Description

MODE OF INVENTION

[0008] The production process of the flammable multi-purpose organic fire starter involves several systematic steps. Initially, the flammable solid particles are precisely cut to the desired dimensions. Subsequently, a blend of flammable waxes and oils are meticulously formulated, adhering to predefined ratios. These solid particles and liquid components are then combined at ambient temperature and can be subjected to compression under controlled pressure, resulting in the formation of a solid mass with specified shape and dimensions.

[0009] To facilitate ignition, a wick may be incorporated into the solid mass. Alternatively, depending on specific requirements, the flammable organic mixture can be utilized as a suspension. In this context, it can be applied directly by pouring or spraying onto the surface of the target object. Upon ignition, the flammable organic mixture emits a fragrant aroma, enhancing the overall experience.

[0010] In the present invention, the combustible liquids are obtained from various natural oil mixtures consisting of leaf, bark, fruit and seed oils, oily residues, and waxes. They are preferred in order to maximize the effect of the invention. The all-natural combustible solid particles are obtained from the trees, shrubs, ground cover, grasses, and plant species. The solid particles include seeds, fruits, leaves, stems, sticks, branches, inner bark, shavings from the inner bark, sawdust of inner bark, shavings from the outer bark, chips, quillings, off cuts, fannings, coarse cut, tea bag cut, fine cut, powder, flower buds and flowers, depending on the requirement and availability.

[0011] Here, a mixture of leaf, bark, fruit, and seed oils, oily residues, and waxes are mixed with particles of organs from trees, shrubs, ground cover, grasses, and plants of the following species.
