Dispersion Destabilization in Magnetic Water Treatment.
The destabilization of fine nonmagnetic particles as one of the possible mechanisms for magnetic water treatment (MWT), an alternative method for scale control in industrial water processing and amelioration of dispersion separations, is discussed. Numerical results (based on an electrical double-layer theory) for the theoretical model of surface neutralization due to ion shifts from the bulk of the solution toward the particle surfaces, are presented to show the theoretical possibility of accelerated coagulation of scale-forming particles during and after MWT.
