Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current water compositions for human and animal consumption often have unpredictable bioavailability due to complex interactions between water molecules and non-water substances, limiting their effectiveness in hydration and nutritional delivery.
Innovation Solution
The development of an aqueous medium with reduced-size water cluster populations, achieved by adding a non-aqueous substance to ultrapure water and processing it through a specific nozzle with jet openings inside a hollow cylinder, which reduces water cluster sizes to enhance bioavailability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional water compositions are used for consumption, then hydration and nutritional delivery are provided, but bioavailability is unpredictable due to complex interactions between water molecules and non-water substances
Solution Approach 1:
The water structure is segmented into discrete clusters of controlled size (e.g., 2-10 nanometers) rather than allowing random complex interactions. This segmentation is achieved through the nozzle processing step which breaks down large water clusters into smaller, more uniform clusters, thereby reducing molecular complexity and improving predictability of bioavailability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the physical parameter of water cluster size from its natural state to a controlled range (2-10 nanometers). This parameter change is achieved through the specific nozzle design and processing conditions, which transform the water structure to have reduced and controlled cluster sizes, thereby improving bioavailability while maintaining stability
2Reliability
If water cluster sizes are reduced to improve bioavailability, then cellular permeation and nutritional uptake are enhanced, but the process requires specific nozzle processing equipment and controlled conditions
Solution Approach 1:
The nozzle is designed with specific porous or jet opening structures that physically constrain and control the water cluster size during processing. The porous structure of the nozzle material or its internal geometry acts as a template that breaks down large water clusters into smaller clusters as water passes through, achieving the desired cluster size reduction without requiring additional processing equipment
Solution Approach 2:
The water itself performs the clustering reduction function by passing through the nozzle structure. The kinetic energy and flow dynamics of the water through the nozzle openings automatically break down the clusters to the desired size range, eliminating the need for external energy input or complex control systems. The process uses the water's own properties to achieve the structural transformation
