Ozone Disinfection Systems

Why Use Ozone?

Ozone is rapidly emerging as the most efficient and ecologically sound oxidant to treat both organic and inorganic substances. A fast-acting and effective treatment technology, ozone is now used in a variety of water treatment applications. Best known for its superior disinfection capability, ozone has been used in the European municipal water industry for over 100 years. Ozone treatment is becoming widely used for potable water in North America--now the most rapidly growing market.

Ozone is one of the strongest commercially available oxidizers, making it popular for primary disinfection of potable water as well as for color removal and organic removal in wastewater applications.
 

Relative Oxidation Power of Various Oxidizing Species

Based on chlorine as reference (=1.00)

Greater oxidation power translates to faster disinfection times. Compared to chlorine, ozone excels by a wide margin in relative oxidation power (destruction capability). Ozone also excels over chlorine in oxidation of organics. In addition, chlorine oxidation by-products, such as chloramines, can sometimes create further water quality problems. Employing ozone instead of chlorine greatly reduces the potential for this type of problem.
