Do you have any idea of the logic behind adding the citric acid? I am not a chemist and can not venture even an uneducated guess. Is there any underlying logic apparent to a chemist?

Ion Chromatograph has confirmed that citrate is the anion in WaterOz Ionic
Silver.

Silver citrate at a concentration of 100 ppm (WaterOz) can cause argyria if
caution is not exercised in how much is consumed.

Silver citrate can be produced by electrolysis by using a "colloidal silver generator" of either HVAC or DC type design. By adding citric acid to the DI water before starting the process, citrate will become the companion anion
when silver cations are added to the solution by electrolysis.

The ph will be neutral when the silver cations balance the available citrate
anions.
