Ozopro Ozonators: Safe, Efficient, Affordable

Ozone technology has made its mark on water purification since the beginning of the century when it was first used in a town water filtration plant in France. The oxidizing power of ozone is almost twice that of chlorine and about five times that of oxygen, making it particularly effective in removing organics and precipitating heavy metals.

OZOPRO ozone generators feature Corona Lamp technology to produce ozone concentrations up to 10% by mass. Diffusion methods such as porous stone, venturi and direct injection can be tailored to the process application. Systems are air-cooled and can be run on dry Air feed or Oxygen, making for some of the most economical ozonators on the market.

A number of variables affect ozone production: maximum ozone concentrations can be accomplished using pure Oxygen feed instead of dry Air. Ozone concentration in water is maximized by using advanced diffusion techniques optimizing gas-liquid contact. Alkalinity, pH, organics content and suspended solids in the water affect the effectiveness of the ozone. Pre-filtration is often used to reduce the ozone demand. In some cases, post-treatment is used to remove ozone residual and ozone by-products. Coarse filtration combined with activated carbon produce excellent results in most cases.

Ozone technology has become a recent trend in the pulp and paper industry as an efficient and environmentally safe way to bleach pulp. It is not usually associated with by-products and naturally reverts to oxygen(O2), meaning it has no odor or taste associated with it. Typically chlorine is the choice for bleaching. Though effective, it is potentially dangerous; by-products from the bleaching processes are corrosive to equipment, and toxic to humans and animals.

Durpro's engineering team can design systems to fit the specific needs of your application and has both the expertise in water filtration and equipment to supply both pre-treatment and post-treatment solutions.
