... or are you just going to stir it all up, so to speak, and see what comes out? which <G> come to think of it, is how 'Mother Nature' often operates (biomimicry). Howdy Jones, The original unit demonstrated the ability to form a near perfect "eyewall" type vortex. This eyewall is intriguing enough for us to want to pursue some interesting as well as far out suggestions for tests including yours regarding microwave into the center of the eye. Still trying to figure out how to rig a test for this. Could an external magnetron connected to a submerged wifi antenna "work" under water ? The object is to attempt to shake, rattle or roll minerals out of brackist and seawater prior to filtering upstream of the reverse osmosis membrane batteries. We can aereate some out via oxidation but overwhelming in scope. Some input states a combo of events may allow a 'disconnect" of mineral from water sufficent to separate. Shucks, if my ole great grandad could make the best "corn squeezins" in Crockett county, we should be able to separate minerals from water. Course the " revenuers" got him in the end but his reputation remained intact, it was only his neck they stretched. Richard
