Abstract
An ozone water purification system is disclosed. In this system, ozonated water flow proceeds alternately upwardly and downwardly through a series of vertical tubes. In order to disturb the laminar flow within the tubes, several types of turbulence-inducing devices may be mounted within the tubes. Such a mounting may be made so that the devices are removable for cleaning. In addition, the tubes may be circularly arranged so as to conserve space.
Claims1
A water sanitizing system comprising:
- An ozone generator,
- a mixing device coupled to provide ozone from said ozone generator to a flow of water,
- a series of vertical tubes coupled so that water flow therethrough is alternately upward and downward, said series of tubes receiving said flow of water with bubbles containing ozone therein,
- Turbulence-inducing devices disposed within said tubes,
- A bubble separator for receiving said flow of water from said tubes, for removing gasses from said flow of water.
