Softening of Groundwater at Samarra City by Electromagnetic Polarization

Abstract The purpose of this investigation is to examine the effect electromagnetic polarization on groundwater softening. Samples were delivered from Samarra city, Salah-Aldin government, Iraq. treatment process was conducted using a locally manufacturing device. This device uses magnetic circuit, an iron core, which made it pole, air gap, and coil copper wire. Treated samples are achieved by passing them through with flow rate (4, 6, 12, 25, 50) ml/min., Total hardness concentration (800, 1050, 1300, 1550, 1800) mg/l. as CaCo 3 flux intensity (0.5, 0.75, 1 1.25) Tesla. repeated all these parameters. ability reduce Hardness Dissolved Solids (TDS) assessed measuring influent effluent. It concluded that amount slightly reduced hardness-causing ions (Ca 2+ Mg ) significantly after for softening efficiency removal ranging (3.25 35.2)%.
