Ozone Generators for Commercial and Industrial Applications

If you manage a large food manufacturing facility or any other business that requires a way to keep your equipment clean and sterile, ozone generation may be just the solution you have been looking for! In this article, we will explore why large commercial and industrial businesses use ozone generators, and how it can help with quality control, for the health and safety of your consumers.

What is a commercial ozone generator?

Ozone generators are ozone-producing devices, frequently referred to as an ozone machine, that generates ozone gas. Ozone is the tri-atomic form of oxygen and is a highly effective organic disinfectant. Commercial Industries are now able to produce a more desirable product, with the use of ozone, by controlling bacteria, moulds, and other microbes. These harmful microorganisms are destroyed by means of the oxidation process and subsequently, the microorganisms never build up resistance. As they are killed on contact with an effective rate of 99.9999%. The use of commercial ozone generators has valuable benefits in various applications by manufacturing significant amounts of ozone. Which is very effective in sterilizing food processing equipment or even fruits and vegetables without the use of chemicals.

How do ozone generators work?

Ozone is much more reactive than oxygen giving it the ability to destroy contaminants on contact. An ozone generator converts oxygen into ozone by breaking apart oxygen molecules into individual atoms and then joins each oxygen atom to other oxygen molecules. Ozone generators accomplish this by means of the silent corona discharge method or ultraviolet radiation.

An electrical discharge takes place inside a corona discharge ozone generator causing the breakdown of oxygen molecules forming two single oxygen atoms. The elemental oxygen atom then attaches to other oxygen molecules producing ozone. Corona discharge can generate high ozone concentrations over a broad range of output.

Industrial ozone generators can also produce ozone using UV light in a similar way as done naturally with the sun’s ultraviolet light radiation in the ozone layer of the world. UV ozone generators use ultraviolet light radiation to cause a disruption within an oxygen molecule resulting in singular oxygen atoms. The elemental oxygen atom then combines with a stable oxygen molecule producing ozone.

Ozone is highly effective in sanitation due to its capability of going everywhere that air can go, allowing hard-to-reach areas to be disinfected and purified by destroying any odour-causing gases and harmful bacteria.

What are ozone generators used for?

Ozone sanitation provides a solution for industries that need large-scale cleansing with a safe non-toxic application such as wineries and breweries, healthcare facilities, food processing, and water treatment industries.

Particularly relating to wineries and breweries, ozone sanitation is not only cost-effective but conserves water and energy and is environmentally friendly. Disinfecting by means of ozone increase the longevity of fermentation tanks and barrels and reduces the amount of mould and bacteria significantly. This is a perfect solution to keep tanks and other equipment sanitized and ready for the next batch of alcohol.

Similarly, using an industrial ozone generator in the food processing industry is also cost-effective and safe. It also safeguards the integrity of fruits of vegetables by not imposing vigorous washing methods. Leaving no toxic residue, oxidation is also stronger than chlorine and decontaminates a wider spectrum of microorganisms.

Increased attention has been placed on the safety of fruits and vegetables especially with consumption dramatically increasing in recent years. Ozone destroys pesticide and chemical residues making it a viable candidate as a sanitizing agent to control food pathogens. Consumers can purchase products with confidence that the food is being kept contaminate-free by means of ozone sanitation.

Thanks to the advanced technology of these machines, ozone generators are also effective as air purifiers with pungent odour removals such as tobacco smoke, mould and mildew odours, food odours, and garbage odours improving indoor air quality. Ozone destroys the unpleasant gases and molecules that lead to unwelcome smells acting as a chemical-free air purifier.

In addition to the above applications, industrial ozone generators are effective at purifying water. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent that can be used for water purification.

How do I choose an ozone generator for my facility?

Various factors deserve consideration when selecting the ozone generator best equipped for the intended industrial ozone application.

Experience:

Various manufacturers are creating ozone generators, but the Nebula Ozone company has real experience in the industry and can ensure safety and assurance.

Coverage Area:

Take into account the amount of ozone output needed to generate based on the size of the facility. The area defines the range of the ozone generator and the effectiveness of its ozone output. Industrial ozone generators are ideal for larger spaces and commercial spaces.

Capacity:

The capacity of the industrial ozone generator is its capability to generate and distribute ozone gas (grams per hour.) Commercial ozone generators have a higher capacity but will be determined by the ozone output and ozone concentration desired.

Service Life:

There is a wide range of ozone generators, and they vary according to each manufacturer. The life of the generator is measured in hours and factors in the capacity of use.

Ease of Use:

Purchase a generator that is easy to use and understand. Purchasing a turn-key ozone system provides a safe process and alleviates unnecessary headaches of installations.
