Abstract

A method of making an oxygen-rich and stabilized oxidizing agent in a liquid, preferably water, involves exposure of aerated liquid to repeated bursts of ringing magnetic flux having a primary frequency of 10 kHz to 80 kHz, with the bursts repeated at a frequency of 1 Hz to 100 Hz, and with the water being kept at a pH level between 7 and 10. The oxidizing agent is believed to be a stable complex of hydrogen peroxide having and anti-microbial effect on microorganisms and biofilms achieved by oxidation. The method can be applied to treatment of water in a recirculating air conditioning system that employs a cooling tower (10), main tank (14), distribution chamber (13), chiller (12) and evaporative fan (22).
