A method for producing ozone in an ozone generating machine, including the steps of: supplying feed gas containing dioxygen at a gas inlet (OIN) of an ozone generator (OzG), at a given feed gas flow and feed gas pressure; supplying an alternating electric current so as to create electric discharges to generate a given amount of ozone at a gas outlet (OOUT) of the ozone generator (OzG); adjusting electric current power and at least one of a plurality of process parameters comprising; characterized in that the method includes, during ozone production, the steps of: monitoring electric power and said at least one parameter of the plurality of process parameters; and adjusting the feed gas pressure in response to the adjustment of the electric current power and said at least one process parameter.

Method for controlling an ozone generating machine

A continuous ozone generator includes: at least two electrodes with a dielectric medium placed therebetween, the electrodes defining discharge gaps; an input end for circulating an oxygen-loaded gas to an output end; at least one electrode being made up of at least two segments, placed one behind the other in the direction of the flow of the gas; elements for cooling the electrodes, and elements for supplying electrical current to establish voltage between the electrodes and cause discharges within the gaps where the gas flows. The segments of the electrode are divided into at least two electrically separate groups, and the electrical current supply elements include at least two separate electrical supply stages, respectively corresponding to each segment group, thus ensuring that power is provided by each stage while taking into consideration the local ozone concentration, while power supply optimization elements are provided to, respectively, control each electrical supply stage.
