Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for the removal of ferromagnetic materials from liquids, organic or inorganic compounds and mixtures, respectively, mainly fuels, for treating with a magnetic field and reduction of surface tension. The apparatus according to the invention contains a plurality -at least two- coaxial magnets having a hole therein and being in the direction of flow of the liquid and being separated by a disc, as well as housing made of a non-magnetizable material closed at both ends with end-closing means and provided with a bore for passing through the liquid to be treated.
