Ozone For Drinking Water

Ozone gas excellent disinfection and oxidation qualities has made it a widely used for drinking water which can be added at several points throughout the treatment system, such as during pre-oxidation, intermediate oxidation or final disinfection.

Ozone for drinking water has to be used as an Oxidant for Organic compounds,Odor and color removal in water Dosage varies depending upon various factors

Ozone has been shown to be effective in a variety of drinking water including: disinfection, color removal, iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) reduction, hydrogen sulfide removal, taste and odor reduction micro pollutant removal and improved filtration and flocculation of potable water.

Ozone can also reduce formation of disinfection by-products such as trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids.

Ozonation is effective for removal of difficult-to-treat pathogens such as giardia and cryptosporidium

For Industries ,Hotels and Residential buildings, the water supply is not always from the municipal corporation. To disinfect the water supplied to them by the tankers or boring wells, ozone is the most suitable choice

Applications Features

  • No harmful Disnfectant by-products (DBP)
  • Disinfection, i.e. killing of microorganisms (giardia lamblia /virus inactivation/elimination of cryptosporidia, and other contaminants
  • No changes in pH or Sensitivity
  • Produces By atmospheric concentrated Oxygen hence Safer Disinfectant
  • Removal of odors and colors
  • No changes in taste and smell of treated water
  • Enhancement of the flocculation/coagulation-decantation process
  • Most powerful oxidizer (Iron and manganese for effective filtration) (Hydrogen sulfur or other sulfur based compounds)
  • Degradation of pesticides, pharmaceutical residues and other trace contamination
  • oxidation of organic and inorganic matter
Ozone Stage Ozone Dosage Ozone Residual Range
