Ozone
advantages
-
low
investment
- low operational costs
- very high efficiency and disinfection
rate
- reduced energy consumption per
unit ozone production (kWh/kg)
- low space requirements due to
compact design
- no separate pre- or after treatment
needed
- Drastically reduced oxygen demand
due to extremely high production efficiency
- works with very low ozone concentration,
which is already below the allowed legislation
- no harmful rest products
- reacts almost immediately, does
not require a long contact time (extra reservoirs etc.)
- reduces the amount of flocculent
and disinfectant needed
- improves the clearness of the
water
- easy, predictable process scale-up
- low maintenance and service requirements
