Apparatus and methods for enhancing molecular oscillation for removing chlorine in water

Abstract

An apparatus and a method for treating saltwater and removing chlorine in water to make a variety of sodium-based byproducts and chlorine gas is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a feed tank for receiving water. The feed tank is coupled to a plurality of Radio frequency (RF) chambers. Each of the RF chambers comprises an inlet and an outlet. The outlet is coupled to a treated water effluent manifold. Further, each RF chamber is coupled to a vacuum manifold. Each RF chamber comprises a recirculation pipe to pump water back into the feed tank. The RF chamber comprises a RF system used for bombarding RF energy at predefined frequencies on the water in order to liberate chlorine isotope. Additionally, the RF system bombards RF energy to stretch hydrogen bond in the saltwater to a point of breaking a molecule by applying low pressure. The hydrogen bond captures chlorine. Subsequently, the water is sent through the outlet to the treated water effluent manifold.
