Causes of Scale Fouling: Even in hard water areas, pipes will not scale unless the saturation index of the water is exceeded. If the water is under-saturated or at equilibrium saturation, there will be no scale. Conversely, "soft water" can scale if it becomes over saturated. The saturation index of water is controlled by it's acidity (or alkalinity which is the reverse) which we establish by pH measurement. The lower the pH, the more acid the water and the more it can hold in solution. The higher the pH, the less acid the water, the lower the saturation index, and the less the water can hold dissolved minerals. We raise the pH by heating the water, causing pressure drops (eg taps) and adding chemicals. By raising the pH, we are reducing the ability of the water to hold minerals in solution and these minerals are forced to precipitate and cause scale fouling. Recirculating systems (eg cooling towers, steam generators, water recovery systems) operate at cycles of concentration with pressure drops and temperature variances causing both supersaturation and pH increases simultaneously. In addition, Industry, for process reasons, will add lime or an alkali to their liquors which i) raise the pH and/or ii) oversaturate the liquor. All these are called "Scaling Events" Mechanism: The AquaVantage Sender/Control Unit sends an electronic "message" to a double coil assembly wrapped about the exterior of the pipe. The "message" is within a broad band of discreet frequencies covering over 20kHz and powered many times a second. The current through the coils is alternating, thus we have an oscillating magnetic field. The result is Induced Digitally Pulsed Transverse Electromagnetic Frequency Fields from low frequencies and extending through to Ultrasonic frequencies which are constantly varying in strength, intensity, frequency, and indeed, ultra-sonic power. The AquaVantage field is quite unique and not duplicated by any other product or system. The Induced Transverse Electromagnetic Multi-Frequency Field uniquely created by the AquaVantage System strips the scaling minerals ions off the water molecules, creates sites of nucleation and forces the oppositely charged ions to combine. The result is inert and non-scaling crystals of Calcium Carbonate which simply wash through to waste or settle out in time vessels such as clarifiers. We call this mechanism "Crystallization Dynamics and Induced Fields" or CDIF for short. After treatment, the water molecules and specifically the H2 component will seek to react with and pick up ions from existing fouling. This increased solubility + flow will erode the existing scale. The Ultrasonic frequencies, unique to AquaVantage Systems, also act, and are crucial, to clean the pipes and keep them clean. The Ultrasonics have proven successful especially on the most demanding applications. Types of Scale Fouling Prevented: We will normally refer to Limescale or Calcium Carbonate fouling but this mechanism remains effective for other mineral scales as will such as Sulphates and other less well known types of fouling.
