RE: Chemical free water treatment (Ultra low frequency)
There were links to a few internet sites that contained lists of debunked water gadgets like these:

The forum was called Alternative Water Treatment was listed for a long time and the person must have stopped paying for it.
RE: Chemical free water treatment (Ultra low frequency)
Was there a detailed discussion about the Ultra Low Frequency water treatment for cooling tower water before?
I found that the company (Ecospec Singapore) which was referred in the previous thread (http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=151999) is still active in market and their product is being used in hospital cooling water (http://www.ecospec.com/resources/ck/files/Yishun%2...).
However I cannot find much details about the product details.
Recently I came across a tender specification and it also specified Ultra Low Frequency method as the way for the cooling water treatment and the project consultant is a leading company (AECOM).

Some of them are getting independent testing, but they are far and few between.
So the engineer has to fight the client who sees an equipment website which they think will work, or they know somebody who has one at home which seems to work, so they want to know why it won't work for them.
The engineer can quote all the science they want, but if it works for A, why can it not work for me?

There was one device reviewed that worked with electric frequency:

There are about 20 listed gadgets that use frequency on this site:

The US government was victimized so many times that the army did an evaluation:

The fact that someone at AECOM specified one of these gadgets is meaningless, it just shows that there is at least one moron that works there.
