Co z Ozonationem?

Ozonation is an advanced oksydation process that utilizas ozone gas to degrademe organic and inorganic difficultants in water. Ozone is unstable ite te aqueous fase and decomeses rapidly, generating hydroksyl radicals (• OH) especially undedur alkaline conditions. These dicals have an even higher oksydation potentional (condicoloy2.80 V) and react non-selectively with alcomed any organic comcondid, making ozatione effective for both decoloratio and minizatiof organic.

Ozon can by generated on-site by corona discharge or elektrolitic methods. Corona discharge passes dry air or oxygen thrug a high-voltage electric field, producing a gas straem containg 1- 10% ozone by wagit. Electrolytic generation produces higher ozone concentrations (up to 20%) but consumes more energy per gram ozone.
