Response Surface Methodology Applied to Ozone Generation

Abstract

In this work, a strategy is presented to optimize the ozone generation by response surface methodology. A dielectric barrier discharge ozone generator was developed in which it is possible to control electrical current frequency and gas flow entering the generator. Response surface methodology was used to identify ozone generator optimum operational conditions, that is, those that permit considerable ozone productivity and high concentration of ozone gas.
