I know nothing of the arc process, but what that 100 year old book said, and that did not look particularly good. > > Of course I can also add: > "why us 10,000 volts for a 2 volt DC process"? and...... > "why not use polarity reversing LVDC"?, if you just want > to get all of the released silver into solution? > It appears that for optimum results you need for the voltage/frequency = 150 or so. Thus for 60 htz, optimum voltage is about 10K, and for 30 volts the polarity reversing should be about .2 hertz or once every 10 seconds or so (assuming a linear relationship). It has to do with the diffusion rate from the cathode, reversal should occur when the ions near, but have not reached the cathode yet. If course the distance between the electrodes is very important since the closer they are together the quicker the ions can move across the distance. > > Some will reply that the feature is that it produces in volume, > but the "100 volt pickle jar array" recently posted also will! > Produces in volume (I get 4 gallons an hour), plus no sludge at all, which the pickle jar array may, provided polarity reversal is encorporated, but then it would really be an AC process simply using a lower voltage and frequency. > > Fred: Another feature of the sputtered version of the HVAC CS process is that > you can make very high CS concentrations which may provide an advantage for > treating Lyme disease as well as other tough bugs. I cannot comment on the sputtered version, have no experience with it. The few times I have thrown an arc it has broken my barrier tubes.
