Ozone can absorb ultraviolet rays in the stratosphere and protect life on earth. But near the ground, too high ozone concentration will harm human health, damage the atmospheric environment, and bring about a series of adverse effects. Therefore, removing ozone is a meaningful thing. There are many ways to filter ozone. Here are some common ones:
• Activated carbon adsorption: Activated carbon has a loose and porous structure and can adsorb ozone. Filters containing activated carbon can be used to treat air or water containing ozone.
• Catalytic decomposition: A catalyst is used to quickly decompose ozone into oxygen at room temperature. For example, the honeycomb ozone filters used in some high-performance ozone decomposition devices use reactive catalysts with increased decomposition rates, which have the characteristics of less deterioration and long life.
• Decomposition by ultraviolet irradiation: Ozone is irradiated by ultraviolet rays or near-infrared rays of specific wavelengths, converting it into singlet state O₂, and then into ground state O₂.
It should be noted that ozone has certain irritating and oxidizing properties. When performing ozone filtration operations, relevant safety regulations should be followed to avoid direct contact with high concentrations of ozone that may cause harm to the human body. If ozone pollution exists indoors, you can also reduce ozone concentration and reduce its impact on the human body by choosing low-volatile organic compound products, reducing the use of household equipment that easily produces ozone, strengthening ventilation, monitoring indoor air quality, and paying attention to outdoor air quality. potential harm.
If large-scale ozone filtration treatment is involved in industry, more professional equipment and technology may be required. It is recommended to consult relevant environmental protection equipment suppliers or professional technicians to ensure filtration effect and safety.
