What Is Limescale ?• Limescale is formed when calcium and magnesium Limescale is formed when calcium and magnesium

minerals accumulate and form a hard mass of crystals on minerals accumulate and form a hard mass of crystals on rough surfacesrough surfaces

• The crystalized substance is known as aragoniteThe crystalized substance is known as aragonite• Limescale originates from Limestone which is mostly Limescale originates from Limestone which is mostly

formed by the fossilized shells of sea organisms over timeformed by the fossilized shells of sea organisms over time

Calcium and Magnesium salts dissolved in water form a hard mass of crystals on the rough surfaces of equipment and pipes.

Limescale

Effects of Limescale

• Reduces water heating efficiency• Reduces water flow• Causes blockages, leaks and damage in plumbing systems and apparatuses • Can paralyze entire factories• Traditional treatment requires the use expensive and dangerous chemicals

When does Scale Form?1. Calcium and bicarbonate are dissolved in water2. Water becomes super-saturated when temperature increases or pressure decreases3. Ions precipitate as calcium carbonate [limescale]

• The Hydropath signal is aThe Hydropath signal is a decaying sine oscillation of decaying sine oscillation of ± 150 kHz± 150 kHz

• Pulse separation time Pulse separation time variesvaries to work in a range of to work in a range of applicationsapplications

• The decaying pulse is The decaying pulse is extremely extremely efficient (Less than 20W)efficient (Less than 20W)

The difference between Hydropath Technology and other physical water conditioning technologies is the ability to induce an electric signal into the water which is 30,000 times more efficient than a magnetic signal

How Does HydroFLOW Treat and Prevent Limescale

• The Hydropath signal encourages the calcium carbonate ions to form clusters• These clusters then become seed crystals; crystals prefer to attach to existing crystals

Calcite Cluster Formation

Seed Crystals1. Crystals form all along the rough surface of the string when

there’s no seed crystal

2. When a seed crystal is present, crystals will form on it instead of the string’s rough surface

With HydroFLOW

The Pipe

LimescaleThe Pipe“Innovations that put nature to work for you!”

Without HydroFLOW With HydroFLOW• Juice is heated in a heat exchanger

• Rapid limescale build-up reduces heat transfer

efficiency

• Each heat exchanger functions for only 6 hours

before servicing

• With HydroFLOW the heat exchanger remains

clear of limescale

Prevention of limescale in sugar production

Dissolving existing limescale• Crystals form• Creates Carbon Dioxide• Dissolves existing scale

To dissolve scale, HydroFLOW requires hard water

HH22OOCa + (HCO3)2 CaCO3 + CO2 + H2O

Hard water is water that has high mineral content . Hard water has high concentrations of Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions

Before After

Dissolving existing scale

After 4 Months

HydroFLOW prevents limescale formation• Without chemicals• Without changing water composition

HydroFLOW dissolves existing limescale• Carbon dioxide is expelled as crystals are formed and gradually begins to dissolve existing limescale

How Does HydroFLOW Treat Bactaria ?

Semi-permeable membrane

• Semi-permeable membrane: lets water pass but not salt.• Water flows from dilute to concentrated region

• Bacterium cell: semi-permeable membrane• In distilled water, water flows into bacterium cell• Bacterium becomes “too diluted”, bursts and dies * Even kills “freshwater” bacteria

Osmosis and Bacteria

HydroFLOW and Bacteria1. A bacterium passing through the HydroFLOW unit becomes charged, creating a wetting layer of pure water 2. Osmosis forces water into the bacterium and causes it to burst within seconds

• HydroFLOW eliminates 99.99% of bacteria and algae passing through the unit

• No chemicals or disinfectants required

Main Benefits of HydroFLOW

Lab Test - Bacteria

Results•After one hour, the bacteria count was down to a minimal value of less than one per milliliter

This corresponds to a 99.99% reduction!

Test Method•A 50 liter water tank was filled-up with tap water•The whole fixture was sanitized before adding Staphylococcus Aureus and E. Coli to the water•The water was circulated through the HydroFLOW unit by a pump for an hour •A water sample was then taken from the tank to test the bacteria count

Bacteria clings to pipe surfaces

Fouling by bacteria and algae leads to fouling by larger organisms

How Does HydroFLOW Treat Biofilm ?

Biofilms and Bio-fouling

Bacteria and algae cling to pipe surfaces and forms a Layer known as biofilm

Biofilms and Biofouling

Larger “micro-foulers” attach to biofilm

Biofilms and Biofouling

• Biofilm attracts larvae• Larvae grow and hatch into limpets, barnacles, etc.• Biofilm leads to microbial induced corrosion

The HydroFLOW signal conducting in the metal pipe causes the release of Biofilm and

Biofoul

• No bacteria and algae means no biofilm• Larvae and micro-foulers will not attach

Metal Pipe

• HydroFLOW prevents the formation of biofilm

• HydroFLOW prevents fouling by larger organisms

• HydroFLOW prevents microbial induced corrosion

How Does HydroFLOW Enhance Filtration?

The HydroFLOW unit

charges suspended

particles, causing them

to flock so that they are

more easily filtered out of water systems

Filtration Enhancement

Particles become charged

Turbulence mixes-up particles and create flocks

Pump

Filter

Filter removes flock

• Eliminates the need for chemical flocculants

• Reduces the duration and frequency of back washing

• Improves water quality and clarity

• Reduces energy and maintenance costs

Main Benefits of HydroFLOW

How Does HydroFlow Reduce Corrosion ?

The induced AC current passing along the metal pipe creates a coaxial magnetic field which inhibits corrosion by up to 60%.
