  • Patent number: 6153151
    Abstract: A system and method for generating ozone for use in open or closed loop process applications using a fluid, such as water, as a primary process medium, including: a water storage tank, supplied by a water supply line, for temporarily storing water for treatment and subsequent use in a process; an electromagnetic flux unit connected to the water supply line for exposing water supplied to the tank to an electromagnetic field thereby magnetically polarizing contaminants and dissolved solids present in the water; an apparatus for producing highly pure oxygen from ambient air for use as a feed gas in generating ozone; a corona discharge ozone generator for producing high purity ozone from a highly pure oxygen feed gas; an impeller apparatus, including a rapidly rotating shear impeller, for injecting ozone, created by the ozone generator, into water wherein the ozone is absorbed thus yielding a substantially high level of dissolved ozone gas in a given volume of water; an apparatus for measuring the concentration o

  • Patent number: 5514345
    Abstract: An apparatus for disinfecting an enclosed space for the preservation and sterilization of harvested foods, and for reducing toxic gas levels associated with confining animals in an enclosed space using ozone and an ozone distribution device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 11, 1994
    Date of Patent: May 7, 1996
    Assignee: Ozact, Inc.
    Inventors: Cornelius D. Garbutt, Douglas A. Moxley
  • Patent number: 5503808
    Abstract: A portable compact ozone generator for producing a consistent source of ozone portably that eliminates nitrous oxides and nitric acid. The device includes a small air compressor that provides compressed ambient air to a pair of molecular sieves that eliminate humidity and concentrates oxygen to provide a source of dry oxygen to the ozone generator.
