GMX Makes Water Conditioning History

Scientific Verification of the Effectiveness of GMX Magnetic Water Conditioning

The first US patent in magnetic treatment of water was lodged in 1890 (1). But it has taken more than a century for scientific experimentation to be designed to comprehensively test single-pass magnetic treatment.

GMX International is sponsoring research at Cranfield University, UK, one of the leading international water sciences academic and research institutions. The GMX-sponsored research into scale suppression based on single-pass magnetic treatment is the first of its kind, being based on duplicated samples of both treated and untreated water of precisely defined water quality. Additional tests are being carried out on a specially-designed recirculation rig in which all parameters are rigorously defined.

Establishing Protocols: Initial Results

Initial trials conducted on the recirculation rig have been encouraging. These have shown a significant suppression of scale formation due to the GMX Model 800. Work on the single-pass boiler rig has also yielded positive results, and future work will be focused on identifying those parameters responsible for enhancing or suppressing the magnetic eftect in the single pass mode.

One of the most challenging aspects of this research has been the establishment of protocols. Since there is no identical research to serve as a test model, we have had to create the mechanisms and the methods by which to produce credible and reproducible data. By sponsoring research in this way, GMX has placed itself at the forefront of international scientific research and development in magnetic technology.

The Single-Pass Boiler Rig

The boiler rig was built and commissioned in 1996. Trials were initially conducted by only sampling the quality of the water entering and leaving the boiler.

Subsequent experiments have focused on the boiler elements themselves. Although the four elements shown may look approximately the same (and the picture did not scan well), analysis of the scale formed on them shows up to a 52% decrease in the scale formed on the two outer elements. These are the ones that have been supplied with water treated using the GMX Model 800.

Continuing Research

As this research continues, the supervising scientists expect test results to further demonstrate the effectiveness of GMX magnetic technology, and to expand our scientific knowledge and understanding of magnetic water conditioning.
