Title:
OZONE GENERATING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1989/000975
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides ozone generating apparatus for use in air conditioning systems for sterilizing the recirculated air. The apparatus can also be used in food preservation and other areas where bacteria and other micro-organisms need to be controlled. The apparatus comprises a lamp (10, 20, 40, 50, 60) consisting of a tube (11, 21, 41, 51, 61) which has an internal conductor (15) surrounded by a layer of dielectric material. Surrounding the dielectric material is a layer of metal mesh material or a printed grid of similar conductive pattern. The internal conductor is applied with a high voltage power supply, and the high voltage breaks through the dielectric material in corona discharge to the outer metal mesh. Oxygen which comes into contact with the corona discharge (electric field) is ionised forming ozone (03) which is used to disinfect infected areas.
