Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus 1 for the treatment of air comprising a low power corona discharge ozone generator 5,6 inside a chamber 9 having an inlet 2 and an outlet 7, and at least one air flow impeller 3 for inducing a flow of air through the chamber 9. The ozone generator 5,6 is formed and arranged for generating a restricted concentration of ozone, within an inactivating zone 10 contained within the chamber 9, through which the air flow is passed. The restricted concentration is sufficient to inactivate airborne pollutant material entrained in the air flow, yet decays sufficiently outside the inactivating zone so that the concentration of ozone in the cleaned air expelled from the apparatus 1 is at a physiologically acceptable level without the use of an ozone decomposition catalyzer.
Abstract:
An ozone generator includes a dielectric medium with a single continuous wire electrode forming an active corona element being operatively mounted relative to the dielectric medium. A counter-electrode forms a conducting medium in intimate contact with the dielectric medium. Ozone is produced by applying a high frequency, sinusoidal high voltage circuit that is operatively connected to the single continuous wire and the counter-electrode and supplying a voltage thereto.

Abstract:
The system and method utilizes an apparatus for generating ozone having, preferably, a first electrode positioned within a channel in a second electrode. The first electrode is a tube made of dielectric material, having at least one electron gun positioned proximate an end thereof for firing electrons. In electrical communication with the electron gun is a rod, maintained in a tube also made of dielectric material, which acts to maintain a constant energy level through the length of the rod. Within the first electrode is an inert gas which, upon the firing of the electron gun, is formed into a plasma. When a feed gas (generally air) is passed between the first and second electrodes, the electrons and plasma cause the formation of ozone. The treated feed gas is then injected into the water to be treated. Preferably, the water is then centrifuged before introduction in the cooling tower system.
