How Ozone is Produced by Ozone Generator

As we all know, ozone is a strong oxidizing agent while how to produce ozone? Traditionally, there are two kinds of generators taken different ways. One way is ultraviolet rays irradiation and the other is corona discharge. 

The ultraviolet rays irradiation is usually applied for satisfying small water outflow needs. The whole process is simple and cost-efficient. Whereas, the ozone concentration will be no more than 0.1%. Only several grams of ozone can be produced per hour so this way can be used in private swimming pool. The corona discharge is usually applied to produce high concentrated ozone which is highly recommended in public swimming pool of a large circled water flow.

Ultraviolet radiation ozone generator

The ozone is generated when the air was irradiated by ultraviolet whose wavelength is under 200nm. When oxygen molecule was collected enough ultraviolet energy, it will split into two oxygen atoms which will combine with other oxygen molecule to produce ozone molecule.  The productivity of ultraviolet radiation ozone generator is mainly determined by the ultraviolet wavelength and energy, the temperature, humidity and space that around ultraviolet light, the oxygen capacity of the air and  the air flow volume that went though  ozone generator. 

Corona discharge ozone generator

corona discharge ozone generatorLet the dry clean air and oxygen went through the discharge gap then oxygen molecules will be ionized into oxygen atoms under high-energy electromagnetic field. The continuous collision of oxygen atoms and oxygen molecules produced ozone. The productivity of corona discharge ozone generator is in a direct proportion to oxygen concentration in air, air dryness and power frequency. It is while in an inverse proportion to discharge gap and medium thickness. 



Ok, you may have kept ideas about which ozone generator you need now. In my next blog, i will introduce why ozone can destruct residual pesticide.
