Abstract
A process of conditioning a fluid includes passing the fluid through a magnetic field. A fluid conditioning system includes a conduit through which fluid passes, and a magnet assembly including at least one magnet disposed such that the produced magnetic field penetrates the conduit. The conduit is formed from a material that allows the magnetic field to have a magnetic effect on molecules of the fluid as it passes through the conduit. The conduit has a cross-sectional area designed to maintain a flow rate of the fluid through the conditioning volume within a pre-determined range. The magnetic field produced by the magnet has a field strength within the conduit, and the predetermined range is predetermined as a factor in combination with the field strength to precipitate an ion from the fluid in the conditioning volume.
