DETAILED DESCRIPTTON OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to methods of fabricating a shell solution by extracting a mineral component of the shells, which is beneficial for the human body, by dissolving the shells into acetic acid in which citric acid is contained.
That is, it is possible to obtain a shell solution in which the mineral component, which is beneficial for the human body, is contained at 1.5 weight-percent by dissolving the shells in acetic acid in which citric acid- is contained at 1-3 weightpercent. The mineral components contained in the shells include Na(Natrium), K(Potassium), Ca(Calcium), Fe(Iron), P(Phosphorus), Mg(Magnesium), and the like.
In accordance with a further embodiment of the invention, a shell solution is fabricated in which a chitosan acid is contained. The chitosan acid is dissolved into the acetic acid by 5-10 weight-percent. The weight percent of the shell solution and the chitosan acid solution can be selected within a range of 1:99 through 99:1.
The present invention is directed to a method of fabricating a shell solution by dissolving -ground shells into acetic acid until the pH of the acetic acid containing citric acid at 1-3 weight percent reaches 6.8 S. In addition, the present invention is directed to dissolving ground shells into acetic acid, and mixing a chitosan solution into the solution until the pH of the acetic acid containing citric acid by 1-3 weight percent reaches 6.8 The shell solution of the present invention is used as a food cooking liquid, as cooking spices, as a soil conditioning liquid, as a conditioning liquid at various farms, and for other practical purposes. The acetic acid is used because it is safe as a food. As the acetic acid, artificially-made acetic acid or chemically-made acetic acid may be used.
The citric acid contained in the shell solution serves to expedite solution operation of carbonic calcium of the shells.
When the citric acid is absorbed in the human body it also serves to increase absorption of calcium into the body, thereby making it preferable for the shell solution.
The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in more detail.
First Embodimet In order to fabricate a shell solution according to the present invention, oyster shells are substantially cleaned using fresh water, dried, and ground to a powder. Thereafter, 2 kg of the shell powder is added to 20 1 of the artificially-made acetic acid containing two weight percent of citric acid in a polyamide container, and then stirred using an electrical stirrer having a magnetic bar for about 12 to about 48 hours at a speed of about 150 to about 250 rpm. After stirring, the mixed materials are filtered using a Buchner funnel and a vacuum filter flask connected to an aspirator, thus obtaining the shell solution of the present invention. The remaining shell powder after fabricating the shell solution can be used again. If after 12-48 hours the pH of the 4 shell solution is still below 6.8B-7. 0, the shell solution is not dissolved up to the saturated state. in this case, the dissolution of the shell solution is preferably be repeated until the pH reaches 6. 8-7. 0.
The mineral components provided in the resulting shell solution, which are useful in the human body, are as follows: Components Amouznt contained Calcium 1.629/1009 Natium ai. 4mg/lbag .0 Kallum 1.m/10 Magneflium 9. 78mg/lbOg Phosphorous 9.2mq/bog9 Iran 0.34mg/bOOg Copper 0.O6ppm zinc 0.66ppm Manganese 1. 1Sppm Second Embodizent The shell solution which is fabricated in accordance with 0 the f irst embodiment of the present invention is diluted by 50-200 times, and when it is used as f ood conditioner, it is possible to get 600mg of calcium for one person from about 40g of shell solution.
That is, the shell solution obtained by the second ermbodiment of the present invention can be used as food conditioner for rice, rice cake, noodles, bean-curd, soy-soaked food, saltsoaked fish, grilled fish, jam, soft drinks, food conditioners (such as soy bean paste, soy, spices and condiments, mayonnaise, the like), material for fried food, seasoned soy bean paste, and any other appropriate foods.
In a polyamide container, 20 1 of the artificially-made acetic acid and 1kg of chitosan acid are well mixed. After 48 hours in the container with a lid, a gel-type solution is obtained.
