Existing Scale Deposits Removal by Magnetic Water Treatment: Theoretical Study and Experiment

Scales are hard deposit, which stick very firmly to the inner surfaces of the pipes and are very difficult to remove. This document studies the effect of magnetic water treatment on the scaling power of hard waters and shows how permanent magnets help to remove existing scale deposits in water. We demonstrate how a strong applied magnetic field increases the aragonite/calcite ratio in the deposit and thus inhibit scaling potentiality of treated water. Therefore, magnetic water treatment accelerates crystallization of mineral scales preventing them from adhering to the pipes.
