The purpose is to provide a water-containing water generator.

表2から分かるように、振動子31による印加振動の強度Iが8.56×1012[W/m2]以上である実施例1~8については、振動印加前は白濁していた生成水が振動印加後は透明になり、得られた生成水1ml中に、平均気泡径が100nm前後の含オゾン酸素微細気泡及び水素微細気泡が5.1×108個~8.6×108個存在していることが確認できた。振動印加前は含オゾン酸素気泡及び水素気泡の気泡径が大きいため生成水は白濁しているが、この生成水に強度Iが8.56×1012[W/m2]以上の振動を印加することによって含オゾン酸素気泡及び水素気泡の気泡径が100nm前後まで縮小し、これによって生成水が透明になったものと考えられる。

特に、振動子31による印加振動の強度Iが1.00×1013[W/m2]を下回っている実施例2、4、6、8については、白濁している生成水が完全に透明になるまで、振動の印加開始から30秒程度かかったが、振動子31による印加振動の強度Iが1.00×1013[W/m2]以上である実施例1、3、5、7については、振動印加直後に透明になっており、印加する振動の強度Iを1.00×1013[W/m2]以上にしておくと、平均気泡径が100nm前後の含オゾン酸素微細気泡及び水素微細気泡をより早く生成することができる。
In particular, in Examples 2, 4, 6 and 8 in which the intensity I of the vibration applied by the
これに対して、振動を印加しなかった比較例1や印加振動の強度Iが8.56×1012[W/m2]を下回っている比較例2~12については、得られた生成水が白濁したままであり、3μm以上の含オゾン酸素気泡及び水素気泡が多量に生成されているものと考えられる。このため、上記ナノ粒子解析システムではナノサイズの微細気泡の気泡径及び個数を測定することができなかった。 On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1 in which the vibration was not applied and Comparative Examples 2 to 12 in which the intensity I of the applied vibration was less than 8.56×10 12 [W/m 2 ], the generated water was obtained. Is still cloudy, and it is considered that a large amount of ozone-containing oxygen bubbles of 3 μm or more and hydrogen bubbles are generated. Therefore, the above-mentioned nanoparticle analysis system cannot measure the bubble size and the number of nano-sized fine bubbles.

含オゾン酸素発生後に振動を印加した実施例9~16及び比較例14~24については、振動を印加する前後の生成水の状態を、含オゾン酸素発生後に振動を印加していない比較例13については、電解素子21への電圧印加停止時点の生成水の状態をそれぞれ目視によって確認し、その状態を表4に示した。また、含オゾン酸素発生後に振動を印加した実施例9~16及び比較例14~24については、陽極側振動子31pによる振動の印加を停止した後15分間経過した時点で、含オゾン酸素発生後に振動を印加していない比較例13については、電解素子21への電圧印加停止後15分間経過した時点で、生成水に含まれる微細気泡の気泡径(モード径)及び個数をナノ粒子解析システム(マルバーン製 ナノサイト LM10)を用いて測定し、その結果を表4に示した。

As can be seen from Table 4, Examples 9 to 16 in which the intensity I of the vibration applied by the anode-
特に、陽極側振動子31pによる印加振動の強度Iが1.00×1013[W/m2]を下回っている実施例10、12、14、16については、白濁している生成水が完全に透明になるまで、振動の印加開始から30秒程度かかったが、陽極側振動子31pによる印加振動の強度Iが1.00×1013[W/m2]以上である実施例9、11、13、15については、振動印加直後に透明になっており、印加する振動の強度Iを1.00×1013[W/m2]以上にしておくと、平均気泡径が100nm前後の含オゾン酸素微細気泡をより早く生成することができる。

