The use of ozone for disinfection and water treatment
Additional advantages of ozone
- Reduction of disinfection by-products: unlike chlorine, ozone does not produce harmful by-products such as trihalomethanes (thm) and haloacetic acids (haa), which are harmful to health.
- Increased pathogen removal efficiency: ozone is more effective against a wide range of microorganisms, including chlorine-resistant protozoa such as giardia and cryptosporidium.
- Improved water clarity: ozone helps to coagulate and precipitate suspended particles, improving water clarity and aesthetic quality.
- Degradation of organic contaminants: Is effective in removing complex organic compounds, including pesticides, herbicides and other industrial pollutants.
How does ozone work in disinfection?
Mechanisms of action
Ozone (o₃) disinfects water through various mechanisms, which ensure effective removal of contaminants and microorganisms:
- Direct oxidation: ozone attacks and decomposes the cell walls of microorganisms, rapidly inactivating them.
- Radical formation: in water, ozone can generate free radicals (such as the hydroxyl radical) that have a very high oxidizing power, which increases the effectiveness of disinfection.
- Removal of biofilms: ozone can penetrate and destroy biofilms, which are protective layers that some microorganisms form on surfaces in contact with water.
Application process
- Ozone generation: using a corona discharge generator, ozone is produced from oxygen present in the air or pure oxygen.
- Injection into the water: ozone is dissolved in water by means of a diffuser or venturi injector, ensuring uniform distribution.
- Contact time: it is crucial to keep ozone in contact with water long enough to ensure complete and effective disinfection.
- Control and monitoring: ozone concentrations in the water should be monitored to ensure that levels are safe and effective for disinfection.
