Abstract
A method for treating a liquid (e.g. water) with a gas (e.g. air) containing ozone includes passing air through an corona discharge ozone generator to produce air containing ozone and introducing the air containing ozone into the liquid; and, periodically de-energizing the ozone generator and passing air through the ozone generator.
Claims18
A method for treating a liquid with a gas containing oxygen comprising the steps of:
- (a) passing the gas through an corona discharge ozone generator to produce gas containing ozone and introducing the gas containing ozone into the liquid;
- and,
- (b) periodically de-energizing the ozone generator and passing gas through the ozone generator while the ozone generator is de-energized.
A method for cooling a corona discharge ozone generator comprises:
- (a) passing a gas containing oxygen through the corona discharge ozone generator and energizing the ozone generator to produce gas containing ozone;
- and,
- (b) periodically de-energizing the ozone generator and passing gas through the ozone generator whereby the ozone generator is cooled.
