INTRODUCTION
Ozone is the tri-atomic, allotropic form of oxygen having the chemical symbol O3. It is formed
naturally in the atmosphere, as a colorless gas with a very pungent odor. Although it is a
powerful oxidizing agent, it is unstable which, under ordinary conditions, spontaneously
decomposes to oxygen. It is often formed in nature after a lightning strike. The high voltage
turns the normal oxygen into ozone. This is why the air always smells so fresh after a
thunderstorm.
OZONE FUNCTION
DISSOLUBILITY
Ozone dissolves quickly in water, and has dissolubility 13 times that of oxygen’s. The oxidizing
power of ozone is much stronger after it has been dissolved in the water. It is anywhere from
300~2000 times stronger than Chlorine, the chemical commonly added to water supplies for
disinfecting purposes. Ozone water is approved by the FDA as an effective sanitizer against
microorganisms. Washing fruits, vegetables, cloth and dishware with ozonated water can rid them
of peculiar smells, eliminate pesticide residue, kill bacteria and virus and keep food fresher,
longer.
PESTICIDE, HORMONE AND TOXIN DEGRADATION
Ozone is a very powerful oxidizing agent, which can oxidize pesticides and other toxins changing
them to stable inorganic compounds.
STERILIZATION AND DISINFECTION
The oxygen atom is capable of oxidizing the bacteria and virus cell wall breaking down their
structural integrity and killing them. It can also degrade pesticides into harmless inorganic
compounds.
HE AVY METAL ION OXIDIZATION
The oxygen atom is capable of oxidizing dissolved heavy metal ions.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION CHARACTERISTICS
Traditionally, chlorine is used for water disinfection. However, it may produce carcinogenic
halides and causes secondary pollution. Ozone goes by the name of The Green Environmental
conservation element. After disinfection, with no outside interference, ozone reverts to oxygen
naturally without any toxic residue. That is why ozone is considered to be a highly effective,
environmental conservation disinfectant that can be used directly with food.
The CuisineClean uses churning current to wash the physical dirt off of the produce’s surface.
Meanwhile, it makes use of an electronic ozone generator to produce the powerful oxidizing
ozone to sterilize and disinfect, degrade residual pesticides and break down toxins. There is no
need to add any extra disinfectants. The CuisineClean is your best choice to keep your family
healthy and happy.
