water treatment.

Very simply--it doesn't work at all. Numerous well instrumented tests have all shown this 'technology' is not effective at doing anything except changing location of money--from your pocket to Theirs.

Treat a water coming from a borehole to do what, exactly?

With any removal process, there are usually two outlet streams from one inlet stream. One of the outlet streams contains what is wanted, and the other contains what is not wanted. It is difficult to conceive a clip-on magnetic device that will do this!

The easiest way to get rid of iron is to aerate it Spray it into an open tank run over a weir or similar

Well, a factory in Dagenham does this. The process steps?

• Get the water to the surface
• Chlorinate it to precipitate the iron
• Provide retention time
• Slow sand filter
• Activated carbon filter
• Chlorinate it for drinking, else send the non-chorinated water to an ion-exchange plant for pre-treatment for boiler feed.

Bowers is right - Powermax is a scam. It can have minimal beneficial effects in a very narrow range of applications. Instead of Chemical Biocides etc water can be exposed to Ultraviolet light for some duration while passing through the line from the borehole. There are companies which make such systems, better still would be a properly sized arrangement of Prefilter, UV Treatment, post filter, carbon bed filters, Polishing filter. If you want the water to be really clean, add a properly sized reverse osmosis system. With all these treatments your water from nearly any source would be drinkable.

good luck

MY WATER TREATMENT CONSULTANT HAD ADVISED ME THAT AT A FLOW RATE OF OVER 20FPS IT CAN CHANGE THE CHARGE ON THE CALCIUM CARBONATE IONS TO REDUCE SCALE FORMATION, OUR TESTS INDICATED THAT WE STILL NEED CHEMICAL TREATMENT AND THAT THE MAGNETS SOLIDIFIED SNAKE OIL.

Impossible. Magnetism can only be used to settle tiny suspended magnetic particles at best. It cannot be used to purify water. To remove iron from water, the iron must be oxidized.
