How to distinguish the types of ozone generators

The ozone generator is a device used to produce ozone gas. It is widely used in drinking water, sewage, industrial oxidation, food processing and preservation, pharmaceutical synthesis, space sterilization and other fields.

Ozone is produced by natural or artificial conditions. The natural condition is when thunder strikes, high voltage electricity is generated, and then the oxygen molecules in the air are decomposed into oxygen atoms under high voltage. Three oxygen atoms combine to produce ozone. The artificial production methods can be divided into chemical method, electrolysis method, ultraviolet irradiation method and silent discharge method.

1. High-voltage discharge type: This type of ozone generator uses a high-voltage current of a certain frequency to generate a high-voltage corona electric field, causing the oxygen molecules in or around the electric field to undergo an electrochemical reaction to produce ozone. It has the characteristics of large output, mature technology, stable performance, long service life, and wide application.

2. Ultraviolet ozone generator: It uses ultraviolet rays of a specific wavelength to irradiate oxygen molecules to decompose oxygen molecules to generate ozone. This type of ozone generator has a small application range, low output, and short life.

3. Electrolytic ozone generator: It produces ozone by electrolyzing pure water. This type of ozone generator can produce ozone water, has low manufacturing cost, and is simple to use and maintain, but has a short service life .
