Taal ashfall eyed as soap ingredient

The Boracay Women Producers Cooperative (BWPC) plans to ask the Department of Science and Technology in helping them gather the ashfall produced by the Taal Volcano last month.

A cooperative in the world-famous Island, BWPC claimed that that the ash fall could serve as an ingredient to the soap they are projecting to produce.

The Taal volcano recently produced tons of ashfalls in the provinces of Cavite, Batangas and in Mindoro.

“Right now, we are using the powdered drift wood as main ingredients for our soap. We sell the soap to several resorts here,"according to Maria Ninfa Desiree Segovia, chairman of the BWPC.

So far, the cooperative uses debris from fallen trees and branches brought by Typhoon Ursula in December last year as ingredients. Rain water is also utilized as part of the process.

According to the website volcanicearth.com, ashfall benefits the skin. Among those cited were blood disenfection; bile secretion; aid oxidation reactions in the body; protection of protoplasm cells and synthesis of collagen (one of the main proteins needed for the structural integrity of the skin)./
