ECOLOGICAL MULTI-PURPOSE CLEANER
I. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The cleaning and hygiene of our home is necessary and must be a task that is
do it regularly. But generally, we use harmful products for the
environment and for ourselves, because they touch us in our hands and also
we breathe and inhale its smell.
That is why the following question is raised:
Can a cleaner be made that can be used on many surfaces and you
allow cleaning your home quickly and effectively while not causing harm
environment
II. RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
Develop an eco-friendly multi-purpose cleaner to prevent harm to the environment
environment.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE
To start as multipliers of environmentalist attitudes in their life
daily social.
Experience experiences in the process of artisanal production.
Discover how eco-friendly cleaners work and why we should use them.
III.- JUSTIFICATION OF THE RESEARCH
When it comes to cleaning our home you may want to find a quick way
to clean the entire house without having to constantly change products
cleaning and routines. Many commercial cleaners contain harmful chemicals that
they are not only harmful to the environment but can also damage the
home and family. Instead, we can make multipurpose cleaners that can be used
on many surfaces without harming the environment or doing so as little as possible, for
we justify our project with the purpose that the people of our
community receive this knowledge and elaborate on it, as it is simple and economical.
IV.- THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Cleaning products generally consist of mixtures of various substances.
that combine different properties depending on the dirt, the surface, and the type
of the space that is to be cleaned or the hardness of the water with which it is cleaned.
Thus, a general cleaner may contain a surfactant (substance that breaks up the
dirt, combines with fats and facilitates their dissolution in the wash water) alongside a
alkali (caustic substance like ammonia, sodium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide).
A detergent may contain surfactants, chelating agents (substances that
they prevent minerals from crystallizing, precipitating, or embedding in the materials
with those they contact), bleaches, colorants, and perfumes. They also usually
to use several acids, which are used to remove embedded materials.
A good amount of these substances reach nature through the sewers and
continue to impact the environment, causing, for example, the eutrophication of
the rivers among many other known problems.
Today there are countless cleaners and chemicals that help us with the
time to do the house cleaning, but the truth is that there are also products
natural substances that act as powerful cleansers.
Natural products for cleaning
VINEGAR: It is a water softener, disinfectant, and descaler.
BAKING SODA: To clean sinks, tiles, kitchen and bathroom marbles,
we put baking soda on a damp cloth.
LEMON JUICE: It is the best deodorant, its acidity makes life impossible for
the microbes responsible for bad odors.
ALCOHOL (C5H12O) is a good cleaner, dries surfaces quickly, it is
disinfectant and effectively removes grease or glue stains.
GLYCERIN (OR GLYCEROL) is a colorless, odorless, viscous, and non-toxic liquid, with
a very sweet flavor and literally has thousands of uses, including that of a cleaner
(removes stains from urine, coffee...),
IV. WORKING HYPOTHESIS
Non-biodegradable cleaning products pollute the environment.
Is making homemade cleaning products effective? Do they have the
same effect as the cleaners on the market?
V. MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES
MATERIALS
800 ml of white wine vinegar
180 ml alcohol (96%)
15 ml of pine essential oil (150 drops)
5 ml of essential peppermint oil (very good bactericide) (50 drops)
Coloring agent (optional)
Application: 1 cap/bucket of water
PROCEDURE
. Pour the vinegar into a bottle,
. Then add the alcohol.
. Add the essential oil of pine and mint.
. Food coloring can also be added.
. Shake all the ingredients to mix them.
VI. RESULT
A simple, cheap, and excellent product for cleaning surfaces was obtained.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
. There are many homemade products that we can give a new use to.
achieve amazing results.
. A multi-purpose cleaner was made with homemade products.
. These cleaners will always be much more economical, as well as more
ecological and less aggressive.
. In addition to saving time when cleaning, you will be able to contribute to maintenance.
of the environment.
VII. RECOMMENDATIONS
. Vinegar cuts and reduces fat, in addition to being a good descaler.
while ethyl alcohol acts as a disinfectant.
. Although vinegar releases its characteristic smell while we clean, this
color fades within minutes when it dries. If we choose to incorporate the
essential oil, this will "mask" its odor during use.
. The water in your bucket will look much dirtier than with any other cleaner.
non-ecological commercial. This is due to the content of surfactants and phosphates.
of chemical cleaners and that does not make them more 'clean'.
