Outline

Introduction Problems Objectives Target group Impacts of magnetic water Installation & cost Conclusion

Introduction

Water situation in Oman Shortage of water about 390 Mm3/year 92% Consumption of water by agriculture Population, Demand, Consumption, Quality Recovered by desalination and treated wastewater etc New technique to improve water quality

Problems

Major:

Deficit of good quality water for agricultural purposes Reduction in yields production Deterioration of soil quality
Salts accumulation Water pipe scaling

Minor:

Objectives

Improvement of irrigated water quality Water with minimum consequences increase agricultural yields

Target group

Agricultural students and staff. Farmers

Magnetic Water

Original Water & Todays Water

What is magnetic water ?

It is simply passing water through magnetic field , making structure of molecules more homogenous.

Process of Magnetizing :
1- Water 2-Magnetic field 3-Magnetic Water (Plus-Minus)

Characteristics Of Magnetic Water

14 characteristics improved Improve:

Biological activity Electrical Conductivity Chemical Reaction Dissolution

Impact on soil quality:

Enhance the mobility of nutrients in soil.

Salts

Higher yield Production by25 %.

cont

Saving fertilizers up to 30% Reducing the use of water needed to about 30% Shortening the vegetative period normally by 15-20 days.

Impacts on irrigation pipes :

Removing Scale
Dissolving scale within the time to 90%

Source: Aqua Vantage Systems

Installment :

Magnetized systems are adapters that are connected to irrigation pipe line.

Cost

Magnetic Adapter Drinking + industrial + Agricultural 1.5 inch 175 Rials 2 inch 360 Rials 3 inch 485 Rials

( Time life 10 yr , No maintenance)

Conclusion

Zamzam Water is Magnetic Water ! Magnetic Water is safe and effective solution for the current problems. Friendly to environment (no hazard)
