Ozone Benefits
-
Broad Spectrum pool sanitation
-
3000x stronger than Chlorine
Wastewater Treatment
-
Ozone helps destroy harmful substances, colors, odors, and microorganisms directly without harmful by products or the creation of residue.
-
Ozone will also help remove tensides, phenols,cyanides and discolorations from waste water.
-
Dissolved ozone flotation (DOF) is a new advancement that makes Dissolved Gas Flotation (DGF) systems more efficient for wastewater treatment.
-
Ozone Solutions systems are ideal for a wide array of industries including pharmaceuticals, textiles, automotive, and many others.
-
The benefit s of ozone combined with Our industry leading technology and service provide you a powerful choice for waste water disinfection including treatment of complex industrial waste.
Chlorine versus ozone in swimming pools
The nature of chlorine
Chlorine is still the most popular means of sanitizing swimming pool waters. It does an excellent job of sanitizing the water – but at a huge cost to public health!
However the European nations have effectively banned its use in many countries esp in swimming pools since long and soon India is also following suit slowly but steadily.
Chlorine is
-
Very toxic
-
Hazardous to handle
-
Dangerous to store (Can be extremely flammable!)
-
A caustic corrosive chemical
-
Chlorine is effective because it attacks anything organic- unfortunately it also attacks the skin., hair., and eyes of people swimming in these chlorinated pools.
-
Chlorine when added to water combines with other natural compounds and produces by products called thm’s(Trihalomethanes) which are carcinogenic in nature.
-
Chlorine has to be purchased/ stored safely and dosed correctly – associated risks of under and over dosing are a frequent phenomena in swimming pools by operators.
The common side effects of chlorine in swimming pool water
-
Red/burning and itchy eyes… chlorine reacts with ammonia in sweat and urine producing chloramines- which can be damaging to the eyes.
-
Brittle, listless hair and hair loss.
-
Acne – breakouts can worsen.
-
Irritated, dry and itchy skin- chlorine removes all the essential oils in the sebum.
-
Toxic off gases- typically found in pools just above the water levels- causing ingress of these thms into the lungs and induces coughing etc in some people.

The ozonation of swimming pools
-
Benefits of ozonation of the swimming pool waters have been evaluated for long.
-
ozone cannot be bought/stored and dosed like chlorine.
-
Ozone is generated on-site on demand and is extremely safe.
-
Ozone does not produce any by products- leave alone toxic by products.
-
Ozone is 3000 times more powerful than chlorine in sanitizing water.
-
Ozone effectively kills all bacteria/ viruses and fungi and leaves no by products.
-
After doing its job of disinfectinng the water ozone rapidly converts itself back to oxygen.
-
Ozone is not flammable or hazardous as opposed to chlorine ozone does not cause any health hazards and its use in swimming pools in Europe has been very successful for many decades now.
-
No operator or human error in under or dosing or over dosing unlike chlorine.
