Pulp mold comprising seaweed, and production method for same

Abstract

The present invention relates to pulp molded products including seaweed by-products and methods for producing the same. According to the methods of the present invention, pulp molded products including seaweed by-products are produced using apple pomace and/or green tea pomace. The presence of seaweed as a biodegradable and eco-friendly material and the addition of apple pomace and/or green tea pomace allow the pulp molded products to have natural antibacterial and anti-insect functions.

1 . A method for producing a pulp molded product, comprising: filtering out foreign materials from a seaweed sludge to prepare a stock of seaweed fibers (first step);
 separating fibers from apple pomace and adding the apple pomace fibers to the stock of seaweed fibers (second step); pulping the stock, to which the apple pomace fibers have been added, with agitation (third step); and producing a molded product using the pulp (fourth step).   
     
     
         2 . A method for producing a pulp molded product, comprising: filtering out foreign materials from a seaweed sludge to prepare a stock of seaweed fibers (first step); separating fibers from green tea pomace and adding the green tea pomace fibers to the stock of seaweed fibers (second step); pulping the stock, to which the green tea pomace fibers have been added, with agitation (third step); and producing a molded product using the pulp (fourth step). 
     
     
         3 . A method for producing a pulp molded product, comprising: filtering out foreign materials from a seaweed sludge to prepare a stock of seaweed fibers (first step); separating fibers from apple pomace and green tea pomace and adding the apple pomace and green tea pomace fibers to the stock of seaweed fibers (second step); pulping the stock, to which the apple and green tea pomace fibers have been added, with agitation (third step); and producing a molded product using the pulp (fourth step). 
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the seaweed sludge comprises one or more of agar-agar, sea string, sea mustard, and kelp. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the first step further comprises cutting the seaweed sludge to a length of 5 to 20 mm. 
     
     
         6 . A pulp molded product comprising seaweed and produced by the method according to  claim 1 . 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the seaweed sludge comprises one or more of agar-agar, sea string, sea mustard, and kelp. 
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the seaweed sludge comprises one or more of agar-agar, sea string, sea mustard, and kelp. 
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 2 , wherein the first step further comprises cutting the seaweed sludge to a length of 5 to 20 mm. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 3 , wherein the first step further comprises cutting the seaweed sludge to a length of 5 to 20 mm. 
     
     
         11 . A pulp molded product comprising seaweed and produced by the method according to  claim 2 . 
     
     
         12 . A pulp molded product comprising seaweed and produced by the method according to  claim 3 .
