Principle of ozone sterilization
The sterilization class of ozone belongs to the biochemical oxidation reaction. Ozone oxidizes and decomposes the enzymes necessary to oxidize glucose within bacteria; it can also directly interact with bacteria and viruses, destroying their cells and ribonucleic acid, decomposing DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids and polysaccharides and other macromolecular polymers, so that the material metabolism of the bacterial growth and reproduction process has been destroyed; it can also penetrate the cellular membrane tissues, invading cell membranes and acting on the outer membrane lipoproteins and lipopolysaccharides within the cell, causing cell permeability aberrations, and leading to cell lysis and death. Cell permeability aberration, resulting in cell lysis and death, and the death of bacteria in the body of the genetic, parasitic species, parasitic virus particles, phage, mycoplasma and pyrogens (bacterial and viral metabolites, endotoxins), such as dissolution denaturation and inactivation. Ozone sterilization is ultimately reduced to oxygen, there is no toxic residue, so it is called 'non-polluting disinfectant'. It is not only on a variety of bacteria (including hepatitis virus, Escherichia coli, green bacillus and miscellaneous bacteria, etc.) has a very strong ability to kill, and to kill mold is also very effective. Throughout the aseptic technology on the microbial role of the principle can be divided into bacteriostatic, bactericidal and bacteriolytic three kinds, the application of ozone as a sterilizing agent belongs to the bacteriolytic.
Ozone is used for air sterilization or water disinfection are very effective, sterilization and no pollution.
Used for sterilization of water treatment, the best water concentration of 0.3ppm or more? If used for drinking water treatment must control the concentration of ozone between 0.3-1ppm for the best
