Are you thinking about Microdyne, here, Stever?

I'll make a wild guess: If you ran 'til you saturated and it started to precipitate, you'd get an idea of how much silver a given volume/concentration can absorb. Any current would probably let you get to the same concentration, with the only variables being how long it takes and whether you boil the water! You could maybe even calculate the amount you could get based on the chemical reaction between the silver and citrate. This reminds me of the old days, making CS with 3 9v batteries and a drop of brine solution as a "starter" and getting an alleged "1 ppm per minute" while streams of bubbles came off the negative electrode and visible clouds of "silver" (silver chloride, I presume) came off the positive. Definitely not an exercise in current limiting. > * Do I need to balance the pH to something closer to 7.0 after > generation? What is the pH? Got test strips?
