Ozone Generators for Research and Industrial Applications

Ozone has become a standard medium in many different research areas. It is extensively used in chemical laboratories of institutes, universities and all kind of chemical, pharmaceutical, biological and medical research institutes. Further applications are increasingly environmental research, food processing, drinking water and waste water treatment, food processing plastics and packaging industries as well.

The ozone production is based on the principle of “silent electrical discharge”.

The electrical discharge is caused by an electrical alternating field which is generated between two concentric tube electrodes with an interferric space gap for oxygenous gas throughput and a dielectric made of glass or ceramics. Thus part of the amount of oxygen is converted to ozone. Our recently development discharge tubes are made of stainless steel and have special ceramic electrodes. Thus the necessary operating voltage can be reduced significantly.
