Abstract: A unique combination of one and preferably a pair of gas drying units for drying oxygen containing gas to be ozonized and a corona discharge ozone generating unit is provided by a vortex tube unit having an inlet for receiving dried air to be ozonized, a cool air outlet carrying the slow moving molecules of the gas to the inlet of the ozone generating unit and a warm air outlet connected through passageways extending to openings in the drying units for circulating warm air for drying saturated gas drying units. Where two drying units are provided, the air to be dried and ozonized is preferably alternately automatically fed to the inputs of the two drying units, and the warm air outlet of the vortex tube unit is alternately fed through the air drying unit so the drying unit which at a given instant is not receiving air to be dried is itself being dried by warm de-moisturizing air.
