SUMMARY OF INVENTION

Formulation with Fumigating Substances:

In order to get an idea of the various chemical changes that take place during the heat, it is essential to.know the various substances used in this formulation. These can be broadly classified into two types: odoriferous and medicinal herbs.

Vaporization of Odorous Substances:

The temperature attained by the heating plate volatile constituents vaporize and their gaseous forms get diffused; Also, when cellulose and other carbohydrates undergo combustion, steam is formed in copious quantities by the combination of the Hydrogen of the decomposed organic molecules with the oxygen. This is how the substances like thymol, eugenol, pinene, terpinol etc., are dispersed to in the surroundings and the aroma of a formulation can be smelt at a considerable distance. In addition to sluum, smoke is emitted in large quantifies unci solid particles existing in a decomposed state offer sufficient scope for its diffusion. Thus smoke also Functions as a colloidal vehicle for the spreading of volatile aromatic substances. This process depends on the inside and surrounding temperature and on the direction of the wind.

Combustion of Fatty Substances:

The fatty substances used in formulation are mainly ghee and other fatty substances of vegetable origin. All fatty substances used are combinations of fatty acids, which volatilize easily^The combustion of glycerol portion gives acetone bodies, pyruvic aldehyde and glyoxal etc.

DESCRIPTION

PURIFUCATION OF ENVIRONMENT:-

The huge industrial complexes, rapid urbanization, deforestation, air and water pollution, ozone-depletion, radioactive wastes- etc., have disturbed and destabilized the natural harmony of human, animal and plant life cycles. The ecological imbalance caused by these criminal acts of the so called 'civilized man' has resulted in a disastrous threat, not only to the human survival but, also to life as a whole on our planet.

Inhaling smoke of this herbs renews the brain cells, revitalizes the .skin, purifies the blood and prevents growth of pathogenic bacteria "Heal the atmosphere and the healed atmosphere will heal you"

The medicinal fumes emanating from the process of heating formulation have been observed by researchers in the field of microbiology to be clearly bacterio static in nature, which eradicate bacteria and micro-organisms and fungus, the root causes of illness and diseases.

Purification of/environment through the constituent electrically charged particles of the substancesfrumi gated by the heating of this formulation is an obvious byproduct of this process; According to Dr. Hafkine, the smoke produced by burning the Mixture of ghee and sugar kills the germs of certain diseases; inhaling it from some distance induces secretion from certain glands related to the windpipe that fill our heart and mind with

Removal of , Foul Od ors:

As already stated, under steam volatilization, the various volatile oils get diffused in the surrounding atmosphere along with sleatπ and smoke. Since tliese oils have distinctly good smells, the foul odors are automatically neutralized. This aroma can be effortlessly ' ■. smelt in the surroundings by the heated smoke. It is due to the . diffusion of substariceslike thynol, eugenol, piene, terpinol and oils of sandalwood, camphor and clove.

Removal of Insects:

There are' non-bacterial parasites like flies, ringworm, dice fleas 1' etc., which are normally difficϊilt to deal with since bactericides which can be used jigainst them are also harmful to other living organisms. Such insects are generally immune to ordinary reagents. However they either get killed or are driven away when they come in

contact with volatile oils like camphor, which are ditfused in the environment during the process of fumigation.

Effects on Plants and Vegetation;

The disinfection of air is not only useful to animal life but it also helps plant life. The aromatic substances, which get diffused in the air through this process offer protection to plant life against harmful organisms. This ensures a healthy plant growth.

Sublimation (in chemistry):

The process by which a solid is converted, on heating directly, into a gas, without going through a liquid state. Only a small number of solids sublime; e.g. carbon dioxide, CO2 and Iodine, 12. Some solids that do melt to form a liquid still evaporate quite rapidly if kept below their melting-points; e.g. Iodine and sulphur. This is also sublimation, and can be used as a method of purification.
