Right now we have a 120 gram/hour ozone injection system available for rent. Commonly all our turn-key systems are rented and customers on put on waiting list. At this time we have a system available for immediate shipment.
The WS-120 will produce 120 grams/hour of ozone and dissolve this ozone into water flows up to 50 GPM. This is a great system for pilot test or test application as it is easy to ship, set up, and operate on-site. All components are installed into one convenient weather tight enclosure.
Diagram shows the operation of the WS-120 and all included components.
We offer long or short term rentals for the WS-120, for more information or to find out pricing on a long term application call our office today.

As a past customer of Ozone Solutions for water treatment products we wanted to make you aware of a recent improvement to the Dissolved Ozone Vacuvial test kit (K-7404) and Digital Dissolved Ozone Meter(I-2019), produced by CHEMetrics. We believe that both of the updates will provide a great solution to your ozone monitoring needs.
The Dissolved Ozone Test Kit,K-7404, formerly known as the K-7402, can now read high levels of ozone, up to 3 PPM. This kit uses colorimetic tubes for easy ozone readings. This is a great all inclusive kit.
The Digital Dissolved Ozone Meter (I-2019) now has a range of 0.2 to 5.0 PPM. This unit is easy to use and an accurate way to measure ozone in water.
The improved vacuvials use a safety tip to ensure no broken glass is left after the vial is broken.
Instruction videos have been created with simple step by step instructions on using each device. These videos can be view here:

There have been a lot of question about the efficacy of ozone in warm/hot water. Yes – ozone does work in hot water! See the supporting documentation below.
- Ozone Efficacy in Hot Water – PDF
EPA Chart showing log 4 virus inactivation with ozone vs. temperature
R.N. Kinman (1975) & E. Katzenelson, et al. (1974) reported “As temperature increases, ozone becomes less soluble and less stable in water; however, the disinfection and chemical oxidation rates remain relatively stable. Studies have shown that although increasing the temperature from 0 to 30 deg C can significantly reduce the solubility of ozone and increases its decomposition rate, temperature has virtually no effect on the disinfection rate of bacteria.”
In other words, the disinfection rate was found to be relatively independent of temperature despite the reduction in solubility and reduced stability at higher temperatures.
If hot water reduces the solubility of ozone, how is Ozone Solutions addressing the lower solubility issue?
Generating high ozone gas concentrations provides better ozone mass transfer into water. We generate these high concentrations by:
- using an oxygen concentrator to provide a 90% pure oxygen feed gas to the corona cell thereby increasing the generated ozone concentration
- using a high-frequency ozone generator which can generate ozone concentrations in excess of 7% by weight

Abstract
Ozonation of drinking waters containing algae sometimes has a beneficial effect on the process of coagulation. It is hypothesized that the extracellular organic matter (EOM) from the algae affects the flocculation process. The effects on algal particle stability and flocculation due to ozonation and the role of EOM were investigated. Four species of algae were cultivated and EOM from the algae extracted. Scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) of the algae indicated little cell lysing for ozone doses of 3 mg/L or less. Extensive cell wall alteration was observed. Lysis of algae cells was prominent at 8 mg/L ozone. Ozonation decreased the algae volume concentrations and cell sizes. Cyclotella and Scenedesmus produced ten times as much EOM per unit cell number than Chlorella. The EOM of Cyclotella and Scenedesmus was also of higher molecular size than that of Chlorella. Increasing the ozone dose to extracted EOM and alginic acid, a model EOM compound, resulted in decreasing molecular size, colloid charge and increasing hydrophilicity and functional group charge. Bench scale jar tests and flocculation kinetic experiments were performed. Ozonation was not effective in decreasing the polymer dose required to coagulate the algae. However, ozonation improved overall removals of Scenedesmus, Cyclotella and Synura. Ozonation also increased the flocculation rate of Scenedesmus and Cyclotella, but had a detrimental effect on the rate for Chlorella. Increasing calcium (up to 30 mg/L as CaCO$\sb3$) and ozone dosage increased the flocculation rate of Scenedesmus. Natural waters spiked with Cyclotella and Synura showed an increased flocculation rate upon ozonation.

Ozone Solutions sells the Chemetrics K-7402 Vacuvial kits. These are a great coloremetric kit to verity dissolved ozone levels in water.
The K-7402 test kit comes with everything necessary for 30 tests. After 30 tests a refill kit is necessary. This is part number R-7402.
We just lowered the price from $29.97 to $23.26. This lowers testing cost from $1.00 per test to $0.78 per test. If you are in need of a great reference standard for dissolved ozone, the K-7402 test kit may be the perfect tool for the job.

One of the many mysteries of ozone application and use is the common Mazzei Venturi Injector. At Ozone Solutions, we field many questions and try to help customers understand and correctly apply the use of these injectors.
Venturi Injectors
Venturi Injectors work by forcing water through a conical body which initiates a pressure differential between the inlet and outlet ports. This creates a vacuum inside the injector body, which initiates ozone suction through the suction port.
It is important to understand the relationship of inlet and outlet pressure when using an injector. We recommend placing pressure gauges at both the inlet and outlet of the injector to determine the performance at all times. The performance of the injector can be shown with the included performance chart. For more information on this, we have a page on our website describing the chart, and how to use it in your application.
