Reply to comment by DecentFart in Magnetic solution removes toxic "forever chemicals" from water in seconds by chrisdh79

This is flocculation and sedimentation, which has been done in drinking water treatment plants for decades (centuries if your definition is loose enough) except now with magnets instead of gravity.

Gotcha. I didn't ream into it. I just jump to snake oil when I hear about using magnets to clean water because of my experience. I've worked in waster water for manufacturing facilities as well, but not an expert. I know clarifiers at paper mills stink.

Edit: I'll read some to save others explaining.