表32から分かるように、渦流化した流水に気泡を供給した実施例91~93については、得られた生成水が透明であり、生成水1ml中には、平均気泡径が100nm程度の水素微細気泡が7.3×105個~7.2×108個存在していることが確認できた。渦流化した流水に水素気泡を発生させることによって、発生した水素気泡の気泡径が100nm前後まで縮小し、これによって生成水が透明になったものと考えられる。 As can be seen from Table 32, in Examples 91 to 93 in which bubbles were supplied to the vortexed flowing water, the produced water obtained was transparent, and 1 ml of produced water contained hydrogen fine particles having an average bubble diameter of about 100 nm. It was confirmed that there were 7.3×10 5 to 7.2×10 8 bubbles. It is considered that by generating hydrogen bubbles in the swirling flowing water, the bubble diameter of the generated hydrogen bubbles was reduced to around 100 nm, and as a result, the produced water became transparent.
これに対して、渦流化せず、層流状態の流水に気泡を供給した比較例119については、得られた生成水が白濁しており、3μm以上の水素気泡が多量に生成されているものと考えられる。このため、上記ナノ粒子解析システムではナノサイズの微細気泡の気泡径及び個数を測定することができなかった。 On the other hand, in Comparative Example 119 in which air bubbles were supplied to the laminar flow water without being swirled, the produced water obtained was cloudy, and a large amount of hydrogen bubbles of 3 μm or more were produced. it is conceivable that. Therefore, the nanoparticle analysis system could not measure the diameter and number of nano-sized fine particles.

It was confirmed that there were 5.5×10 7 to 9.1×10 8 ozone oxygen fine bubbles. It is considered that by generating ozone-containing oxygen bubbles in the turbulent flowing water, the diameter of the generated ozone-containing oxygen bubbles was reduced to around 100 nm, and the resulting water became transparent.
これに対して、乱流化せず、層流状態の流水に気泡を供給した比較例120~122については、得られた生成水が白濁しており、3μm以上の含オゾン酸素気泡が多量に生成されているものと考えられる。このため、上記ナノ粒子解析システムではナノサイズの微細気泡の気泡径及び個数を測定することができなかった。 On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 120 to 122 in which bubbles were supplied to running water in a laminar flow state without turbulence, the obtained generated water became cloudy and a large amount of ozone-containing oxygen bubbles of 3 μm or more were contained. It is believed that it has been generated. Therefore, the nanoparticle analysis system could not measure the diameter and number of nano-sized fine particles.

It was confirmed that there were 2.3 × 10 7 to 5.4 × 10 8 fine bubbles. It is considered that by generating oxygen bubbles in the turbulent running water, the diameter of the generated oxygen bubbles was reduced to around 100 nm, and the generated water became transparent.
これに対して、乱流化せず、層流状態の流水に気泡を供給した比較例123~125については、得られた生成水が白濁しており、3μm以上の酸素気泡が多量に生成されているものと考えられる。このため、上記ナノ粒子解析システムではナノサイズの微細気泡の気泡径及び個数を測定することができなかった。 On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 123 to 125 in which bubbles were supplied to the laminar flowing water without turbulence, the obtained generated water became cloudy and a large amount of oxygen bubbles of 3 μm or more were generated. It is thought that it is. Therefore, the nanoparticle analysis system could not measure the diameter and number of nano-sized fine particles.

With respect to Examples 100 to 102 and Comparative Examples 126 to 128, the bubble diameter (mode diameter) of fine bubbles contained in the stored water (generated water) in the
表38から分かるように、乱流化した流水に気泡を供給した実施例100~102については、得られた生成水が透明であり、生成水1ml中には、平均気泡径が100nm程度の水素微細気泡が6.1×107個~8.8×108個存在していることが確認できた。乱流化した流水に水素気泡を発生させることによって、発生した水素気泡の気泡径が100nm前後まで縮小し、これによって生成水が透明になったものと考えられる。 As can be seen from Table 38, in Examples 100 to 102 in which bubbles were supplied to the turbulent flowing water, the produced water obtained was transparent, and 1 ml of produced water contained hydrogen having an average bubble diameter of about 100 nm. fine bubbles was confirmed to be present eight 6.1 × 10 7 cells ~ 8.8 × 10. It is considered that by generating hydrogen bubbles in the turbulent flowing water, the bubble diameter of the generated hydrogen bubbles was reduced to about 100 nm, and as a result, the produced water became transparent.
これに対して、乱流化せず、層流状態の流水に気泡を供給した比較例126~128については、得られた生成水が白濁しており、3μm以上の水素気泡が多量に生成されているものと考えられる。このため、上記ナノ粒子解析システムではナノサイズの微細気泡の気泡径及び個数を測定することができなかった。 On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 126 to 128 in which bubbles were supplied to the laminar flowing water without turbulence, the obtained generated water became cloudy and a large amount of hydrogen bubbles of 3 μm or more were generated. It is thought that it is. Therefore, the nanoparticle analysis system could not measure the diameter and number of nano-sized fine particles.
