Title:
DEEP SEAWATER, METHODS OF INTAKING AND USING DEEP SEAWATER AND METHOD OF PRODUCING DEEP SEAWATER PRODUCT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/058314
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Deep seawater is defined as seawater deeper than 200 m below the surface (the compensation
depth) where sun’s rays cannot reach. Because of having favorable characteristics
such as high stability at low temperatures, high cleanness, eutrophic properties,
maturity and high mineral content, studies have been made to intake and utilize
deep seawater. To effectively utilize deep seawater, however, it is necessary
to select, intake and use deep seawater suitable for the purpose of using while
considering economic efficiency. Thus, the existing techniques including
patents and technical terms should be revised based on new findings and studies
and discussions should be made on the novel definition of deep seawater and novel
effects and utilization methods of deep seawater. Depending on the vertical
distributions of various factors, the location of deep seawater being excellent
in cleanness and maturity is specified. At the same time, a method of producing
drinking water by efficiently taking advantages of deep seawater, important
points to be noticed in fishery, techniques for using deep seawater in food processing,
methods of using deep seawater for medical and health purposes, etc. are indicated.
