A Note about Physics and Chemistry

In this web site we refer to physics and chemistry in their nineteenth century meanings as if they were in fact separate disciplines. We also separate these two fields for self-serving reasons. The major competitors to MagneGen^® magnetic water treatment devices are not other physical magnetic devices but chemical treatment. While physics and chemistry continue to be taught as separate disciplines in High Schools and Universities they are in fact one and the same. All chemical reactions are physical. What we are all attempting to understand and utilize are forces of physics. This was not well understood until the detonation of the atomic bomb in 1945. That was a rather dramatic demonstration that physical forces ruled the physical world.

A Note about Electrical Charges

MagneGen^® distributors should understand the basic science behind the products they sell. In most cases, scientific principles taught in basic high school chemistry and physics course are sufficient. The one area lacking in many non-engineers are principles relating to electrical charges. Potential is the relative amount of electric charge at a point in an electric field as referred to some other point in the same electric field. It is important to note that in nature the earth has greater potential than water with the result that the application of Helmholtz's interface theory results in a flowing steam being positive while the earth is negative. This fact can be verified through direct experimentation using a digital multimeter set on DC millivolts. A flowing stream will register several hundred millivolts positive while stagnant water will register a few millivolts negative. We recommend that anyone seriously interested in magnetic water treatment purchase a a digital multimeter and learn how to use it when monitoring pipe polarity.
