Application of Ozone MicroNanobubbles

At present, there are many types of ozone Micronanobubbles, and the gas species they contain as well as the dissolved substances in water endow them with different functions. A major characteristic is their ability to act on living organisms. It has been confirmed that oxygen and air nanobubbles can significantly improve the vitality of organisms. Therefore, they have gradually begun to be applied in agriculture, aquaculture, and the medical field.

Research has also found that carbon dioxide ozone Micronanobubbles can act on living organisms by serving as a carrier, and they are also being applied in related civil engineering fields. Compared with traditional oxygenation methods, nanobubbles have a longer effective duration. Ozone nanobubbles exhibit particularly outstanding deodorization and sterilization capabilities.

Ozone nanobubbles in water do not require specific pH conditions, but once dissolved they rapidly decompose. Therefore, they are best used on site where ozone water is produced. In addition, ozone nanobubbles play an important role in wastewater treatment, sterilization devices, and deodorization processes, and have already been applied on a large scale. Ozone micro- and nanobubbles released in saline solutions can maintain their presence in the solution for more than one year.

Some studies have shown that ozone nanobubbles have excellent bactericidal ability and deodorizing effects. They are also known to have strong inactivation effects on fungi and viruses, while exhibiting very low cytotoxicity to human cells.

For example, as shown in Figure 11-22, a mouthwash containing 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) was compared with ozone nanobubbles in bactericidal experiments against oral bacteria (Streptococcus). The results indicate that ozone nanobubbles have a strong killing effect on oral bacteria. Figure 11-23 shows the results of cytotoxicity tests of mouthwash and ozone nanobubbles on oral mucosal cells.
