Do ozone generator really work ?

what is ozone ?
Ozone (O3) is an allotrope of oxygen. It is a light blue gas with a special odor. Its molecular structure is triangular, with a bond angle of 116°, its density is 1.5 times that of oxygen, and its solubility in water is 10 times that of oxygen.

How does ozone work ?

Ozone is a strong oxidant, its redox potential in water is 2.07V, second only to fluorine (2.5V), its oxidation capacity is higher than that of chlorine (1.36V) and chlorine dioxide (1.5V), and it can destroy the decomposing bacteria. The cell wall quickly diffuses into the cell, oxidatively decomposes the glucose oxidase necessary for oxidizing glucose inside the bacteria, and can also directly interact with bacteria and viruses to destroy cells, RNA, and decompose DNA ( Polymers such as DNA, RNA,proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides destroy the metabolic and reproductive processes of bacteria.
 
The killing of bacteria by ozone is caused by the disruption of the cell membrane. This process is called cell dissociation because the cytoplasm is comminuted in water and cells cannot be regenerated under dissipated conditions. It should be pointed out that,unlike hypochlorous acid disinfectants, the bactericidal ability of ozone is not affected by the change of pH value and ammonia, and its bactericidal capacity is 600-3000 times larger than that of chlorine. Its sterilization and disinfection effects occur almost instantaneously. When the ozone concentration is 0.3-2mg/L in water, bacteria can be killed within 0.5-1min

1. Viruses Ozone has been shown to have a very strong killing effect on viruses. For example, at a concentration of 0.05-0.45 mg/L ozone, the Poloi virus loses its activity within 2 minutes.
2. The cysts were completely removed at a concentration of 0.3 mg/L ozone for 2.4 minutes.
3. Spores Due to the protection of the spore coat, it is 10-15 times more resistant to ozone than the growing bacteria.
4. Fungi Candida albicans and penicillium can be killed.
5. Parasites Schistosoma mansoni was killed after 3 min.


REPORT FOR NALAISIS

ozone safety : 

1. The Ministry of Health of China stipulates that the ozone safety standard is 0.15ppm
2 The American standard stipulates that personnel can work for 8 hours at a concentration of 0.1
ppm.
3 The International Ozone Association stipulates that professional indoor applications of ozone
work at a concentration of 0.1ppm for 10 hours
4 The concentration that causes a certain reaction The concentration that causes a certain
reaction of the personnel is 0.5-1ppm, the allowable contact time is 1.5 hours, and the long
time will feel dry mouth discomfort
5 Concentration in 1-4ppm will cause people to cough, allow contact time for 1 hour
6 Concentration between 4-10ppm will cause a strong cough, allow contact time for 20 minutes
7 The half-life of ozone is 20-50 minutes, and it will eventually decompose into oxygen, which
will not cause residual pollution to food
