Ozone in nature Ozone is naturally produced by ultra-violet rays from the Sun and lightning-based corona discharge. These two methods account for nearly all natural ozone creation on Earth. Why sky looks blue?

Ozone Formation via Corona Discharge An electrical discharge (a spark) splits an oxygen molecule into two oxygen atoms. (Electrical discharge is also referred to as corona discharge. ) These unstable oxygen atoms combine with other oxygen molecules. This combination forms ozone.

Ozone Generators use the Same Methods Oxygen is forced between high voltage plates to simulate corona discharge. The oxygen is broken apart and recombines into ozone

Effect of Ozone on Bacteria 1. A healthy bacillus bacterial cell 4. A newly created hole in the cell wall has injured the bacterium. 2. An ozone molecule (blue) comes into contact with the cell wall 5. The bacterium begins to loose its shape while ozone molecules continue creating holes in the cell wall. 3. As ozone molecules make contact with the cell wall, a reaction called an oxidative burst occurs which literally creates a tiny hole in the cell wall. 6. After thousands of ozone collisions over only a few seconds, the bacterial wall can no longer maintain its shape and the cell dies

Ozone Odor Destruction Ozone reacts with a foreign odor to change is composition so it is no longer the same odor. A new molecule is formed but this new molecule is typically less odorous that the original one. When ozone makes contact with the odor molecule, the odor is destroyed, but so is the ozone molecule. Stronger odors mean more odor molecules present therefore more ozone is also needed.

Commercial use Microbiological pollution in wastewater treatment plants, agriculture, medicine Drinking water treatment in poultry farms, animal farms Groundwater treatment of chemical pollution. Improving agriculture soil quality from mineral remains

Advantages of Ozone • Ozone is the strongest oxidant and disinfectant available for the treatment of aqueous solutions and gaseous mixtures. • Although ozone is only partially soluble in water, it is sufficiently soluble and stable such that its oxidation or disinfectant properties can be fully utilized. • After ozone oxidizes or disinfects, it decomposes into oxygen. • Ozone reacts with a large variety of organic compounds resulting in oxygencontaining organic by-products. • Although ozone is the strongest oxidizing agent commercially available, it is safe to handle. The primary reason is that it cannot be stored and, therefore must be generated and used on-site. • Ozone in its gaseous phase is a proven deodorizer for a variety of odorous materials. • In treating potable water, wastewater, and landfill leachate, ozone has the proven ability to convert biorefractory organic materials to biodegradable materials. As a result, combining ozone oxidation with subsequent biological treatment can produce water or wastewater with lower concentrations of problematic organic compounds more cost-effectively than either process used individually. • Applying ozone to any medium (liquid or gaseous) does not add other chemicals. • Ozone, by itself, does not affect p. H (ozone can oxidize the contaminants which are causing a p. H adjustment)
