Specification

Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to field of cleaning and purifying device. More particularly, the present disclosure provides an electromagnetic cleaning device for waste fluid.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Large scale purification of waste water often face abundant technical and economic problems. Conventional chemical treatments for removing toxic materials may be expensive and may cause health concerns and ecological allegations. Water evaporation and condensation may be some other methods for purification. However, evaporation and condensation may consume lots of energy and time and may be highly dependent on environmental conditions. Therefore, non-chemical and non-thermal waste water treatment technologies, such as electromagnetic field (EMF), may be an alternate path way so chemical involvement processes may be avoided or minimized.
[0004] EMF controlled devices have demonstrated beneficial effects on toxic particles removal. However, scientific basis for purported effectiveness may be not clear, especially lack of quantitative assessment and systematic evaluation of effectiveness of EMF technologies. In maximum cases, permanent magnets may be used and specified on cylindrical surfaces, which may be fixed on surface of pollutant water. To capture multi-pollutant particles some functionalized nano magnetic particles may be dispersed into waste water and recollected by magnetic drum and separated by specific arrangements. However, magnetic fields may be restricted up to certain distance. Undeniably, some pollutant particles are heavy and flocculated and coagulated at deep from surface. Therefore, efficiency of present existed methodology may be limited to area and in depth of waste water.
[0005] Existing solutions may also include use of chemicals like portable water purifier, iodine or chlorine may be used as a disinfectant. These chemicals are added to untreated water to kill harmful microorganisms and make water safer to drink. However, pollutant water from heavy industries are discarding their waste water (industrial bi-product suspended water) either into river directly or some cases cleaning with several physicochemical process. But to remove suspended heavy metal and/or microorganisms in water may be randomly existed with discarded water.
[0006] There is a need to overcome above mentioned problems of prior art by bringing a solution that facilitates in cleaning and collecting toxic pollutants without causing harm and is cost effective, along with low power consumption. The solution may focus on EMF to help in removing the toxic pollutants with help of nano magnetic materials, where the nano magnetic materials may be reused.
