A flyback will not work properly. The voltage needed is proportional to the frequency, and a flyback operates at around 16 KHZ. You can use about one cycle per minute for 30 Volts, and 60 at 10 KV. For 15 KHZ it would likely take millions of volts. Remember you have to suck the ions far enough away from the electrode for a signinficant number of them to not be sucked back during the reverse half cycle for it to work properly.
