Problems solved by technology
Virtually anyone who routinely drinks wine notices that if a bottle of wine is uncorked and not completely consumed, the wine contained within the bottle changes in its physical and chemical characteristics making the wine much less enjoyable to consume as time passes.
Oxidation of wine results in the production of brown compounds and browning of red pigments with loss of color.
Sulfur dioxide added to red wine loosely binds to red wine pigments decolorizing the pigment molecules and rendering a portion of the sulfur dioxide ineffective.
Such mixing makes it very difficult to remove all of the oxygen atoms from the bottle without apply tremendous amounts of inert gas.
Even at small percentages of oxygen there are huge numbers of oxygen atoms which cause the wine to oxidize and degrade.

Embodiment Construction
[0029]Embodiments of a preservation apparatus are disclosed herein that aid in the preservation of wine and other perishable substances in vessels which have been opened previously and does so conveniently. Embodiments of the invention can be used on many other substances besides wine, including, but not limited to, other alcoholic beverages, cooking oils, liquids, foods, beer, spirits, and liquids in many phases of the alcoholic beverage production process.
[0030]The closure devices disclosed herein may be applicable to any container (e.g., wine bottle, food container, etc.) and can greatly suppress or eliminate the degradation (e.g., oxidation) of the item (e.g., wine) contained therein. Furthermore, the closure devices described herein has the ability to be reused many times. Such a feature significantly increases the performance and economics of the closure device.
[0031]In one embodiment, removable closure device is sized to fit within the neck of an opened wine bottle or contain...

Abstract
A preservation apparatus and method for using the same are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the preservation apparatus comprises a removable closure adapted to fit together in a sealed relationship with a vessel for containing an item, the removable closure comprising a top portion having a first opening to enable pressure within the vessel to be transferred to an interior of the top portion; and a container operable to contain a substance operable to collect oxygen molecules contained within the vessel and render them harmless to the item, wherein the container comprises a lid with a second opening located in proximity to the first opening and having a vent through which the pressure from the vessel is transferred to the interior of the top portion.
