The Science Behind the Invention

The
Scalewatcher
Invention
In 1991, Jan P. Be Baat Doelman, a Netherlands scientist, patented an electronic method of treating water. His method is proving to be a much needed alternative to salt based water softeners. It uses a complex frequency modulated electric field to safely control the precipitation of calcium carbonate crystals. Treated crystals remain in the water and do not stick to pipe walls.

 Scalewatcher manufactures a full line of electronic water conditioning products for use in residential and industrial applications. 

The Science Behind the Process There has been substantial research done to determine the science behind the process of electronic water conditioning. Based on the literature, it appears that the science of electronic water conditioning may not be fully understood at this time. The key thing is that the process works! The information that follows is based on the conclusions reached by scientists working on this technology.

Scalewatcher's electronic water conditioner subjects water to a specially modulated electric field. This field causes changes in the molecular organization of the calcium and other scale producing minerals found in domestic water sources. Instead of the calcium remaining in the water as unattached ions, the electric field excites the formation of calcium carbonate crystals. These microscopic crystals are invisible to the naked eye. They are carried through the water pipes with the water. The crystals are free floating, and do not attach as scale to pipes and water heaters. The result is that the calcium is no longer in solution where it can precipitate out as calcite and grow as scale in water heaters, pipes, and on shower heads and other places.

 

Accumulated Scale is Dissolved Scale that has built up over time in pipes is dissolved. The conversion of free calcium and carbonate ions into calcium carbonate crystal depletes the calcium carbonate in solution. As the calcium carbonate depleted water courses through pipes and water heaters, it slowly dissolves accumulated lime scale. The scaling of pipes, nozzles, faucets, and water heaters is actually reversed.

 

A New Solution to a Long Time Problem The Electronic Water Conditioning method developed by Scalewatcher provides a non-invasive, easy to install solution to problems associated with hard water. It is environmentally sound. It simplifies the lives of home owners by eliminating the problems of scale build-up. Chemicals that are used to remove lime scale from faucets, shower tiles, and pipes are no longer needed. Water pipes regain their carrying capacity, and the dangers of salt pollution are eliminated.
