Applications of Ozone

Ozone is a gas that can safely be used in either a gaseous state or dissolved in water. The most common way to clean with ozone is to dissolve the gas in cold water and use the resulting solution in place of hot water and chemicals as a sanitizer. The key issue when ozone is used in water is the how much dissolved ozone is placed in the water. The concentration (ppm) X Time (minutes) = CT Value. If the concentration of ozone (ppm) is low then more time to sanitize is needed. The need to have higher concentrations is a problem for most ozone equipment in that 1.5 – 2.5 ppm is typical. To get good sanitation you need to have 10-15 ppm of ozone in the water. Typical ozone applications currently include:

  • Mold Control
  • Beverage Processing
  • BOD Control
  • Equipment Sanitization
  • Fruits/Vegetable Washer
  • CIP Systems
  • Ozonated Ice
  • Groundwater
  • Laundry Washing
  • Meat Processing
  • Medical Sterilization
  • Odor Control
  • Poultry Processing
  • Pork Processing
