Do you really know about ozone?
1、 The discovery and development process of ozone
In 1785, German Van Marum found that the air was particularly fresh and had a unique smell of grass after a thunderstorm, so he found the existence of ozone.
In 1840, German chemist Schonbein published his paper "The Odor of the Anode in the Electrolysis of Water" in Basel. This stimulating gas was officially recognized as "reactive oxygen species" and named ozone. Ozone, also known as superoxide, strong oxygen, oxygen rich, or trioxide, is widely known for its protective effect on life on Earth due to the large ozone layer.
In 1857, Siemens invented the first ozone generator.
In 1972, WoIFF Private HansIet founded the first ozone society in Germany.
In 1984, the Medical Ozone Society was established in Italy.
In 1999, Italy initiated and reorganized the International Medical Ozone Society (IMOS).
In 2000, the European Community approved ozone therapy devices for the treatment of viral hepatitis and various gynecological diseases.
Before liberation, ozone research in China was completely blank. In 1928, the British disinfected the air in Tianjin "Heji" egg factory, and began to use ozone in China.
In 1373, Professor Wang Zhansheng from Tsinghua University and others developed a glass tube ozone generator; In the 1980s, high-frequency ozone generators were developed and applied in environmental protection and medical institutions; In the late 1990s, China established the Ozone Information Service Network.
In 2003, the PLA General Equipment Engineering Design Institute conducted research on the purification of wastewater from ozone based toluene explosive rocket propellants, trinitrotoluene, and chemical weapons, and achieved breakthrough results.
During the SARS outbreak in China, Beijing University of Technology and Wuhan University inactivated the SARS virus in the P3 laboratory, with a comprehensive inactivation rate of up to 99.22%. This is the world's first ozone inactivation of the SARS virus, which means that the application of ozone in medicine has reached a new stage. However, for 220 years, due to the unstable nature of ozone itself, the application of ozone therapy has long relied on expensive ozone generating equipment, and the ozone gas and aqueous solution generated by the equipment can only be prepared and used on-site.
Since the last century, physicists, biomedical scientists, and researchers from Wuhan University in China have jointly formed the "O3 Physical Normal Application" research group. After nearly 13 years and more than 7620 repeated experiments and demonstrations, they have finally found a solution to the technical problem of "ozone solidification under normal temperature and pressure". The successful research of this technology means that the dream of fixing ozone for 220 years has finally become a reality for humanity.
2、 Characteristics of Ozone
Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen, with the same constituent elements but different forms and properties. Its molecular weight is 48, heavier than air, and it is easy to settle and diffuse. Compared to oxygen, ozone is very unstable and automatically reduces to oxygen in about half an hour. The solubility of ozone in water is 13 times that of oxygen, and its half-life in water is a few minutes. Due to the extreme instability of ozone, people are unable to store and transport it, and can only rely on various equipment for on-site production. Ozone concentrations that are too low cannot achieve disinfection and sterilization effects, while those that are too high are harmful to human health. The concentration ratio is difficult to control, and quantitative production is highly challenging. The most significant characteristic of ozone is that it does not leave any pollutants after completing its mission, and instead provides a fresh layer of oxygen.
3、 Medical applications of ozone
1. Ozone has been widely used in gynecological inflammation and various fungal infections causing tinea corporis; Skin and mucosal diseases caused by various viruses, such as genital warts; Various skin infections, oral mucosal ulceration, and other conditions caused by inflammation, acne, hemorrhoids, skin burns, and trauma.
2. Intravenous administration of ozone can increase blood ozone and oxygen concentrations. Ozone can help the liver break down toxins and waste, and can be used for kidney failure, oral mucosal ulceration, etc.
3. Ozone can decompose cholesterol and triglycerides, reduce blood lipids, and treat hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular diseases.
4. Oxygen (O2) generated by ozone decomposition can promote metabolism, improve microcirculation, and can be used for the treatment of diabetes, cancer and other diseases.
5. Ozone can decompose uric acid and glycoproteins, and can treat gout and intervertebral disc herniation.
6. Ozone has the ability to inhibit platelet aggregation, prevent thrombosis, and prevent and treat diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke.
7. Ozone can be used for air disinfection in public places such as hospitals.
8. Medical care, CCTV International specifically introduced ozone therapy for skin diseases and other illnesses in Japan and Europe.
4、 Industrial application of ozone
1. Industrial wastewater treatment; Disposal of chemical weapon waste and missile propellant waste.
2. Disinfection and sterilization of drinking water in water plants.
3. Transportation and preservation of food and aquatic products.
5、 Characteristics of ozone antibacterial agent disinfection and sterilization
1. Broad spectrum: Ozone has a killing effect on various bacteria, viruses, fungi, molds, etc., and is a "universal" fungicide. This is incomparable to any other antibiotics, antiviral drugs, and disinfectants.
2. Efficient and rapid: After reaching a certain concentration, ozone can kill 100% of pathogenic microorganisms within seconds to minutes, making it the fastest disinfectant known.
3. Safety: Ozone acute toxicity test shows LD50>; 5000mg/kg, non-toxic: and has no irritating effect on the skin, mucosa, or eyes. Due to the strong oxidative balance enzyme system of healthy cells, ozone is harmless to healthy cells.
4. Penetration: Due to its small molecular weight, 03 has a strong penetration effect on cells and tissues, and can quickly penetrate into cells and tissues to kill pathogenic microorganisms.
5. No resistance: Due to the different mechanism of action of ozone compared to conventional antibiotics and antiviral drugs, no bacteria, fungi, etc. will develop resistance to ozone, and no matter how long they are used, no resistance will be developed.
6. Dual nature of sterilization treatment: Ozone kills pathogenic microorganisms and generates oxygen, which can be absorbed and utilized by cells and tissues, accelerating local tissue blood circulation, promoting wound healing, and healing without scars or pigmentation.
