Ozone
(O3), also is a highly unstable gas and strong oxidant. It is corrosive,
toxic and has strong odour. Ozone is produced by high-power electrical
discharges in air/oxygen. Naturally, it is found in low concentrations
throughout the Earth's atmosphere. Due to its strong oxidizing nature, Ozone
is used in many industrial and commercial applications as it is used in
several ozone products, ozone generator products, ozone generator systems
and more. Ozone are produced commercially through Ozone Generator.
Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent and highly unstable
at high concentrations, decaying to regular O2 molecule. Once decayed, it
releases active O atom. This Oxygen atom is very reactive and combine with
other elements to make a stable molecule.
Being a very strong disinfectant and oxidizer, ozone can
disinfect materials via oxidation process. Ozone is stronger oxidizer than
chlorine, a most common water disinfection chemical. Moreover, ozone is
3,000 times faster than Chlorine. Ozone is regarded as safe, cost-effective
and chemical-free.
Over years, ozone treatment systems has been used for purifying drinking
water in various part of world. In addition, ozone finds a wide application
in commercial and industrial works like decontaminating cooling tower etc.
Ozone is also used in the processing food stuffs like meat, poultry, seafood
etc.
