MINERAL WATER TREATMENT BY OZONE

In bottled water operations, ozone can be applied at varying concentrations depending on which part of the process is receiving the ozone. Using the correct dosage amounts, as calculated by the supplementary equipment like a PID, allows for disinfection of all parts of the water process with no wasted energy. A well-programmed control system is key to this flexibility. The system needs to be able to monitor all three of the key processes in the ozone generation process to harness this efficiency. The feed gas, generation, and contacting must be controlled appropriately. The feed gas, which could be liquid oxygen vapor, compressed air, dried air, or concentrated oxygen, impacts the ozone production. They must be within specific standards (stated by the ozone generator manufacturer) and fed into the reactor cell at a specific flow rate and pressure in order to provide consistent and economic ozone production.
