Ozone Technology

High-performance ozone systems delivering superior efficiency, reliability, and control for industrial, municipal, and aquaculture applications.

What Is Ozone Technology?

Ozone technology is a process used in water treatment to remove bacteria, viruses, organic contaminants, and unwanted compounds without leaving harmful chemical residues.

Ozone (O₃) is one of the strongest oxidizing agents available. When introduced into water, it reacts instantly with pollutants, breaking them down into simpler and safer components. This makes ozone a highly effective and environmentally friendly solution for modern water treatment systems.

Unlike traditional chemical treatments, ozone does not accumulate in the water. It naturally decomposes back into oxygen, making it a sustainable choice for industries that require both performance and environmental compliance.

How Ozone Works in Water Treatment

Ozone works through a process called oxidation. When ozone is dissolved in water, it reacts with contaminants at a molecular level.

This process allows ozone to:

  • Destroy bacteria and viruses
  • Break down organic pollutants
  • Remove color, odor, and taste compounds
  • Eliminate micropollutants and pharmaceutical residues

Because of its high oxidation potential, ozone reacts significantly faster than traditional disinfectants. This enables shorter treatment times and more efficient system design.

In many applications, ozone is used both as a primary treatment method and as a polishing step to ensure consistent water quality.

Key Benefits of Ozone Technology

Ozone technology offers several advantages compared to conventional water treatment methods:

High Oxidation Strength

Ozone is significantly stronger than chlorine, making it effective against resistant microorganisms.

No Chemical Residues

Ozone decomposes into oxygen, leaving no harmful by-products in the water.

Improved Water Quality

Removes taste, odor, color, and organic contaminants.

Reduced Chemical Usage

In many systems, ozone reduces or eliminates the need for additional chemicals.

Sustainable Solution

Supports environmentally friendly water treatment processes.

Types of Ozone Generation Technologies

There are several methods for generating ozone:

Corona Discharge

The most widely used and efficient method for industrial applications. It uses electrical discharge to convert oxygen into ozone.

Cold Plasma Technology

A more advanced variation of corona discharge.

UV Ozone Generation

Used in smaller-scale applications but less efficient for industrial use.

Primozone systems are based on advanced corona discharge and optimized reactor design, enabling high ozone concentration and high gas pressure.

What is ozone technology used for?

Ozone technology is used for water treatment, disinfection, and removal of organic contaminants in industrial, municipal, and aquaculture systems.

How is ozone generated?

Ozone is generated by passing oxygen through an electrical discharge, typically using corona discharge technology.

Is ozone safe?

Yes, when properly controlled within a system. Ozone decomposes quickly into oxygen and does not remain in treated water.

Primozone technology has more than 7 times the production capacity at higher ozone concentrations than competitive technology. We provide both high ozone concentration and high ozone capacity/output.

The high ozone concentration is guaranteed independently of ozone output. Going from peak demand at 100 % output to minimum demand at 10 %, the oxygen consumption will correspondingly drop to 10 %. In other words, the ozone concentration is constant.
