Not deadly (I read somewhere that no casualty has ever been attributed to ozone), but it's very painful if you inhale too much of it, very much like inhaling bleach, no wonder it has a similar effect on microorganisms. How is the ozone laden air pressurized in the industrial units you're using, air pump upstream of the ozone generation I imagine? And what's the operating principle of the O3 generator itself, is it the AC operated glass tube type? > Somewhere lurking in the back of my mind is an idea for using O6 as a > "grease" to slide the O3 > into the water molecule..

Very few materials are ozone resistant Richard. Have you checked the ozone resistance of this particular PE? Also some materials catalyze ozone destruction (reversal to O2), such materials in your ozonized air circuit would result in not much ozone reaching the water you want to treat.

We have some experience in industrial size ozone generating systems in the 1000PPD and above range. The problems, the maintenance and the trouble mixing ozone beg for better technology. It seems that microwave may have some application considering the huge transformer banks required to boost voltage for the present technology, plus the problems with drying the air or the dangers of using pure oxy. Ozone gas is so stubborn that it resists mixing with water, the residual properties are extremely short lived and it is deadly. Takes the finger nail polish off my nails <grin> Somewhere lurking in the back of my mind is an idea for using O6 as a "grease" to slide the O3 into the water molecule.. I know, Yes , I know it can't be done because O6 may not be O6.. hmmm. But if it is.. and it can be "borrowed" while it's extremely short life is around to argue the point.. it may be possible to " fold" the two into water before O6 catches on .. by using a form of velocity shear upwards to 150f/s periphical velocity of a parabolic segment shaped "knife". We have been successful using this method for oxidation systems but O3 alone doesn't want to play fair. Microwave may be the trigger to generate O3 and O6 in the actual water process stream and have the mixing as a function of the O3 generating process. We have had our Gasmastrrr units returned for service that have the UHMW rotating member shot with electro-chem pitting that is a form of SL cavitation. Ultra high molecular weight polyethelene "does not pit".. we all know that. Richard
