The drops of water evaporated side by side on the same glass slide under identical conditions.
The numbers of the hard crystals of drops of the same size are compared. The reduced number of lime crystals along the rim of the treated water drops is used as a direct measure of the reduction of the hard lime scale by the treatment.
In this example the magnetic treatment was about 92% effective. The untreated water produced 220 hard crystals per 50 microgram drop: the treated water, less than 18.
Higher magnification of the evaporated drops reveals that the calcium carbonate of the treated water has formed circular, disc-shaped crystals, which are widely distributed over the surface of the drop, as compared with the large prism-shaped crystals grown in the untreated water on the glass.
These disc shaped crystals with their specific appearance in the polarized light are well known in solid state physics to he "seeded crystals." This means the crystals have grown around a "seed" that became available to the solidifying lime as a welcome starting center for its solidification.
6. Why do some agencies in charge of water quality insist that magnetic water treatment does not work?
Because they tend to consider & test the chemistry of water - which is not changed by the physical treatment.
The main reason for the discrepancy between the facts I have reported and the claims of those agencies is a matter of nomenclature.
In a number of countries, agencies exist that claim to be concerned about "water quality." They consider water to be H2O molecules containing other substances. They determine water quality by a level of measurable contamination by unwanted chemicals. So, when these agencies test magnetic treatment, they try to determine the effect of treatment by analyzing the water chemically before and after the treatment.
Naturally, they cannot find any difference, because magnetic treatment does not change the amount of chemicals in the water.
These agencies are not concerned about the crystalline status of the chemicals within the water, because traditional .... (continued on next page, click here)
