Sanitation Using Ozone & Chlorine

For nearly 100 years, ozone has been used all over the world for water sanitation. It is nature’s strongest oxidizer and has a byproduct of pure oxygen. Chlorine, on the other hand, is a very effective, time-proven chemical, but is ineffective against hard-to-kill microorganisms such as cryptosporidium. It also has some unpleasant byproducts. Together, however, these two substances can ...

Ozone in Cooling Water Treatment

When commercial ozone generators were first introduced for cooling water treatment, they were marketed as a stand-alone treatment, a cure-all or panacea. We now know this is not the case. Because there have been many misconceptions regarding ozone, this article is intended to review the basics of ozone, its true capabilities and limitations, and its potential benefits in cooling water treatment ...

Ozone treatment for cooling towers

Abstract The use of ozone as a maintenance treatment for cooling towers has good potential for operation and maintenance savings in the Federal secior. A small amount of ozone acts as a powerful biocide thai decreases or nearly eliminates the need to remove quantities of water from the cooling tower in order to decrease the concentration of organic and mineral solids in the system. ...

Ozone for Waste water Treatment

Ozone has been used for many years to treat pathogens such as bacteria and algae in water for applications such as drinking water supplies and air conditioning system cooling water. More recently, most water bottlers have adopted ozone. Ozonated water for treatment of fruit, vegetables, fish, etc. in the U.S. awaited the GRAS approval. Now that has happened, and projects are emerging everywhere. ...

A study on the effects of ozone dosage on dissolved-ozone flotation (DOF) process performance

Dissolved-ozone flotation (DOF) is a tertiary wastewater treatment process, which combines ozonation and flotation. In this paper, a pilot-scale DOF system fed by secondary effluent from a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in China was used to study the effect of ozone dosage on the DOF process performance. The results show that an ozone dosage could affect the DOF performance to a large extent ...

Ozone-based reclamation of an STP effluent

The system ozone and hydrogen peroxide was used to reclaim wastewater from the secondary clarifier from a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) of Alcalá de Henares (Madrid-Spain). The assays were performed by bubbling a gas mixture of oxygen and ozone, with ~24 g Nm-3 of ozone concentration, through a volume of wastewater samples for 20 minutes at 25°C . The removal of dissolved ...

Is your ozone generator up to the job?

After over a decade of building and supplying many ozone generators for water treatment all over the world, I had noticed that we hardly sell anything locally. It seemed strange to me, so I decided to call several different local water treatment professionals to find out what was the reason behind this. I asked them if they had ever used an ozone generator for water treatment. To my surprise, ...
