An old/used power supply from an electrostatic copy machine works great as
an ion generator.  Most have the desireable neg. HV output and operate off
120 VAC.  They usually produce 5 kV DC.  All you need to do is attach the
output to an insulated group of small needles --- usually 10 spaced out at
1/4 inch spacing.  A small 10 cfm fan blows through the needles and
circulates the negative ions in the room.  A window screen on the inlet near
the fan and the same type of screen (plastic is best) on the outlet side.

Many times if you can track down a large copier repair shop they would give
you one for free.
