Ozone is a tri-atomic molecule present in the stratosphere, which absorbs harmful UV radiations and very unstable in atmospheric conditions. Due to this, it reduces to oxygen within a very short span of 60 minutes in air and 20 minutes in water. This reduction reaction releases one atom of oxygen which acts as a very powerful oxidizing agent and, as a result, acts as a very powerful disinfectant. Nowadays, Ozone generators are being developed all over the world to manufacture Ozone on ground level and this ozone is being utilized in municipal drinking water treatment, bottled water treatment, air treatment, sewage and waste water treatment, swimming pool water treatment, cold storage rooms, and food processing industries etcetera.
Recently, major developments have been noticed in the manufacturing of Ozone Generators in Bangalore and their widespread usage across the city. Many companies like Southern Electronics Pvt. Ltd, ElTech, and Ozone Technologies and Systems Pvt. Ltd. have their bases in Bangalore and are contributing to the growing number of innovations. These Ozonators have an input voltage of about 200-250V and a feed gas of up to 20 LPM. Both the Feed gas outlet and Ozone Outlet are about ¼†Tube Collar. They come with special protections such as Input fuse, output over/under voltage fuse, and output over load etcetera. They also have an external shut down and a cooling system which complete the specifications of a well manufactured ozone generator. Excluding these, recent innovations have been noted in Ozone Generators in Bangalore. These innovations, classified under air and water treatment, are explained in more detail below.
Ozone Generators for Water Treatment
Ozone generators are used widely in the treatment of water. Ozone generators having capacities ranging from 10 g/hr to about 50 Kg/hr are now available for water treatment. These ozone generators are based on corona discharge technology. For higher capacity ozone generators, use of Liquid Oxygen is being used. Most ozone generators in Bangalore are now combined with other accessories as per customer requirement and individual applications. For example accessories like ozone injecting system, ozone contacting system, vent ozone destructor, and instrumentation systems are now attached to these generators for more efficiency.
Ozone Generators for Air Treatment
Ozone generators for air treatment with capacities ranging from 100 mg/h several hundred g/h are available in the markets of Bangalore. In-built mini air recirculation fans are widely used for oxygen generators having low capacities which take in ambient air and give out air containing a small percentage of ozone in it. For ozone generators with higher capacity built-in mini oil free air compressors are present which give out very low concentration ozone through PTFE tubes. The main accessory offered for application of ozone in air is an ambient Ozone monitor.
Excluding these, companies in Bangalore have come up with solutions to make Ozonators which are more eco-friendly, economical and have accessories pertaining to individual requirements, Ozone Generators have a large and competitive market in Bangalore, which paves way its fast and efficient development in the future.
