsum may be used in addition to hemihydrate gypsum. Further, the shape of these gypsum or magnesium metal may have various external shapes such as a rectangle and a sphere.

  Further, instead of gypsum, solid magnesium sulfate may be used, and the dissolved and dissociated magnesium hydrated ions may be used. In this case, solid magnesium sulfate or a mixed solid of magnesium sulfate and magnesium metal powder is used.
