Anti-corrosion Device for water pipeNMR PIPETECTOR

Mechanism of electrolytic protection

NMR Pipetector is a electrolytic protection device

NMR Pipetector is an electrolytic anti-corrosion device for pipe works using NO external power source. NMR Pipetector uses hydrated free electrons of water, and these hydrated electrons (e-) reduce corrosion (FeO(OH)) to magnetite (Fe3O4) which does not dissolve into water.  Magnetite is also 1/10 the volume compared to corrosion, and it protects inside of the pipe works.

Hydrated electron and water cluster

The NMR effect changes the location of hydrated electrons from inside of the large water clusters to outside of small water clusters by changing the size of large water clusters to small ones.  This phenomena was explained in the paper of the Science published in January 2005.  When big water clusters which have more than 64 water molecules, hydrated electrons stably stay inside the clusters, and when the small water clusters which have less than 32 water molecules, the hydrated electrons stably stay outside of the small cluster.

Reduction of corrosion into magnetite by hydrated electron

The small clustered water flows in the pipe works by the power of pressure pump and it separately discharges hydrated electrons. Hydrated electrons reduce corrosion (FeO(OH)) to magnetite (Fe3O4) and shrink the corrosion volume by 1/10. The magnetite layer protects inside of steel pipe from damage by oxidation.

Anti-corrosion effect of hydrated electron

Separating discharge of hydrated electron by the energy of water flow is only occurred when the water cluster is being small with hydrated electron outside of the cluster.
This phenomenon was acknowledged about 50 years ago in the U.S.A.  A chilled water pipe in a nuclear reactor plant had no corrosion.  The hydrated electrons in water were found as the causative substance for this anti-corrosion effect.
The same phenomenon is known as there is no corrosion in the pipe works in which vapor flows, because water clusters of water vapor are the minimum size and have hydrated electrons stably outside the water vapor.   The hydrated electrons are discharged as the water vapor flows in the pipe. Also this phenomenon was proved when the returning pipe has serious rust problems because as the water vapor changes to liquid which is big water cluster in the returning pipe. Thunder is another example of the separating discharge of hydrated electrons by the rapid moving of cumulonimbus cloud which is formed by small water clusters.

Other method for changing water cluster from large to small one

There are other methods for changing water clusters from large to small.  For example, ultrasonic, supply of electric power, electromagnetic and permanent magnetic devices are sometimes used, but it is impossible to maintain the small water clusters for more than a couple of minutes because it gathers back to big water clusters soon after passing those devices by bonding plus charged Hydrogen and minus charged Oxygen. When we use electric pole, we need those devices at every joint of the pipe works where corrosion exists and this is not feasible because it requires a much higher cost than changing the pipes themselves.

Conclusion

Conventional methods, ultrasonic, electric pole and electromagnetic field devices are difficult to effectively discharge the hydrated electrons when water flows, because small water clusters quickly gather back to big water clusters soon after passing those devices by bonding plus charged Hydrogen and minus charged Oxygen.
NMR technology is the only way to prolong the life of pipe works for more than 40 years, because water that has passed through the device keeps hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance for more than 6 hours, during which time it keeps water in small cluster states.  Consequently hydrated electrons stably stay outside the clusters, and hydrated electrons are discharged as the water flows. This effect stops damage by corrosion in that pipe work completely and change existing corrosion into magnetite.
