Systems and methods for removing precipitate from a surface of a water treatment chamber using a dasher assembly having actuator rods connected to a dasher for scraping an interior surface of the chamber. The chamber has a first end, a second end, and an electrolysis rod extending therein. The actuator rods extend within the water treatment chamber and pass through the first end so that portions of the actuator rods are within the chamber and portions are outside the chamber. The dasher includes an aperture so the electrolysis rod can pass through the aperture and translate the dasher from a first to a second location by translation of the actuator rods via an actuator. The dasher may include teeth to score the precipitate as it translates from the first location to the second location.
The present disclosure comprises devices, systems and methods for the removal of a precipitate from a surface of a water treatment chamber using a dasher assembly having two cylindrical actuator rods connected to a dasher for scraping an interior surface of the water treatment chamber. The water treatment chamber has an enclosed first end, an enclosed second end, and an electrolysis rod extending linearly therein. The two cylindrical actuator rods extend linearly within the water treatment chamber and pass through the enclosed first end so that portions of the two cylindrical actuator rods are within the water treatment chamber and portions are outside the water treatment chamber. The dasher includes an aperture therethrough so the electrolysis rod can pass through the aperture and allow the dasher to translate from a first location and a second location by translation of the two cylindrical actuator rods via a mechanical actuator. The dasher may include teeth extending from an outer edge of the dasher to score the precipitate as it translates from the first location to the second location. The dasher assembly is controlled manually and/or by an automated control system.
Devices, systems and methods for removing minerals from a conductive protonic fluid and creating oxidizers therein. A flow of electrons in the fluid precipitates hardness causing minerals from the fluid. The decrease in minerals leads to the protonic fluid moving towards a thermodynamic equilibrium that prevents precipitation of the minerals. Systems include a vessel containing the fluid, a flow mechanism, a power supply, a control mechanism, and one or more reaction chambers. The reaction chamber has a wall having a conductive surface and a conductive element. The power supply provides an electric field to the fluid in the chamber such that the conductive surface and the conductive element have opposing charges which separate the fluid into negative and positive ions creating an ion gradient and a pH gradient between the conductive element and conductive surface, enhancing precipitation of the minerals on a positive end of the ion gradient.
Devices, systems and methods for removing minerals from a conductive protonic fluid and creating oxidizers therein. A non-alternating flow of electrons in a conductive protonic fluid selectively precipitates hardness causing heavy minerals from the fluid. The decrease in hardness causing minerals leads to the protonic fluid moving towards a thermodynamic equilibrium that prevents precipitation of the noted hardness causing minerals. By-products from the process, like halogens, help oxidize other minerals and treat bio-life within the source. Systems include a vessel containing the conductive protonic fluid, a conductive protonic fluid flow mechanism, a power supply, a control mechanism, and one or more reaction chambers. The reaction chamber has at least one reaction chamber wall having a conductive surface and a conductive element. The power supply provides an electric field to the conductive protonic fluid in the reaction chamber such that the conductive surface and the conductive element have opposing charges which separate the conductive protonic fluid into negative and positive ions creating an ion gradient between the conductive element and conductive surface, resulting in a pH gradient between the conductive surface and the conductive element, thereby enhancing precipitation of the minerals on a positive end of the ion gradient.
