◆Christ's College, which had failed to prevent rust using sacrificial anodes The Todd Building at Christ's College attempted to prevent rust using sacrificial anodes in 2008, before the introduction of the NMR Pipe Protector. Sacrificial anodes work by having the metal that makes up the anode dissolve, preventing oxidation in place of iron. However, the results did not stop the progression of red rust corrosion. Annual applications of rust inhibitors did not change the iron content in the water, and there were concerns about the effects of the rust inhibitors on human health, prompting the consideration of other effective measures against red rust. Consequently, the NMR Pipe Protector, which had proven effective in rust prevention in the UK, was selected and its introduction was decided. The NMR Pipe Protector emits specific electromagnetic waves that induce NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) in the water flowing through the pipes. This, combined with the kinetic energy of the water, reduces red rust to black rust through the discharge of hydrated electrons (free electrons from water molecules). The robust black rust does not dissolve in water and serves to reinforce the piping. Additionally, the volume of black rust is about one-tenth that of red rust, which helps to reduce and improve blockages caused by red rust. Next time, we will introduce the actual rust prevention effects of the NMR Pipe Protector.
