Abstract

There are a number of small scale application fields of ozone, such as food conservation and/or storage in refrigerators, containers and storage rooms, deodorization in the production and living areas, protection against biohazards, bleaching of fabrics, etc. For these applications, miniaturization, ozone controllability and costdown of the ozonizer are the most essential points, whereas power efficiency is the most imporant factor in the case of a large scale ozonizer used in various industrial applications. It has been developed a novel sawtooth-to-cylinder type micro-ozonizer meeting above the three points by using a negative pulse corona discharge. As a result of the observations of pulse coronas affecting ozone generation, it is found that the maximum ozone concentration is generated at the pulse streamer coronas in both positive and negative case. The ozone concentration (20ppm/2l/min) generated by the negative pulse corona is about 2 times higher than that of the positive pulse corona, and could be controllable linearly by adjusting the dc input voltage of the [supply-inth ] cinventional small scale ozonizers. As a result, the present ozonizer is also very good to be used as a micro-ozonizer.
