Method for Making Higher Concentration Ozone than Supplied O₃ Derived from Condensing Process Using Ozone Storage under the Same Conditions

Abstract

We have been researching ozone storage using a silica gel that functions as an adsorbent. We found that ozone stored in silica gel was, once released, higher in concentration than the original ozone that was produced by an ozone generator powered by an electrical discharge. Additionally, this method of storage led to an increase in ozone concentration without the need for any additional energy. When ozone was stored in silica gel, it changed from a gaseous state to a liquid state via a vapor state in narrow capillaries according to Kelvin's law. When ozone was desorbed, it was concentrated depending on the changing of the form from a liquid state to a gaseous state via a supercritical fluids state in the narrow capillaries.
