OZONE ODOR CONTROL

Odours and airborne contaminants can be significant problems in commercial and industrial settings. They can come from a variety of sources and can affect comfort, employee performance, health and safety of employees, customer satisfaction, product quality, and compliance with environmental regulations. Additionally, it is challenging to eliminate odours in commercial or industrial settings with a constant source of odour-causing compounds. Traditional cleaning methods such as ventilation, UV light, air purifiers, air cleaners, and cleaning devices may not effectively remove odours. This is where industrial ozone generators come in.

The Ozone technology is an efficient and economical alternative. Ozone can react with most of these compounds, destroying/oxidizing them very efficiently and simultaneously removing the odour created by these compounds in the air. An Industrial ozone machine produces ozone, a highly reactive form of oxygen, which reacts with and neutralizes odour-causing compounds. This natural and chemical-free process is highly effective in removing odours from the air and hard-to-reach surfaces such as carpets and furniture. In addition, helps to eliminate viruses, bacteria, spores, and many other airborne contaminants found in the air.

Also, industrial facilities, like biodiesel plants, wastewater treatment plants, and chemical production exhausts, use ozone for smell remediation to destroy airborne pathogens that can harm humans. In the correct concentration, ozone is highly effective against airborne viruses. 

The benefits of using ozone for odour removal

There are several benefits of using ozone for odour removal in industrial settings:

1. Chemical-Free: Ozone is a natural oxidant that neutralizes odor-causing compounds without the use of chemicals, making it a safer and healthier solution for removing odors.
2. Effective: Ozone can penetrate into all areas of space, including porous materials, making it highly effective in removing odors from the air and hard-to-reach surfaces.
3. Cost-Effective: Industrial generators are easy to install and operate, making them a cost-effective solution for large industrial facilities.
4. Safe: Ozone is a naturally occurring substance and does not pose a risk to human health or the environment when used at appropriate ozone concentration. We offer assistance for the safe use and handling of ozone
5. Improved Work Environment: By removing unwanted odors, the ozone machine helps to maintain a safe, healthy, and pleasant work environment, improving employee morale and motivation.

Ozone Odors Control in Industrial Settings

Absolute Ozone supplies ozone-based odour control systems for several municipal and industrial applications where unwanted odours such as smoke, human and pet, food, mould and mildew, garbage, renovation, and more. Some of these industries include:

1. Chemical Processing: In the chemical processing industry, unwanted odours can result from the production of various chemicals, such as solvents, resins, and intermediates. In the pharmaceutical industry, unwanted odours can be generated, for example, during fermentations used to produce various medicines and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
2. Coating Processes: In coating processes, unwanted odours can result from the use of solvents, resins, and other chemicals used in the production of various coatings.
3. Storage Tanks: In storage tank facilities, unwanted odours can result from the storage of various chemicals, fuels, and other materials that can emit odours.
4. Fish & Poultry Processing: In the fish and poultry processing industry, unwanted odours can result from the processing of fish and poultry products, including the rendering of by-products.
5. Pulp & Paper Manufacturing: In the pulp and paper industry, unwanted odours can result from the production of pulp and paper, as well as the treatment of process wastewater.
6. Compost Facilities: In compost facilities, odours can result from the composting of organic waste materials, such as food waste and yard waste.
7. Food Processing: In food processing, unwanted odours can result from the processing of various food products, including the rendering of by-products.
8. Animal Rendering Plants: In animal rendering plants, unwanted odours can result from the rendering of animal by-products, including animal fat and bones.
9. Breweries: In the brewing industry, odours can result from the production of beer and other fermented beverages and the treatment of processed wastewater.

In each industry, unwanted odours can negatively impact the environment and the health and safety of employees. These industries can effectively remove unwanted odours and maintain a safe and pleasant working environment by using industrial ozone generators for odour control.

How ozone generator works for odour control

An industrial ozone generator produces ozone from enriched oxygen. Highly concentrated ozone reacts with odor molecules through a process called oxidation, in which the extra oxygen atom in the ozone molecule is transferred to the odor molecule, causing a change in its chemical composition. The ozone is then circulated throughout the area, which needs to be treated for odour control.

As the ozone molecules come into contact with the unwanted odors, they react and neutralize the odor-causing compounds. This reaction changes the chemical structure of the compounds, breaking them down into non-odorous substances.

Once the odour control treatment is complete, the ozone will revert to an oxygen atom within a few minutes (The half-life of ozone in the air is 20 min) to hours. This allows the treated area to be reoccupied without any residual ozone odour.

Ozone generators are a highly effective and efficient solution for odour control in industrial settings. With proper ozone output and maintenance, an ozone generator can provide a cost-effective and long-lasting solution for eliminating unwanted odours.
