Ozone is an unstable gas comprising of three oxygen atoms, the gas will readily degrade back to oxygen, and during this transition a free oxygen atom, or free radical is form. The free oxygen radical is highly reactive and short lived, under normal conditions it will only survive for milliseconds.
Ozone, a triatomic form of oxygen (O3), is the product smelled near an electric spark or lightning strike. Ozone is the strongest oxidant of the common disinfecting agents. It was used as early as 1893 for drinking water treatment. Today, it is the most commonly used disinfection process in Europe. One important reason is that only oxygen is added to organic compounds, so few of the products are considered to be health hazards. A wider spectrum of organisms is destroyed by ozone than by chlorine, and removal of taste and odors is excellent. The reactions are rapid compared to those for chlorine, but only after an initial demand for ozone is satisfied.
Even though chlorine has been used successfully in the U.S. for many years, there is rapidly growing sentiment to switch to ozone. The word cancerscares people, and chlorination does produce chemicals that are more carcinogenic than the organic compounds initially present. Such compounds accumulate in fatty structures such as the membranes of cells, so concentrations tend to be higher in organisms than in the water in which they grow. Nevertheless, there are many unanswered questions about true health hazards, concentrations that cause cancer, and costs that complicate the decision to convert to ozone.
Water-tank self-cleaning ozone water disinfector
Operating Principle
First, place the circulation tank of self-cleaning sterilizer to the lower middle part of the water tank so as to guarantee the even circulation of the tank water. When the water level reaches the designed top limit, the electric control cabinet starts up the high-voltage power and the strongly-oxidized gas generated by the immersible pump flows through the pipeline to the aeration section to aerate-disinfect the water, and at the same time, the immersible pump sends the disinfected water back into the water tank to circulate the stagnant water. Thus water circulation continues until thorough disinfection is completed and the water quality is guaranteed. Before delivered off the factory, the time for this product has been setted,no need resetting for the user.

1. Water-tank ozone self-cleaning disinfector
2. Water-tank micro-electrolysis self-cleaning disinfector
Working principle for the water-tank micro-electrolysis self-cleaning disinfector:
The water-tank self-cleaning disinfector starts up electro-chemical reaction to excite the chlorine ions dissolved into the water to generate the following oxidized substances: HCLO, CLO2, O3, O and Cl2, etc. The above oxidized matters will then be diffused and circulated so as to dispose the water tank, all the water inside and the water tank walls, damage the bacteria and alga microbiological cells and ultimately achieve the goal of disinfection and killing algae.

Applications
The water-tank self-cleaning disinfector has been widely used in such water storage areas as high level cisterns, water storage tanks, living water tanks, clean water pool of sewage treatment works, fire water tanks, fountain springs, waterscape cistern, swimming pools and the water storage pools for such industries as aquatic products, aquaculture, oceanic world and food and beverage.
