What is Ozone?
Ozone is one of the most powerful oxidants available, destroying bacteria, viruses, mold, formaldehyde, and mildew in air, water and diverse applications almost instantly and more efficiently than any other technology. Ozone’s molecular structure is three oxygen atoms (O3).
How does ozone work?
Ozone destroys pathogens and odors by an oxidation process: one of the three oxygen atoms reacts and splits from the ozone molecule to oxidize matter with inherent oxidation demand. In so doing, the ozone molecule is transformed into oxygen. Any excess ozone is stable for a short time before decomposing back into oxygen.The most common ozone applications include air and water purification as well as applications where ozone can fully or partially replace disinfectants. As opposed to most chemicals, ozone is safe to use.
How does ozone remove ammonia or bad odor?
Ozone will be emitted into the air through corona discharge, react and decompose with harmful gas such as odor, ammonia etc.If you can smell some Active oxygen flavour at 4-5 meters far from the ozone generator, it means that you have made good disinfection effect of odor removal.According to authority detection,ozone can kill 99 % bacteria and virus.Ozone will reach very good effect of disinfection when bacteria is blow safe concentration(0.1PPM), which is 3 meters height, 46mg per hour per square meter, it will do fortissimo sterilization with more than 99% disinfection rate.Usually, disinfection effect will be better if has lower temperature, higher humidity.
Why is ozone a green technology?
Ozone is a green technology with many environmental benefits. It reduces our dependence on traditionally used, harmful chemicals such as chlorine and eliminates their hazardous disinfectant by- products (DBPs). The only by product created by ozone applications is oxygen which is reabsorbed into the atmosphere. Ozone have effective ability to disinfect in cold water, remove bad oder also saves energy.
Will Ozone hurt me?
Once the ozone concentration fails to meet the hygiene and safety standard, we can notice with our sense of smell and dodge away or take actions to avoid further leakage.So far there is no one dealth reported caused by ozone poisoning.
