Abstract
A method for conditioning water includes the steps of subjecting the water to a magnetic field treatment by causing it to flow through at least one magnetic field; and subjecting the water, in combination with the magnetic field treatment, to an oligodynamic treatment. An apparatus for conditioning water includes a chamber defining a flow path through which the water to be conditioned flows; at least one magnet system disposed about the chamber for generating a magnetic field, which magnetic field extends transversely to and penetrates the flow path; and pieces of at least one oligodynamically active metal disposed in the flowing water within the chamber.
Claims15
A method for conditioning water, comprising:
- subjecting the water to a magnetic field treatment by causing it to flow through at least one magnetic field;
- and
- subjecting the water, in combination with the magnetic field treatment, to an oligodynamic treatment performed without external current supply by disconnectedly disposing metal pieces of at least one oligodynamically active metal in the flowing water, the metal pieces having dimensions and shapes which allow them to be moved by the flowing water, wherein the at least one magnetic field surrounds a vertical flow section and the metal pieces are movably disposed within the vertical flow section, and wherein the water is caused to flow upwardly through the vertical flow section and has a flow rate which is adjusted so that the oligodynamically active metal pieces constantly move.
An apparatus for conditioning water by subjecting same to a magnetic field treatment in combination with an oligodynamic tractment, the apparatus comprising:
- means defining a chamber in which chamber is defined a flow path through which the water to be conditioned flows, the chamber having means defining an inlet opening and means defining an outlet opening;
- at least one magnet system disposed about said chamber for generating a magnetic field, which magnetic field extends transversely to and penetrates the flow path;
- and
- pieces of at least one oligodynamically active metal disconnectedly disposed within the magnetic field in the the flow path of the water within the chamber, wherein foraminous members are positioned respectively at said inlet opening and said outlet opening of the chamber for permitting the passage of the water therethrough while preventing the passage of said metal pieces from said chamber.
An apparatus for conditioning water by subjecting same to a magnetic field treatment in combination with an oligodynamic treatment, the apparatus comprising:
- means defining a chamber in which chamber is defined a flow path through which the water to be conditioned flows,
- at least one magnet system disposed about said chamber for generating a magnetic field, which magnetic field extends transversely to and penetrates the flow path;
- and
- pieces of at least one oligodynamically active metal disposed within the magnetic field in the flow path of the water within the chamber.
