Abstract: A method and an apparatus for preparing an alimentary granular soft caviar similar to black (granular) caviar. The method involves the preparation of a mixture containing an albuminous colloid, water, and alimentary gelatin to form the grains, exposing the grains to tea water, dye-stuff, salt solution and gustatory components. The grains of caviar are obtained by supplying the mixture under pressure through gauged channels to a cavity with heated vegetable oil in its upper section, separating and washing the grains, tanning the grains in a tea extract, water washing, washing with salt solution, introducing to the product of a gustatory component in an amount not less than 10% of the total weight of the product and mixing the grains with vegetable oil. The albuminous colloidal solution is soymilk, foremilk of mammals, or a mixture of these components, a mixture of cow/soy milk, or whey of soy or cow milk. The grains are dyed by immersion in an extract from the rind of green walnuts.

Abstract: The present invention relates to various forms of ozone generator having a discharge means and a reflecting screen and methods for their application. The discharge means is a rough-surfaced dielectric element with central aperture and rectangular cross-section sandwiched between a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode is a plurality of helical windings that contact a plurality of flanges on the dielectric element and the second electrode is an electrically conductive coating which overlies the rough surface of the dielectric element. One form of the ozone generator has a central unit and two side units, where the side units can be rotated to form various shapes. The various shapes of the ozone generator can be used for room deodorizing, clothes freshening, and shoe deodorizing. Other applications for various forms of the ozone generator include treating and maintaining hair of humans and pets, room deodorizing, and shoe deodorizing.

Abstract: An apparatus for preparing an alimentary granular soft caviar similar to black granular caviar is described. The grains of caviar are by supplying a mixture containing an albuminous colloid, water, and alimentary gelatin under pressure though gauged channels to a cavity with heated vegetable oil in its upper section, separating and washing the grains, tanning the grains in a tea extract, water washing, washing with salt solution, introducing to the product of a gustatory component and mixing the grains with vegetable oil. The apparatus includes a cavity containing the initial mixture, outlet pipes with stream-forming heads, a source of gas pressure, a cylindrical granulating cavity for forming grains of the product, a nipple for draining excess forming liquid, water jackets around the cavity and the granulating cavity, and a receptacle at the bottom of the granulating cavity for accumulation of the produced grains.
