LT4470B - Method of electronic treatment of water - Google Patents

Abstract

This invention concerns the field of water treatment, namely to water softening and protection from the formation of hard silt in water tanks or pipes because of the water temperature or pressure alternation. The electronic water treatment method is distinguished by the fact that it treats the water being processed by a time-varying magnetic field, created by coil flowing alternating current; the novelty is that the magnetic field of the coil is excited by alternating current of modified frequency and/or amplitude. In addition, it adjustably changes the coil flowing current parameters, depending on a water debit in the treatment zone.

Description

The invention relates to the field of water treatment, namely to softening water and protecting it against formation of solid sediments in water tanks or pipes due to changes in water temperature or pressure.

The hardness of water depends on the amount of salt, calcium, magnesium and other minerals in the water, which on the one hand are significant for human health and on the other hand form solid sediments and cause a lot of problems. .l S28 081 for softening water and preventing sedimentation, including chemical treatment of water, in particular magnetite and lime.

Only industrial water supply systems can treat water in this way. Water treatment in this way requires technical facilities, their maintenance and repair, and has a negative impact on the living environment.

There is known a method of treating water by ultrasound, which is described in USSR Invention No. 183 464. This method of treating water requires a special chamber having a source of ultrasonic vibrations through which the treated water must pass.

This treatment of water requires special equipment that violates the integrity of the pipeline, which reduces the ability to apply this technique and is not efficient enough.

Also known is the electromagnetic water treatment method described in USSR Invention No. 1 615 158, wherein the water is exposed to a magnetic field created by a coil fed by a constant or alternating current.

This method is simple but not effective enough.

The object of the invention is to increase the efficiency of the water treatment by preventing the formation of solid sediment (decoction) and decomposition of the sediment already formed.

This object is achieved by the fact that in an electronic water treatment method, where the treated water is operated by a variable magnetic field created by alternating current flowing in the coil, the magnetic field in the coil is excited by an alternating current whose frequency and / or amplitude is modulated.

By treating the treated water with a magnetic field created in this way, hydrogen carbonate ions are released from their electrical contact with water molecules and aragonite crystals are formed, which not only do not form solid sediments, but also decompose the previously formed solid sediments in the pipelines or tanks.

In addition, adjusting the coil power settings in a controlled manner, depending on the water flow rate in the treatment area, selects the optimum operating mode and further improves the water treatment efficiency.

The invention is explained in more detail in the drawing, which schematically shows an embodiment of an electronic water treatment method.

The electronic water treatment method comprises the following operations: the treated water is operated by a variable magnetic field generated by a coil current of modulated frequency and / or modulated amplitude, all parameters of which are adjustable depending on the water flow in the water treatment area.

The electronic water treatment method can be implemented by the device shown in the drawing, which consists of a coil 1, an electrical device 2 which must connect the coils 1 to the outputs 3 connected to an AC power supply (not shown) whose current frequency and / or amplitude is modulated can be variably changed depending on the indication of the flowmeter 4 mounted in the tube 5 and the indicator lights 6. The electrical device has terminals 7 for connecting the flowmeter 4 to the regulating terminals of the power supply.

The insulated wire is wrapped around the tube 5 and forms a coil 1. Connects the coil 1 formed from the coiled wire to the power supply terminals 3. Activates the power supply of the coil 1 (not shown), whose current in the coil excites the magnetic field acting on the treated water. Selects the proper frequency and amplitude of the power supply. The power signal frequency and / or amplitude are modulated to achieve reliable operation of the unit within a given water flow range. The higher the water flow in the pipe 5, the lower the optimum supply current frequency and vice versa. In order to operate the unit in optimum mode, the in-line flowmeter 4 is switched on and, depending on its indication, the supply current parameters are adjustable to select the optimum mode for each case. Indicator lights 6 indicate whether the unit is in optimum operating mode.

The physical work of the device is based on the fact that the electric charge moving in the magnetic field is affected by the Lorenz force, the strength of which depends on the intensity of the magnetic field, the magnitude of the charge and the magnetic field forces. Untreated water contains dissolved salts of minerals that are formed in water by the action of CO ₂ in water. These salts exhibit positive and negative ions in water. Exposure of the treated water to a precisely defined magnetic field created by coil 1 releases the hydrogen carbonate ions from their electrical contact with water molecules and generates aragonite crystals, which not only produce a solid precipitate but decompose the previously formed solid sediment in the water-carrying pipelines. Usually this state of water remains for 2-5 days. This state depends on various factors, for example, this state is reduced when the treated water is at least briefly in contact with the air and the CO ₂ contained therein, which is re-dissolved in the water. The aragonite crystals formed in open systems flow to the surface, and in closed systems, they can be collected in a simple way into the sludge precipitators.
