Abstract

The study focuses on the principle of water purification by electromagnetic focusing of the charged particles of contaminants. We have designed an electromagnetic control device (EMCD) of water treatment. A water flow is treated in an axially symmetric electromagnetic field. Aggressiveness of the filtrate is reduced due to a multi­stage process. The first stage involves the selection of the most aggressive components of the filtrate. The second stage is the choice of the physical impact on the flow of contaminants for their subsequent removal. The effect of the axially symmetric electromagnetic field on the charged particles of impurities provides the Larmor precession of the magnetic moment. The precession makes the impurity ions rotate around the vector of the external magnetic field. This spins the trajectory of the charged particles, whose total mass forms a paraboloid of revolution. The filtrate treatment involves focusing contaminants and removing them from the general flow. This allows controlling the mechanical trajectory of impurities when the latter are removed from the main flow. We have found the inverse relationship of the Larmor radius of the impurities and the focusing coil current. The value of the Larmor radius of impurities of 0.07 m is obtained by increasing the focusing coil current up to 0.1 A.
