Abstract
A method of treating a material with ozone including the steps of passing oxygen rich gas from a PSA plant 2 through an ozonizer 4 and then passing the ozonized oxygen thus formed directly back to the PSA plant where the ozone is adsorbed in a bed of silica gel contained within a vessel. During the desorption step nitrogen adsorbed in a bed of zeolite also located in the vessel desorbs the ozone from the bed of silica gel and a nitrogen-ozone gas leaves the PSA plant via a line in the feed end. The material is treated with the nitrogen-ozone gas.
