Abstract
A method for non-destructive compression of a reactive gas such as ozone employs a liquid used as a compressant or sealant in a compressor where the liquid is substantially free of elements which decompose the gas. Provision is also made for extraction of heat of compression absorbed by the liquid of the compressant or sealant, for addition of chilled and pH adjusted liquid, and for addition of acid, if necessary.
Claims12
A method for non-destructively compressing ozone gas, comprising the steps of:
- providing a compressor having liquid means for compressing said ozone, and for internally sealing said compressor, said liquid means comprising water in which the pH has been adjusted to a value of less than 7;
- feeding said ozone gas to an inlet port of said compressor;
- compressing said ozone gas;
- and
- extracting compressed ozone gas from a discharge port of said compressor for use in a subsequent process.
A method for non-destructively compressing ozone gas, comprising the steps of:
- providing a compressor having liquid means for compressing said ozone gas and for internally sealing said compressor, said liquid means comprising deionized water;
- feeding said ozone gas to an inlet port of said compressor;
- compressing said ozone gas;
- and
- extracting compressed ozone gas from a discharge port of said compressor for use in a subsequent process.
A method for non-destructively compressing ozone gas, comprising the steps of:
- providing a compressor having liquid means for compressing said ozone and for internally sealing said compressor, said liquid means comprising demineralized water;
- feeding said ozone gas to an inlet port of said compressor;
- compressing said ozone gas;
- and
- extracting compressed ozone gas from a discharge port of said compressor for use in a subsequent process.
