The Nernst layer is extremely thin, perhaps only hundreds of nanometers thick.

The loss in conductivity may be due to silver sulfide on the electrodes.

The fact the conductance changes would also occur with leaching from the plumbing, contamination from the jug, leakage from the pump, and many other sources. The salt test is immune to contamination, and is a reliable indication of the amount of silver in the solution. You also have never performed a Faraday calculation, so you cannot compare the readings you get from the Hanna with the amount of silver released from the anodes. You have no idea what you are really producing. If you are really producing 45+Us, why is no other vendor using the same process? Why does Frank not show any product reports with values as high as you claim? > And as you say, the PWT meter cannot tell the difference between > minerals (contamination) and silver ions so the measurement MUST > be silver ions. That is a false assumption. You can put salt in the dw and get the same reading. There is no silver in salt, so you cannot claim the reading shows how much silver is in the solution. You need to take very careful steps to show your system is free of contamination. You have not done so. > Now, please leave me alone. I do not have the time for this. You are the one who made the claim and posted it. You have time to make claims of the performance of your system, but not enough time to prove they are correct? That is a rather risky business model, don't you think? >Trem Mike -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
