Magnetic
Technology Australia Company Profile
Magnetic Technology Australia (MTA) manufactures and markets the Scale-XTM
Magnetic Fluid Conditioners (MFC's).
Magnetic Technology Australia was established in 1987 to market
magnetic fluid treatment systems for the control and/or elimination of scale in
pipes and vessels of industrial and commercial water process systems.
It quickly became apparent that the magnetic fluid treatment
equipment commonly available in the market place lacked in de-scaling
performance for severe scaling conditions and also the ability to withstand
installation in harsh environmental conditions thus greatly limiting the variety
of its applications and uses.
From 1988, MTA expanded into product research, development and
manufacture. Firstly, through
careful research into severe scaling problems (conducted in major industrial
applications and the laboratory) on both inorganic and organic scale, the
various factors that determine the performance of this technology were
established. Secondly, by using
advanced scientific technology and by using modern developed materials, MT was
able to develop and manufacture a new concept de-scaling product whose performance was three
times that of the existing products. Thirdly, the product range was expanded
allowing the application of magnetic fluid treatment technology to be applied in
new commercial applications.
The most common application of this technology is in
eliminating calcite, gypsum and dolomite scale in water systems, that is,
calcium and magnesium mineral salts build up in pipes and vessels.
As a result of MTA’s product development, it successfully
expanded into treating the more severe scaling problems existing in steel
pre-treatment systems and milk process systems.
The range of scales treated was thus expanded to include organic as well
as inorganic compounds.
In 1998, as a result of requests from the oil and gas
industry, MTA conducted research into oil and gas production systems, in
particular, offshore oil platform production systems.
Successful laboratory tests simulating severe scaling problems occurring
on offshore platforms in the South China Sea were carried out under controlled conditions in a
laboratory approved by the Australian National Testing Laboratory Authority.
This
resulted in revolutionary new products being developed for application on offshore platforms. These units are highly
flexible in retrofit, incur low capital cost and zero operating costs and are
virtually maintenance free. MTA now has installations which have eliminated
the most severe scaling problems experienced on offshore platforms. These
new products are suitable for application in all heavy industry including the
mineral refining industries.
Health
and Safety Policy
Magnetic Technology Australia (MTA) is a "health
and safety" conscious company. Health and safety issues
have been reduced to either nil or negligible.
Strategic
Alliances
MTA has established strategic alliances,
relationships and agreements, with:
(1) other equipment designers and suppliers
to the oil and gas industry, the manufacturing, the mining and mineral refining, the food industries and
ultrasonic washers for hospitals and industry, and
(2) with a process
engineering company with wide experience in a range of process industries
including process chemical engineering, environmental engineering and water and
liquid waste management for physio-chemical and biological treatment processes.
