A process for producing soap is provided, which includes effective
microorganisms (EM) and EM-X ceramic powder, which are added to enhance
the degree of saponification of fat, strengthen the cleaning power, and
to provide a detergent that is capable of proliferating effective
microorganisms in sewage water after washing and cleaning the sewage
water, and which exhibits an effect as a water purification material
after washing. Effective microorganisms (EM) including mainly facultative
anaerobic lactic acid bacteria, yeast and photosynthetic bacteria and
EM-X ceramic powder are added in the process of producing the soap,
thereby, the treated material obtained according to the present invention
exhibits an environmental purification effect as a substrate of benign
microorganisms or a microorganism material.
