ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a composition of matter and the method of making improved acidic compositions that are useful for the treatment of killing bacteria or other potentially toxic cells, including disease cells, and specifically to an improved composition of matter and the method of making that can be used as a bactericide, fungicide, viricides, and for the treatment of skin diseases.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of acids and acidic chemicals for killing deleterious organic organisms, such as bacteria, germs, and viruses is well known in the art. Chlorine or hydrochloric acid is especially useful as a bactericide and is used universally as a cleaning agent.
Bacteria plays an important role in the deterioration of human foodstuffs. Foods such as fish are particularly susceptible to rapid deterioration, especially at room temperature, and compounds for the preservation of foods or the retardation of bacteria growth have been employed in the past. One of the problems with such compounds is that in certain increased levels, they can be toxic to human beings, thereby defeating the purpose of preserving the foodstuffs.
Because of the extremely acidic nature of some of the bactericides and viricides that have been utilized in the past, oftentimes they can cause skin irritation or other side effects for human beings coming in contact with these compositions, or can even be fatal if accidentally consumed. Chlorine has had other negative implications in terms of the environment, and has not been environmentally friendly because of the release of chlorine gas into the environment.
The present invention provides for a composition of matter and the method of making it that produces a composition that operates in a very low pH range to provide toxicity to bacteria, virus, and certain malignant cells that attack human skin determatologically, while at the same time proving to be non-toxic to human beings and not harmful to healthy human cells.
The use of the invention has been found to be helpful as a bactericide for preserving fresh food items, such as fish, for long periods of time without toxically endangering the food product, and has also been found useful as a dermatological composition to reduce or eliminate melanoma of the skin as a skin care product.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A composition of matter formed by the following described method has been found to be an effective bactericide, fungicide, viricide, and low pH acid that is non-toxic to healthy human cells.
The first basic ingredient used is sulfuric acid, preferably of around 98 percent purity. The sulfuric acid is placed in a container at a predetermined quantity. The next step is to place distilled water in a separate container and heat said water to 140° F., at which time 2.77 lbs. per gallon of 21 percent active ammonium sulfate is added to the water using a 316L stainless tube to inject air to dissolve the ammonium sulfate in the H
2
O.
The mixture of sulfuric acid, distilled water, and ammonium sulfate are themselves injected simultaneously at the predetermined ratio into a pressure vessel, preferably made of stainless steel, the volume of which is significantly larger than the total amount of composition to be obtained. The overall mixture is sprayed by nozzles into the pressure vessel, which is maintained at 15 psi above atmospheric pressure. At approximately the 1 ft. of liquid level, a plurality of electrodes are disposed to contact the liquid as it fills the pressure vessel, with a predetermined amount of DC current (amperage) provided. The positive and negative electrodes are spaced approximately 3 ft. apart. A DC voltage and current of at least one amp is provided. High pressure air is also forced into the liquid from radially disposed radial pipes to cause the overall mixture to rotate vigorously within the pressure vessel.
The pressure vessel will also include a cooling jacket. The temperature of the mixture is heated not to exceed 1200° F. and kept at this temperature for 3 to 4 hours. The pressure vessel permits for release of gas, which is believed to be hydrogen gas, coming off the mixture.
The mixture is then cooled down to room temperature, at which time a stabilizer, which is 10 percent of the total weight of the original mixture, is introduced into the cool-down mixture. The overall composition of the matter is then ready for use, either as a fresh food preservative, or can be implemented with various skin creams that are carriers for use in dermatology for reducing or eliminating melanoma on human skin.
For use as a food preservative, the composition of the matter is coated over items such as fresh fish, with the composition acting as a bacteria retardant.
The pressure vessel may be made of stainless steel, as are the electrodes used therein.
In an alternate embodiment, the ammonium sulfate mixture may be replaced by a 46 percent urea substitute, with the methodology being the same as for the ammonium sulfate composition.
The composition arrived at may be diluted down further, depending on the particular use, with additional distilled water, much like a typical acid. Applicant has found that although the pH is low (below 2), the composition is not deleterious or toxic to health human cells, and does not cause irritation to humans when coming in contact with the material.
It is an object of this invention to provide an improved composition of matter that has desirable acidic (low pH) characteristics that are not harmful or deleterious to organic human cells to destroy microorganisms or in the treatment of skin diseases.
It is another object of this invention to provide an improved composition of matter and the method of making it to create a widely usable composition for bactericide, fungicide, and complete elimination and destruction of microorganisms that are toxic to human health.
But yet still another object of this invention is to create a composition of matter that has numerous applications in areas of bactericide, viricide, food preservation, and dermatological treatment of human skin cells to eliminate or reduce diseases of the skin.
In accordance with these and other objects which will become apparent hereinafter, the instant invention will now be described with particular reference to the accompanying drawings.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The composition of matter forms a highly effective composition to kill or retard the growth of microorganisms, especially such as bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.
The first basic ingredient used is sulfuric acid, preferably of around 98 percent purity. The sulfuric acid is placed in a container at a predetermined quantity. The next step is to place distilled water in a separate container and heat said water to 140° F., at which time 2.77 lbs. per gallon of 21 percent active ammonium sulfate is added to the water using a 316L stainless tube to inject air to dissolve the ammonium sulfate in the H

The resultant ammonium sulfate, water, and sulfuric acid mixtures themselves are injected simultaneously at the same ratio into a large, stainless steel pressure vessel that is maintained at a pressure of at least 15 psi above atmospheric pressure. The mixture is forced into the pressure vessel, which itself has positive and negative electrodes for passing a DC current through the mixture as it is filled into the pressure vessel. At least one amp of DC current is maintained approximately 1 ft. above the base of the pressure vessel.
Sparges include spray head nozzle-like sprayers used to force the mixture in a sprayed-in form into the pressure vessel.
The temperature of the mixture is raised to approximately 1200° F., and is maintained for 3 to 4 hours. A cooling jacket is required to keep the temperature below 1200° F. During this process, excess gas is removed, which is believed to be hydrogen gas. A separate gas distributor is mounted within the liquid in the form of perpendicular sprayers that take air and inject it into the mixture during the heating process, which ca
