Abstract: APPARATUS AND METHOD ARE DISCLOSED FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY ELECTRICAL CONVERSION OF OXYGEN TO OZONE. AN OXYGEN-CONTAINING GAS IS PASSED UPWARDLY THROUGH A PARTICULATE DIELETRIC CONTAINED BETWEEN SPACED ELECTRODE SURFACES, WHEREBY A FLUIDIZED BED IS ESTABLISHED CONSISTING OF A SUSPENSION OF SAID DIELECTRIC PARTICLES IN THE STREAMING GAS. MEANS ARE PRESENT FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY MAINTAINING A SILENT ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE ACROSS THE SPACED ELECTRODES AND THROUGH THE FLUIDIZED BED. THE BED ACTS AS A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE HEAT SINK AND ALSO PROMOTES THE PRESNECE OF HIGH-FREQUENCY COMPONENTS IN THE CURRENT WAVES PASSING BETWEEN ELECTRODES, AS A RESULT OF WHICH INCREASED ELECTRICAL EFFICIENCY AND INCREASED OZONE OUTPUT IS ENABLED IN THE CONVERSION PROCESS.

Abstract: Sewage effluent from a primary treatment plant is initially pumped to a vacuum deaerator for removal of dissolved air and hence nitrogen, from the effluent stream. This stream, deaerated as required, is joined with a stream of recycled activated sludge and a stream of pure oxygen in quantity sufficient to meet the ''''biological oxygen demand'''' (BOD) of the combined effluent and recycled activated sludge. The confluence is pumped through an underground pipeline reactor having a static mixer for enhancing contact between the oxygen, aerobic bacteria and organic pollutants. The reactor stream BOD is progressively reduced to the required level at the reactor outlet. A downstream clarifier separates the reactor activated sludge from treated waste water and separated sludge in part is returned for recycling to the inlet of the reactor. The clear waste effluent from the clarifier is sent to tertiary treatment units or to receiving waters.
