Roger There is a faily simple way to determine the ionic concentration that Bob's equipment is capable of producing as follows: 1. Run the equipment on the smallest practical batch, say 1 or 2 liters, or whatever is possible to run. 2. Run the process for a long period of time, TBD, or until large flat silver particles start to precipitate out of the solution. 3. Let the solution cool down to room temperature and site for about a day. 4. Stir briefly to cause any further precipitation to complete. 5. Measure to the total silver content and the ionic content. 6. The difference between the total and the ionic is the particles. 7. The ionic content represents the maximum ionic concentration possible at room temperature. Simple, enough, eh? frank key -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
