@All, as far as development ...

@All, as far as development of an idea like this goes, there are basic tests that can be done which would show if this line of thing might have any merit. One thing I always do when posting work in an open forum is make known my willing ness to donate the patent rights to charity. This way, if some one else finds it is something they might want to try, that's okay. The link is to what is a simple diagram representing anodes and cathodes. The unusual alignment would be to create a better spark with less amperage/voltage. And with some thing like this, if positive anodes are pushed through a thin piece of rubber, then a thin rubber backing can be applied to it. After that, the cathodes can be pushed through and then sealed with a film of rubber. The anodes and cathodes would need to be very close to each other so as to almost be touching each other. And then holes can be punched in between the anodes and cathodes in varying configurations if desired. One thing this would do is show if a low amperage/voltage spark (think your car's engine here) would push salt ions away from pores. If so then a small test piece about 1 in. sq. or 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm would be a simple test that would show if solute could flow through an electrical charge while a denser solution continues down the drain back into the brine it came from. And with this, a pipe in a pipe is the basic plumbing. The solute would flow into a larger diameter pipe that surrounds the pipe with the salt water solution. I do have my current project which will take rest of the year to finish. It's a historical project and is important to me so I hope all of you don't mind my not having the time for this right now. Although it is something I thought I would find out what other people thought of it and if they think it might be worth pursuing.
