Hi Ya'all, This will make Mike Monett's allergies blow their tops!!
First some background. I had 12 one gallon jugs of of DW delivered to me and they are all from the same plant, the same still, and bottled at the same time. I know their date coding. The first 2 gallon run yesterday was made using a constant voltage supply of 36 volts. The run was for 3.5 hours, the integral of the current from 0 to 3.5 hrs.. is 17.6278 mAHrs. The Ag+ = 13.6 ppm, the pH is 6.98 Almost no T.E. or sparkles. The anode weight loss is 0.22 gms. The final conductance was 65.5 uS/cm. Today I made 2 gallon run using the same instrumentation and equipment with the exception I added a current limiting device set to limit at 6.34 mA. This run was for 5.5 hrs.. to reach the same conductance level of 65.5 uS/cm. The Ag+ = 7.92 ppm, pH = 6.42, noticeable T.E. and many sparkles. The integral of the current from 0 to 5.5 hrs.. is 25.159 mAHrs. The anode weight loss is 0.10 gms. Note the ratios: Weight loss 0.10/0.22 = .4545. PPM 7.92/13.6 = .5823 Considering that my 3 beam balance is only calibrated to 0.10 grams, there appears a reasonable relationship between weight loss and the amount of silver present. Remember PPM is really uG/mL or a weight measure. I wish that many of you would request the Wplot32.exe program so that you can look at the data plot. If you just download the attached files you can look at the data by opening the file with "notepad" I wonder id there is ANYONE on this list that records and plots the data that they tout on this list??? Sorry Mike, but I am not "untrustworthy" nor a "fool" nor is my data unreliable as I have standards for everything, besides having five independent labs verify my work. How many labs have checked your work??? List please pardon the above but the is a level of arrogance and ignorance that I will ot put up with. "Ole Bob"
