Aqueous Ozone – A Miracle Worker

Aqueous Ozone is another story altogether and in as much as Ozone – O₃ – is either good or bad. Contrary to what might be obvious, aqueous ozone has a long-established and well-respected history in the food operations industry – a disinfectant and food preservative – all that is needed is an ozone generator  that will be near at hand for easy access.

Ozone for disinfecting food

It has been used as a disinfectant in drinking water since 1893, a food preservative for the cold storage of meats since 1909, and to prevent the growth of yeast and mold during the storage of fruits in 1939.

Aqueous ozone O₃ also has a long history for use as a broad-spectrum biocide against viruses, bacteria, biofilms, fungi and protozoa.

That is all old news, what is new is that:

Ozone in action

• The actual aqueous ozone made by an aqueous ozone system called on-site generation is environmentally friendly.
• Aqueous ozone can be generated and used where and when needed by the cleaning professional.
  

  Ozone for disinfecting food

• It safer for users and the environment than traditional cleaning products.
• It is the ideal solution for overall cleaning and sanitation of facilities.
• In respect to health – it is an ideal cleaning solution since it covers all types of germs.
• It reduces waste and operates more efficiently
• It reduces cleaning impact on workers, building users and on the environment.
• An aqueous ozone generator is easily available, and prices are very acceptable.
• It widely used for drinking water treatment due to its excellent disinfection and oxidation qualities – remover organic and inorganic matter as well as odor and taste.
• Leaves no chemical residues as a by-product of cleaning.

Economically, it is cheap and affordable, since it is mechanically created with electricity, water and oxygen. An electrical current is passed through oxygen O_2, which separates some of the oxygen molecules into two. In their turn the single oxygen molecules attach onto the remaining O₂ to create ozone which then infused into water – aqueous ozone.

From there, we have aqueous ozone because the ozone is infused in water. Poured into a spraying bottle, just as a cleaning worker would pour a cleaning solution or applied directly to surfaces by using a cleaning cloth or a microfiber cloth for an ideal cleaning system.

Ozone-process

As such, it is not only ideal as an industrial cleaner for use by professional cleaners, but it has also reached the level of being available for use as a home cleaner through products that have implemented O₃ as its main component. It can be used in washers, for windows, floors, bathrooms and kitchen. Not only that but it is a wonderful tool for the hydroponic gardener.

And, from the point of view of green cleaning aqueous ozone is the leader – aqueous ozone technology is a very green and sustainable way to keep facilities clean and healthy. It is a sustainable product not only for the environment, but economically as well.

So, basically what we have is:
