Production of highly ionized alkaline water using a combination of reducing metals and reductive minerals
Methods and systems are provided for producing ionized alkaline solutions (e.g. ionized alkaline water) that exhibit long-term stability when stored at room temperature.
1. A method of producing an ionized alkaline liquid, comprising
contacting an ionic liquid with a medium comprising:
about 30-70% by volume of one or more group II elements;
about 10-20% by volume of one or more rare earth minerals;
about 1-50% by volume of one or more metal reducing agents; and
about 1-25% by volume of one or more mineral buffers;
wherein said step of contacting is carried out for a period of time sufficient to ionize ionizable molecules in said ionic liquid.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said medium comprises:
about 50% by volume of one or more group II elements;
about 15% by volume of one or more rare earth minerals;
about 30% by volume of one or more metal reducing agents; and
about 5% by volume of one or more mineral buffers.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of contacting is carried out by flowing said ionic liquid through said medium.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of contacting is carried out by static exposure of said ionic liquid to said medium.
