Abstract:
A multi-modal system for modifying water structure in a solution to continuously affect the hydration forces acting on the constituents in said solution, said system including:a containment vessel defining a treatment environment, said containment vessel including a wall defining a fluid passage and a fluid inlet coupled to said passage to centrifugally direct said solution helically along said wall;at least one electromagnetic energy delivery unit disposed within said containment vessel, said at least one electromagnetic energy delivery unit responsive to an input source to generate electromagnetic energy of varying frequency over time sufficient to stimulate said solution and affect said hydration forces in order to aid in the separation of the constituents from the solution;a controller having a detection unit including a loop antenna for sensing one or more parameters indicative of the content of said solution and operative to generate feedback representative of said detected content; anda control unit including a spectral analyzer responsive to said detected feedback to determine a set of optimal treatment parameters and coupled to said at least one electromagnetic energy delivery unit to generate said imput source to alter said variable electromagnetic energy in accordance with said optimal treatment parameters.
