FLUIDO3 Ozono

Properties of Ozone

Ozone gas ( O3 ) is formed as a natural process when oxygen is exposed to high electrical voltage. It is an enriched Oxygen ( O2 ) molecule in an unstable gaseous form that reacts rapidly, returning to Oxygen form, leaving no harmful residue.

What makes ozone so effective is its high oxidation potential (2.07 V), that is, its ability to react with other substances. The oxidation potential of ozone can be measured by redox potential, being about five times more oxidizing than oxygen and about twice as oxidizing as chlorine

Disinfectant properties of ozone in water

The high oxidizing power of Ozone intervenes in the vital integrity of bacterial cells, fungi, protozoa, and viruses by damaging cell walls and breaking down their underlying macromolecular components.

Its broad-spectrum action is used for disinfection and treatment of primary and wastewater.
