Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for producing activated liquid with micro gas bubbles are not efficient enough for wide-ranging applications such as water purification, sterilization, and storage of gases, and lack effectiveness in extinguishing harmful bubbles and preserving food freshness.
Innovation Solution
The method involves using far infrared radiation and a repulsive magnetic field generated by permanent magnet assemblies to produce activated liquid with micro bubbles less than 10 micrometers in diameter, which is then pumped out and can be used in various forms like droplets or mist, enhancing the production efficiency and applicability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If conventional methods are used to produce activated liquid with gas bubbles, then the production process is simple, but the production efficiency is low and the bubble diameter is not small enough
Solution Approach 1:
The production process is divided into multiple functional sections: a first processing section that generates microbubbles using ultrasonic vibration, and a second processing section that activates the liquid using electromagnetic fields. This segmentation allows each section to specialize in one function, achieving high production efficiency of microbubble-activated liquid while keeping each individual section relatively simple in structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines two distinct processing functions (microbubble generation and liquid activation) into a single integrated production system. The microbubble generation unit and activation unit are merged in sequence, allowing the output of one to directly feed the other, thereby achieving efficient production of activated liquid containing microbubbles without requiring separate complex systems.
2Area of stationary object
If conventional mixing methods are used, then the equipment is simple, but the contact area between gas bubbles and liquid is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs ultrasonic vibration to generate microbubbles in the liquid. The high-frequency mechanical vibration creates numerous tiny bubbles with extremely small diameters, which dramatically increases the total surface area and contact area between gas and liquid phases, thereby enhancing mass transfer and reaction efficiency without requiring complex mixing equipment.
3Reliability
If activated liquid is produced without micro bubbles, then the production process is simpler, but the sterilization and purification capabilities are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies electromagnetic field activation to the liquid containing microbubbles, which fundamentally changes the physical and chemical parameters of the liquid. This activation process enhances the liquid's sterilization and purification capabilities through parameter changes such as increased reactivity and altered molecular structure, while the microbubble generation process ensures high production efficiency of the activated liquid product.
4Quantity of substance
If large bubbles are used, then the gas storage capacity is lower, but the equipment for generating bubbles is simpler
Solution Approach 1:
The ultrasonic vibration mechanism generates a large number of microbubbles with diameters in the micrometer range. Although individual microbubbles are small, the sheer number of bubbles produced dramatically increases the total gas storage capacity of the liquid. The ultrasonic generator is a relatively simple device that efficiently produces these microbubbles without requiring complex equipment.

AI summary
This invention offers effective and efficient method to produce and to use LIQUID defined as activated liquid which contains sufficient amount of micro bubbles of diameter less than 10 micrometers. LIQUID exhibits very useful properties for the purification of liquid, sterilization, extinguishment of undesirable bubbles, preservation of freshness of food, storage of gas in liquid, the decomposition of pollutants etc. The method to produce LIQUID comprises a means to rotate a rotor installed in a fixed tube wherein the rotor and the fixed tube are provided with a set of permanent magnets and a set of linear protuberances, and liquid and gas are introduced in the gap formed between the fixed tube and the rotor by pumping means driven by the motor. The micro bubbles are effectively produced with the repulsive magnetic field generated by the S (or N) pole of at least 30% of the whole magnets faced with the said gap. An annular activator made from far infrared emitting materials is assembled in the path of liquid in order to increase the efficiency for producing LIQUID.
