TREATMENT WITH OZONE
The ozone molecule, O3 is formed by the union of an oxygen molecule with a free oxygen atom. Free atoms, and consequently ozone, are the result of the dissociation of oxygen molecules when these are put under a strong electrical unloading.
The ozone molecule is one of the oxidants known more powerful with a speed of reaction three thousand times superior to the chlorine one. Due to this, ozone oxidizes iron, manganese and other heavy metals. It destroys virus, bacteria, fungi, esporas, seaweed and protozoos.
He is used to disturb detergent, pesticidas, trihalometanos and other many organic substances present in the water. In addition, it neutralizes cyanide, ammonia, nitritos and urea. This makes ozone very appropriate for the treatment of all type of water, since it recovers the common characteristics of the water and eliminates all type of strange odour, colors and flavors.
Our equipment generates a current of ozone that it is injected in the water that we want to treat. It is made by using the oxygen of the air.
That's for his oxidation characteristics, higher than other disinfectants agents like chlorine; Hidritec uses ozone for the following cases:
Swimming pools and spas treatment. We fit the equipment to the technical description of the swimming pool, so we optimize the best solution for each case. The use of ozone in the swimming pool treatment eliminates the problems with the use of chlorine (such as irritations, bad odors and organochlorated sub products) which are much damaged for the health like chloramines and trihalomethanes. At the same time, Ozone increases the transparency and oxygenation of the water and eliminates the use of flocculants agents. The security problems and structural corrosions caused by the use of the hypochlorite are avoided and the concentration of oxygen is increased on the surface of the swimming pool, what causes an improvement in the yield of the swimmers and an overcoming of the marks, due to this, at the present time ozone is the best suitable treatment for high competition swimming pools.
Waste water treatment. With the ozone treatment we can diminish the organic charge on waste water we want to treat, besides the fact we oxidize many of the injurious substances which are eliminated fitting effluent to correct values of turbidity, color and solids in suspension. In this way we avoid the appearance of odors. With ozone the metabolization of substances nonbiodegradable or difficult to eliminate is more possible than with other methods of treatment, so we obtain an effective treatment for industrial effluent with contents in fenoles, heavy metals, cyanide etc. Hidritec has an ample experience in reduction and elimination of DQO and DBO in industrial effluents.
• The ozonization equipment has also application in other type of places like aquariums, ice manufacture, process of washing and disinfection of bottles, cooling towers and elimination of odors.
