In today's field of disinfection technology, ozone sterilization, as a strong and effective method, is gradually gaining widespread attention and application. Ozone, a gas composed of three oxygen atoms, with its unique properties and strong sterilization capacity, plays an important role in many fields.
First, the principle of ozone sterilization
Ozone has a strong bactericidal ability, from its strong oxidizing properties. When ozone comes into contact with bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, it destroys their structure and function in a variety of ways. First, ozone can react with the unsaturated fatty acids in the cell membrane, destroying the structure of the cell membrane and causing the cell contents to leak, leading to cell death. Secondly, ozone can react directly with DNA and RNA, the genetic material of bacteria, destroying their structure and function, so that bacteria cannot reproduce and survive. In addition, ozone will produce some oxidizing substances, such as hydrogen peroxide, etc., which also have the role of auxiliary sterilization.
Second, the advantages of ozone sterilization
Sterilization speed: ozone can quickly kill a large number of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in a short period of time, has a high sterilization efficiency.
Broad-spectrum sterilization: ozone on a variety of bacteria, viruses, fungi, spores and other microorganisms have a killing effect, with broad-spectrum sterilization characteristics. Whether it is common E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, or some more stubborn viruses and fungi, ozone can effectively kill.
No residue: ozone sterilization will decompose into oxygen, will not leave any harmful substances, harmless to the environment and human health. This makes ozone sterilization in the field of drinking water treatment and other high safety requirements have unique advantages.
Easy to operate: ozone sterilization equipment is usually simple, easy to operate and easy to maintain. You only need to follow the instructions for the equipment to achieve effective sterilization and disinfection.
Can improve the quality of the environment: ozone has the ability to oxidize and decompose odorous substances, and can remove odors from the air while sterilizing, improving the quality of the environment.
