Prototype of Ozone Generator for Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Some Kinetics and Performance Aspects (original) (raw)

The second generation of ozone generator has been designed to be low energy consumption, by using coaxial electrode configuration and working at moderately high AC voltage (about 15 kilovolts/50 -60 Hz). Other advantage of the equipment are its interesting performance, which can be used in atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature (around of 28 -30 o C), either for air compression treatment or preparation of ozone from technical oxygen without additional complicated cleaning or advanced gas treatment process. There are several interseting elements to be reported, such as: the role and relatively constricted range of operating temperature in corona discharge chamber as well as for ozone production or energy consumption during conversion of oxygen.
