Vortex Electromagnetic Frequencies
During the past decade, there has been considerable investigation of the effects of static magnetic and electromagnetic fields (EMF) on water or on the behavior of aqueous solutions and suspensions. The physicochemical properties of water (oxidation-reduction potential, pH, etc.) may be altered by the magnetic and electromagnetic fields. These changes depend on the field intensity and/or frequency. Despite intensive research, the mechanisms by which such electromagnetic fields act on water are still a controversial issue. Indeed, it has been difficult to obtain good experimental reproducibility, mainly due to variation in water composition and/or
environmental conditions. Among the different hypotheses put forward regarding the targets of EMF, the colloid/water interface appears to be the most probable. For instance, Chibowski et al. studied the effects of EMF in the radio frequency range (44 MHz) on pH, conductivity and ζ potentials of colloidal particles of different oxides. They observed noticeable oscillations in the ζ potential for hours after treatment. Colic and Morse, working with radio frequency EMF on colloids in water, proposed that the electromagnetic exposure effect results from a perturbation of gas/liquid interface and noted that degassing removes all of the observed effects (ζ potential, turbidity, etc). These changes persist for hours and even days. Fesenko et al., treating triply distilled deionized water with microwaves, suggested that the EMF might act on gas dissolved in water. Eberlein proposed a quantum vacuum radiation explanation of the effect based on the influence of an oscillating EMF on the gas/water interface. Previous studies from our laboratory and others show that
species arising from container/content interactions affect the physicochemical properties of water. We developed and present in this paper new experimental procedures to investigate the effect of pulsed lowfrequency EMF on water. In particular, special attention has been paid to
water purification and physicochemical characterization and
environmental conditions (atmospheric, electromagnetic, and acoustic). Moreover, glassware was made of pure fused optical silica in order to minimize the release of compounds from the containers. Experiments were also carried out to explore the influence of gas bubbles on the EMF effect by using static and dynamic light scattering. Finally, we discuss different mechanisms for the action of the electromagnetic fields, in particular via a mechanical action on the ionic charges present around gas bubbles.
