What is OZONE?

Ozone (O3) is a natural element and is readily found in nature. O2

O3

Ozone is a very powerful disinfectant Destroying 99.99% of: bacteria, viruses, fungi, spores, protozoa, yeast, cysts, algae….

O

Ozone (O3) is composed of 3 Atoms of oxygen

What is OZONE?

► Ozone is 3 Atoms of oxygen► The world 3rd most powerful oxidizer

► Ozone is suicidal in a way:Ozone destroys contaminants and revert back to normal oxygen

1.27 0.93

Bromine (Br2) 1.09 0.80

Ozone is 1.5 times more powerful than chlorine and 3000 times faster acting than chlorine

Where ozone can be found?

Ozone is naturally produced in the atmosphere by lighting discharges

Ozone is also produced from sun’s ultra-violet rays in our upper atmosphere producing the ozone layer

How is ozone Created industrially?

O3 Attacks Viruses, Bacteria,Mold, Fungi, pollution, Contaminants

Normal Oxygen molecule O2 present in the air

Applied energy splits O2 into Atomic Oxygen

Atomic Oxygen O1 connects with O2 and O3 is formed

O3 is very Unstable and Start to performs Oxidation

O3 will revert back to O2 after the oxidation

Ozone is produced by applying electrical energy to split the oxygen molecules Ozone is produced on spot by ozone generators

No chemicals Added

Ozone is immediately consumed as it reverts back to normal oxygen

CHLORINE

DISINFECT

Creates Toxic By-

Products

Remain in water or on

food

Chlorine: the Traditional Disinfectant

Chlorine reacts with natural organics present in water to form chemical by-products

Chlorine is an effective disinfectant, But:

Chlorine chemical by-products are highly toxic, carcinogenic and very hard to remove (ex: Trihalomethanes formation or THM)

Chlorine effects on Health:

■ Exposure to chlorinated water can triggers Asthma

■ Chlorinated water increases Cholesterol/HDL ratio

■ Chlorinated water increases the risk of bladder Cancer

■ Chlorinated water significantly increases Dermatitis episodes

■ Repeated exposure to chlorine in air or water adversely affect the immune system, the blood, the heart, and the respiratory system of animals.

World Health Organization, Geneva 2003:

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) USA:

Chlorine effects on Environment:

Chlorine causes environmental harm at low levels. Chlorine is especially harmful to organisms living in water and in soil. (EPA – Environmental Protection Agency USA)

■ Chlorine damages the gills of fish, inhibiting their ability to absorb oxygen

■ Chlorine affects the behavioral changes of migratory movement of fish

■ Chlorine creates reproductive problems in animals

■ Tiny concentrations of chlorine kills many aquatic life-forms

Ozone effect on Health:

Ozone is 1.5 times more powerful than chlorine and 3000 times faster acting

Ozone safely reverts back to Normal oxygen

OZONE NO chemicals

Residue

SAFE & BENEFICIAL for

Health

Degrades pesticides, Herbicides and contaminants present on food or water

NO chemical by-product

formation

DISINFECT

Ozone is 100% chemical-free

Removes Chemical contaminants (including Pharmaceutical contaminants)

Improves Biodegradation of contaminants

True destruction of pollution

(the only technology to truly destruct contaminants)

OZONE

Ozone effect on Environment:

Water treated with Ozone can be easily recycled

Brief History of Ozone

Is the application of ozone approved by regulatory agencies?

“Ozone may be safely used in the treatment, storage, and processing of foods, including meat and poultry.”

“ Processed Food disinfected with ozone are permitted to be labeled as “Organic” or “Made with Organic”

Ozone is also Approved by:

ozone in drinking water treatment

► Complete removal of Odor & Color

► Taste Enhancement

► Degradation of pesticides, pharmaceutical residue and other contaminants

► NO environmental or health endangering by-products

► More powerful than traditional water treatment (chlorine) in disinfecting; destruction of microorganisms even the resistant bacteria, viruses & parasites

Growth of USA Ozone Drinking water treatment plants

Los Angeles the largest drinking water treatment plant in the world, uses ozone for water treatment.Europe:

652 Municipal Plants

USA & Canada: 368 Municipal plants

Ozone in water bottling

Over 90% of bottling water companies in USA and Europe use Ozone for disinfection of water & bottles.

WHY?

