An apparatus and method for producing colloidal silver. A large-volume container, such as a fifteen gallon container, includes a hinged lid on which a rotational impeller is mounted along with several sets of electrodes that are electrically connected to a power transformer. The container is partially filled with water, and when the lid is closed, the sets of electrodes are disposed in communication with the water in a predetermined arrangement, and the impeller resides submerged in the water. Certain of the electrodes constitute silver wire. The power transformers convey current to the electrodes, preferably alternating current, at voltages sufficient to cause silver particles to separate from the silver wire and enter the solution in a stable, suspended state. The impeller is rotated, preferably continuously, to prevent the suspended silver from remaining in upper levels of the water, thereby dispersing the silver particles more uniformly throughout the volume of water.

We disclose a colorless composition comprising silver particles and water, wherein said particles comprise an interior of elemental silver and an exterior of ionic silver oxide, wherein the silver particles are present in the water at a level of about 5–40 ppm, and wherein the composition manifests significant antimicrobial properties. Methods of use of the composition are described.

Colorless composition comprising silver particles and water, wherein said particles comprise an interior of elemental silver and an exterior of ionic silver oxide, wherein the silver particles are present in the water at a level of about 5-40 ppm, and wherein the composition manifests significant antimicrobial properties. Methods of use of the composition are described. The composition can be incorporated into a hydrogel with essentially no loss of antimicrobial properties.

An apparatus and method for positioning each of the many silver electrodes into the tank of water such that arcing does not occur. This consists of a light or electromagnetic detector held in the tank of water so as to be close to the point where the silver electrode comes in contact with the water. When the silver electrode comes close enough to the water that an electrical arc occurs the detector observes this and sends a signal to the motor control. This signal is in turn sent to the motor causing it to turn. This turning action causes the treaded male rod to turn and it moves toward the water. As it moves downward it in turn lowers the silver electrode down until it comes close enough to the water that the arcing stops. When the arcing stops then the signal to the motor stops and the motor stops turning.

An apparatus and method for positioning each of the many silver electrodes in the tank of solution such that arcing does not occur. This consists of a light or electromagnetic detector held in the tank of solution so as to be close to the point where the silver electrode comes in contact with the solution. When the silver electrode comes out of the solution such that an electrical arc occurs the detector observes this and sends a signal to the motor control. This signal is in turn sent to the gear head electric motor causing it to turn. This turning action causes the two pressure rollers to turn and move the silver wire, which is held between the rollers, down into the solution until the arcing stops.
