Ozone
WHICH SUBSTANCES REMOVES OZONE?
Oct
Ozone treatment destroys molds, fungi and their spores, bacteria, some viruses, house dust mites as well as unpleasant smells including cigarette smoke. Ozone can also neutralize other chemical compounds, e.g. toxic building substances.
FUNGI AND MOLDS
Fungi are the cause of mustiness smell. Also cause different diseases in humans, animals and plants bodies. Fungus is the most common cause of unpleasant odors from the air conditioning systems Ozone destroys not only the fungi but also the spores and spore forms of effectively neutralizing odors.
ODORS OF ORGANIC AND INORGANIC ORIGIN
Ozone treatment eliminates odors of organic and inorganic (including the smell of tobacco smoke), destroying the volatile particles that carry odors. Ozone does not hide unpleasant odors, but removes them. Odor of cigarette smoke contains thousands of chemical compounds – ozone causes them to oxidize to simpler compounds less harmful and that do not have sharp odor.
MICROORGANISMS
Bacteria and viruses are the cause of many infections and diseases. Bacteria is causing the decay of food products which emit at the same time unpleasant odor. Incontact with ozone, bacteria and their spores are destroyed without creating more danger.
DUST MITES
Dust mites belong to the saprophytes, which feed on dead organisms and sloughed organic matter. So they appear, where we spend the most time. They may also cause asthma attacks or allergies Already low concentrations of ozone causes their death.
POLLENS
Pollens can cause allergies, irritation of the eyes, throat or nose. Under the influence of ozone contained in the flower pollen allergens lose their undesirable properties.
TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTAINED IN BUILDING MATERIALS
These are particularly dangerous compounds with long-term inhalation of their vapors, some of which have carcinogenic properties. Ozone breaks down carbon ring substances contained in solvents, organic paints, adhesives, etc. eliminates the smell and harmful effects on human and animal organisms.
INSECTS AND RODENTS
Regular ozonation can scare off insects like cockroaches, prussians, spiders, moths and rodents like mice, rats (insects and rodents detecting ozone leave the room).
CARBON MONOXIDE
Carbon monoxide is formed by incomplete combustion (eg natural gas). It is a very dangerous substance, highly toxic, odorless In contact with ozone is oxidized to a much less dangerous carbon dioxide.
