When you decide to investigate the effectiveness of ozone for your application, you should become familiar with the "mass transfer" technologies available to you. For any water or waste water treatment scenario, ozone is only effective after it has been dissolved in the water. How you dissolve the ozone in the water is your mass transfer technology.
There are many methods available today and all have a varying degree of effectiveness. To get the most effective and reliable solution, you need the most efficient mass transfer available. Water Energy leads the industry with the most advanced ozone water treatment systems anywhere.
The key thing to remember when specifying a system is that high concentrations of dissolved ozone must always be present in your water to accomplish your goal of oxidizing contaminates such as dirt, oil, odor, bacteria, viruses, etc. The higher the concentration of dissolved ozone in the water, the better it is able to clean contaminants thoroughly and completely.
Reservoir Supply Tank
Water Energy systems utilize a continuously recirculating reservoir tank to provide a consistent supply of dissolved ozone. This approach provides a controlled environment which allows sufficient contact time between the ozone gas and the water, sufficient pressure upon the ozone gas as it comes in contact with the water, and patented water circulation patterns to achieve thorough mixing.
Patented Mass Transfer Technology
Achieving sufficient concentrations of ozone in your water is the key to good results. Research has found that using our patented method of "mass transfer" technology provides the superior horsepower needed to deliver a consistent stream of ozonated water at the appropriate level of concentration.
In this approach, water is taken in from the city supply and passed to a pressurized supply tank, where it is continuously circulated through our patented mass transfer contact columns. The proper concentrations of dissolved ozone are rapidly achieved in the reservoir water. This water is held until some piece of downstream equipment (such as a commercial washing machine) demands water for its process.
Integrated Ozone Sensor
An integrated dissolved ozone sensor constantly monitors the concentration of ozone in the water. When the amount of dissolved ozone dips to a pre-determined level in the reservoir, the water is circulated through the mass transfer contact columns again. The speed of circulation between the supply tank and the contact columns helps the water maintain the specific level of ozone concentration desired by the operator. Our systems have automatic pumps and valves to regulate the flow of water between the reservoir tank and contact columns.
Water Energy is the Right Choice
This approach, used in all Water Energy systems, was developed by a team of chemists, chemical engineers, environmental engineers, mechanical engineers and biologists who collectively hold over 30 patents. We strongly recommend this technology to all our customers.
