Electrostatic water treatment is a new water treatment technique used in circulating cooling water system, but just as magnetic water treatment, the scale inhibition mechanism of this technique is not conclusive. In this paper, the effect of electrostatic field on calcium carbonate crystallization were investigated by measuring the change of conductivity in solution. The results showed that the formation of CaCO3 was accelerated obviously by electrostatic field, and the electrostatic memory lasted at least 100 h following the treatment.
