Abstract: An ozone generator is disclosed. The ozone generator includes a housing forming a tubular-shaped shell. A tubular ceramic electrode is suspended within the tubular-shaped shell of the housing. An end of the electrode protrudes from the tubular-shaped shell of the housing. The electrode, as suspended, forms a annular space of uniform width between the shell and the electrode, which space serves as the discharge gap. A Teflon.TM. retainer grips the end of the electrode protruding from the tubular-shaped shell of the housing. The retainer connects with the housing to maintain the electrode fixed in position within the tubular-shaped shell.

Abstract: An ozone generator includes an inner electrode formed of a mass of helical windings through which an elongate electrical conductor extends. The elongate conductor is preferably a metal strip having opposing rows of sawtooth projections extending outwardly from opposing side edges of the strip. The metal strip also preferably has a generally sinuous shape in longitudinal cross-section. An outer electrode is separated from the inner electrode by a dielectric tube. The inner and outer electrodes produce ozone gas using an electrical corona discharge in the presence of an oxygen containing gas. A second tube surrounds the first dielectric tube to capture ozone generated at the outer electrode. A pair of endcaps directs gas flow adjacent the outer conductor and through the inner conductor.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a frame carrying a process tank, ozone generating tubes, a venturi, and an infusion chamber for treating water with ozone. A pump circulates water from the process tank and through the venturi to the infusion chamber. The infusion chamber is connected immediately downstream from the venturi. The infusion chamber has a predetermined pressure to produce a head space and thereby generate a relatively large number of bubbles of relatively small size to enhance the mass transfer of ozone into the water. A length of tubing is connected downstream from the infusion chamber to enhance the contact time between the ozone and the contaminants. An ozone generator tube including an inner electrode formed of a mass of helical windings produces a high concentration of ozone from a cooled air supply.

Abstract: A corona discharge generator is disclosed, and includes a central tube of electrically conducting material circumscribed by a glass tube having an electrically conducting coating on its exterior surface and being sealed to the exterior surface of the central tube at opposites ends of the glass tube. The central tube is blocked within the longitudinal extent of the glass tube, and provided with holes between the interior of the central tube and the annular enclosure formed between the central tube and the glass tube, toward the opposite ends of the glass tube. Oxygen-containing gas flows along the central tube, out a first hole or holes to the enclosure, along the enclosure and back through one or more holes into the central tube on the downstream side of the blockage. A pulsed electrical signal is applied to the two tubular electrodes to effect a corona discharge within the enclosure, thereby producing ozone. An electrical circuit is disclosed to provide such a pulse signal of variable frequency whereby the rate of production of ozone may be selected.

Abstract: In an internally cooled tubular ozonizer, there is built into the interior of the glass tube (5) a cooling tube (9) whose outer diameter is only slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the glass tube (5). The annular gap left is filled up with a temperature-resistant casting compound (10) which conducts heat well. In the case of a synthetic resin casting compound (10), the cooling tube (9) is connected galvanically via contact springs (11) to the metal layer (8), serving as the inner electrode, on the inner wall of the glass tube (5). The heat transfer from the cooling agent in the cooling tube (8) to the glass tube (5) is not impeded by the casting compound (10). Temperature stresses between the glass tube (5) and the cooling tube (9) are largely reduced, as a result of which the operational safety of the ozonizer is increased, especially at fairly high power densities.

Abstract: A method for producing an ozone gas and an apparatus for producing the same are disclosed, in which a gas to be ozonized is fed to an ozonizer having a dielectric interposed between a pair of electrodes which are respectively connected to a high-frequency high-voltage power supply and thereby an ozone gas can be produced efficiently. The density of the gas to be ozonized which is fed to a silent discharge generating region in the ozonizer is made higher than the density of the same gas in the standard state. To that end, the temperature at the silent discharge generating region is lowered, and/or the pressure at the same region is increased.
