CULTURE FLUID, ADDITIVE FOR CULTURE FLUID, AND CULTIVATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240040980 titled 'CULTURE FLUID, ADDITIVE FOR CULTURE FLUID, AND CULTIVATION METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application related to hydroponics, specifically a culture fluid and an additive for the fluid, as well as a cultivation method using the same. The culture fluid contains water-soluble polymeric molecules and has specific surface tension and kinematic viscosity properties.
- The culture fluid for hydroponics contains water-soluble polymeric molecules.
- The culture fluid has a surface tension between 45 mn/m and 70 mn/m at 20°C.
- The culture fluid has a kinematic viscosity between 0.8 mm/s and 2.00 mm/s at 30°C.
- The additive enables the easy preparation of the culture fluid.
- The cultivation method utilizes the culture fluid for hydroponics.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Hydroponic farming: The culture fluid can be used in hydroponic systems to provide plants with essential nutrients and water.
- Indoor gardening: The culture fluid can be used in indoor gardening setups to grow plants without soil.
- Vertical farming: The culture fluid can be used in vertical farming systems to maximize space and increase crop yields.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Water absorption: The culture fluid enables efficient water absorption by plants, ensuring their proper hydration and growth.
- Nutrient delivery: The culture fluid contains water-soluble polymeric molecules that can carry essential nutrients to plants, promoting their healthy development.
- Easy preparation: The additive allows for the quick and easy preparation of the culture fluid, simplifying the cultivation process.
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased plant growth: The culture fluid provides plants with optimal conditions for growth, leading to faster and healthier plant development.
- Water efficiency: The culture fluid promotes water absorption by plants, reducing water waste compared to traditional soil-based cultivation methods.
- Nutrient optimization: The water-soluble polymeric molecules in the culture fluid help deliver nutrients effectively to plants, ensuring their nutritional needs are met.
- Simplified cultivation: The additive enables the easy preparation of the culture fluid, making hydroponic cultivation more accessible to a wider range of growers.
