Industrial Ozone Generator
The Core Role of Ozone Technology
Ozone, a substance with powerful oxidative disinfection capabilities, plays a vital role in water treatment. It not only effectively sterilizes and disinfects, but also degrades a variety of harmful water components, including heavy metal ions and organic impurities such as iron, manganese, sulfides, benzene, and aldehydes. Furthermore, ozone can deodorize and decolorize water, significantly improving its purity.
Notably, ozone is highly adaptable, unaffected by water temperature and pH, and its sterilization effectiveness surpasses chlorine and UV disinfection. Even more impressive, the treated water is colorless and odorless, offering a superior taste, effectively improving the quality of drinking water. Therefore, to enhance the quality and extend the shelf life of bottled drinking water, the International Bottled Water Association (IBWA) recommends ozone treatment technology. In practice, bottled water is typically first processed through reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, and ultrafiltration to remove 99% of organic matter from natural water, thereby reducing ozone usage.
Food and Drinking Water Treatment
Ozone technology is widely used in drinking water treatment for sterilization, odor removal, and water purification. It not only effectively sterilizes bacteria but also removes odors and pigments, and degrades heavy metal ions like iron and manganese, as well as organic impurities. Studies have shown that ozone can eliminate nearly all harmful substances in water, ensuring drinking water safety. Internationally, drinking water standards require zero total bacterial counts and coliform bacteria, a standard that is strictly enforced in developed countries like Europe and the United States. Consequently, ozone water treatment technology is widely used by water supply companies.
Swimming Pool Water Treatment
In the field of swimming pool water treatment, ozone can improve pool water quality, prevent secondary pollution, and achieve cosmetic effects. Although its application in my country is not as widespread as in developed countries, with the improvement of economic and cognitive levels, its widespread application is just around the corner.
Aquaculture Water Treatment
Using ozone technology to treat aquaculture water significantly promotes the growth of fish, shrimp, and crabs, while also delivering significant economic benefits. Ozone promotes healthy growth of aquatic species, increasing survival rates and yields. This practice, widely used in Europe and the United States, can increase fish production in fish ponds by over 30% and shrimp production in shrimp ponds by over 60%.
Circulating Cooling Water Treatment
Circulating cooling water is widely used in the industrial sector, including in large-scale facilities such as power plants, fertilizer plants, and chemical plants, as well as the more popular central air conditioning systems. Ozone reduces pollution, saves water, and reduces energy consumption, offering broad application prospects. Extensive ozone treatment research on circulating cooling water was conducted in the United States in the late 1970s. The results demonstrated that ozone not only has multiple benefits but also effectively saves water and reduces pollution.
Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Ozone decomposes toxic components and removes color, making it an important and efficient method for treating industrial wastewater. It rapidly decomposes the cyanide in cyanide complexes. Through a two-step reaction, the highly toxic CN- is first oxidized to CNO-, and then further oxidized to non-toxic CO2 and N2. Ozone also exhibits excellent decolorization capabilities for various dye wastewaters, in addition to disperse dyes.
Composite Ozone Water Treatment
Although ozone has excellent oxidizing properties, it is often a key step in the treatment of complex water bodies. Combining it with biochemical, photocatalytic, or drug-assisted methods is essential to further enhance treatment effectiveness.
High-Concentration Ozone Water Preparation
The generation of high-concentration ozone water is a critical step in the composite ozone water treatment process. Compared to low-concentration ozone water, high-concentration ozone water has stronger oxidizing power and can more effectively treat complex wastewater components. However, during the preparation process, high-concentration ozone water is necessary to enhance treatment effectiveness, but attention must be paid to equipment and safety. High-concentration ozone water is widely used in various fields, including sterilization and disinfection, pesticide degradation, and food preservation.
Sterilization and Disinfection Applications
High-concentration ozone water is widely used to sterilize surfaces and equipment in the food and pharmaceutical industries. For example, in food and pharmaceutical factories, high-concentration ozone water is often used to sterilize raw materials and surfaces to ensure production requirements.
Pesticide Degradation and Water Treatment
High-concentration ozone water is highly effective in fruit and vegetable processing, food preservation, and water treatment. It effectively removes harmful substances such as pesticides, fertilizers, and food additives, and removes algae and sterilizes water.
Food Preservation and Purification
High-concentration ozone water is used for food storage and public hygiene. It plays a key role in the storage, preservation, and disinfection of raw materials and finished products in cold storage plants, food processing plants, and livestock slaughterhouses. It can also be used in hotels, restaurants, government cafeterias, and other places, providing an effective sterilization and disinfection solution for tableware, fruits, and vegetables.
In summary, ozone combined oxidation technology plays an important role in the sewage treatment process, so it is necessary to use ozone combined oxidation technology reasonably to improve the effect of sewage treatment. In the sewage treatment process, the use of ozone combined oxidation technology can effectively decompose impurities in the water and reduce the color of the water, thereby ensuring the effect of sewage treatment. At the same time, the use of ozone combined oxidation technology can protect the environment, so the scope of application of ozone combined oxidation technology is becoming more and more extensive.