Because till now there is no disinfectant or sanitizing agent that can be mixed in with the beverage without having an adverse effect on the organoleptic properties of the beverage.

Some multi-national companies that uses OZONE for bottling beverages

Ozone in Waste water treatment

▶ Degrades Agriculture

chemicals

▶ Degrades industrial Waste

▶ Able to treat Complex

Industrial waste

▶ Dramatically Increase filters

life

▶ The most efficient system

▶ True destruction of toxic contaminants; other systems only Displace pollution whereas Ozone really destruct toxic contaminants

If an organic is resistant to oxidation by ozone it will be resistant to oxidation by other oxidants (Rice & Browning, 1980)

Growth of JAPAN Ozone wastewater treatment plants

In 2008 the city of Montreal announced that it will be the 1st city in the world to disinfect all of its wastewater using ozone. The total projected cost was $200 million.

Ozone in Waste water treatment

Some multi-national companies that uses OZONE for Wastewater

treatment

Ozone sanitize food, leaving no chemical trace behind.

Ozone Reduces pesticides and other

contaminants on Food.

Ozone doesn’t affect the organoleptic (taste, texture, color & smell) properties of foods

Reduce chilling cost

Reduce water consumption

Reduce waste water fees.

Effect of Ozone on water consumption in food processing industries

Ozone reduce water consumption up to 90%.

The same water is recycled back into the system and is converted back to ozonated water.chlorine water needs to be replaced every 2-3 hours; chlorinated water is wasted

Ozone effect on produce:

21 days of life extension of fruits & vegetables

50 to 80% extension of fish and beef

Reduce weight loss of fruits and vegetables

Ozone Uses in the food industry

- Seafood industry- Poultry Industry- Beef Industry- Produce industry- Processed food- Ready to eat food (Sandwiches, salad,…)- Transport of produce- Food catering & restaurants- ….anywhere there is a food disinfection need

Ozone in Agriculture ■ Increase oxygen in the soil by 3 times

■ Increase roots depth ; Greater uptake of nutrients

■ Decrease in use of fertilizers

■ The Pure oxygen enrich the soil creating a better growing environment

Increase in harvested produce quality

Increase roots depth of tomato

Ozone Water Irrigation

■ Eliminates Sodium Build-up■ Neutralize Bicarbonates, Salts & sodium■ Stop bicarbonates from binding to light metals such as calcium & iron

After 67 Days

Increase in vital metals biologically available to the soil (increase calcium, iron & Magnesium levels in soil)

Ozone in Agriculture Ozone water in Animal farms & zoos

■ Improve water quality without any chemicals (high in oxygen)

■ Improve performance & recovery time during races and training

■ Animal wash without harmful chemicals that many animals are allergic to

■ Disinfect animal rest place

▶ Ozone Greatly decreases the risk of infection

▶ The converted oxygen (Dissolved Oxygen) is beneficial for fish

▶ Ozonated water can be easily recycled into the ponds

Ozone in Fish farmingWhile farmers nowadays always are looking for ways to increase production, the easiest way (and less costly way) is to increase the numbers of fish in a given volume. This increase in fish density will proportionally increase the risk of Infections

Ozone Air Treatment • Ozone is used as a Shock-treatment in its gaseous form to

decontaminate and provide a perfectly clean environment (no bad odors, no microorganisms etc…)

• US army use ozone to neutralize weaponized Anthrax

• Traditional use for hospital disinfection is chemicals use

Disadvantages of using chemicals for room decontamination:

- High cost of chemicals- Wiping with chemicals requires much work and is unsuitable for

walls, curtains and ceiling- Retention of an unpleasant disinfectant odor in the treated room

after decontamination- Potential inhalation of chemicals by hospital staff

Ozone Air Treatment

Ozone can be used for Hospitals & Hotel rooms decontamination- It is quick (15 min), easy and much more powerful

Ozone Air Treatment

AMA (American Medical Association): 50% of all illnesses could be attributed to indoor air pollution

Air Pollution

EPA (Environmental Protection Agency – USA):Indoor air pollution can reach as much as 200 times as outside pollution

OZONE can easily provide indoor clean pollution free environment

Center of disease control – USA:HOSPITAL ACQUIRED INFECTIONS- Is the 4th leading cause of death in the USA- More than 100,000 people will die each year as a
