Is the ozone produced by the air purifier harmful to the human body?

Date: 2022-03-24 Categories: Industry News Hits: 1245


      As an emerging industry in the air purifier market, there are many factors that affect the nerves of consumers under the current market situation that is not completely transparent. Among them, the ozone problem is an "unspoken rule of the industry" that cannot be avoided and dare not look directly!

      With the spread of smog and deteriorating air quality, the air purifier market has also become a "sunrise industry" with unlimited potential. However, in this new market, which is not completely transparent, there are many factors that affect the nerves of consumers. According to the survey, ozone is the topic that everyone is most concerned about and wants to know about. Today, IONKINI----air purifier manufacturers will answer your questions, about how to choose a truly harmless purification product!

 

Ubiquitous, but easily disintegrated

      Ozone is ubiquitous in forests and cities but its stability is poor. Under normal temperature and pressure, it can be automatically decomposed into oxygen within 90 minutes. If it has better ventilation conditions, its decomposition rate is even faster!

Highly oxidizing

      It is an indisputable fact that ozone has strong oxidizing properties. But the premise of the problem is that a certain concentration must be met. Under normal circumstances, breathing ozone with a concentration below 0.1PPM can kill harmful bacteria in the air, without causing health threats, and has certain health benefits.

 

What exactly is the role of ozone?

      Let's take an experiment as an example: adding 0.4mg of ozone to 1L of room temperature water can eliminate 98% of the bacteria in the air. And when the ozone concentration in the air reaches 0.15mg, its sterilization ability is even more shocking: it can destroy 99% of bacteria within half an hour. Because it is a recognized high-efficiency air bactericide, it can kill bacteria from the inside, and it can also achieve the invisible effect of sterilization through chemical action on the outside and bacteria. Therefore, its footprints are all over the fresh food counters in major shopping malls to preserve food; the field of medical disinfection is even more inseparable from ozone. Of course, ozone has also moved indoors from the outdoors and is used in various products of air purification to kill indoor air pollutants.

 

The high hazard of high concentrations of ozone!

When the ozone concentration in the uncirculated air reaches 0.1mg per cubic meter, the human throat, nasal cavity, and other organs will be strongly stimulated; and when the concentration reaches 0.2mg/m, the eyes will have a strong tingling sensation.

 

What technologies are used in air cleaning products that produce ozone?

1. Ozone purification technology:

      The ozone generator uses the principle of high-voltage power generation to convert oxygen into ozone, so as to achieve the effect of purifying the air. Although it can effectively kill bacteria and various microorganisms.

2. Electrostatic dust removal technology:

      The electrostatic field is used to ionize the gas to generate a large number of electrons and ions, which contact the dust particles and bacteria in the airflow during the movement so that the dust particles are charged and adsorbed to the electrodes.

3. Negative ion technology:

      Through artificial negative ions, air negative ions with small particle size are generated, which combine with dust and other particles in the air and collide into molecular clusters through the attraction between positive and negative ions, resulting in sedimentation. But the disadvantage is that the negative ions are very unstable, and the problem of ozone exceeding the standard is prone to occur.

4. Other technologies:

      In addition to the above, there are ultraviolet, plasma air purification technologies. Plasma air purification technology generates high-concentration plasma through corona discharge of asymmetric electrodes, which is a new environmental protection technology with high efficiency and low energy consumption. But it is not very popular yet, looking forward to its wonderful debut.

 

What concentration range of ozone is safe and healthy?

      For ozone concentration, the standard in China and the United States is the same, which is 0.075PPM, which is 0.16mg/m3. When the ozone concentration is less than 0.1 mg/m, the index is excellent, and when the concentration is less than 0.16 mg/m, the index is good. The human body's perceived concentration of ozone is 0.02-0.04PPM (that is, 0.043mg/m-0.08mg/m), consumers do not need to hear the word "ozone" to be frightened. National standard products, ozone is still very beneficial to the human body.

 

How to choose the right products without ozone hazards?

      Ozone itself is not terrible, and the right amount of ozone is also beneficial to the human body. The root cause of "ozone hazard"

      In fact, it is caused by the "quick success" of the merchants! Some purifiers on the market in the past only had a low voltage of several thousand volts,

      It is completely unable to achieve the ideal function of cleaning and dust removal. So these businesses seek the so-called "high cleanliness"

      It does not hesitate to increase the voltage and cause the ozone to soar to achieve the so-called "high efficiency" and "sterile dust removal" effect. In March 2017, the law enforcement officers of Shanghai Quality Supervision Bureau conducted law enforcement supervision in a factory in Jiading,

It was found that a batch of air purifiers marked with special functions was tested, and their ozone content was as high as 50 times, far exceeding the ozone emission standard of the national standard of air purifiers!

 

      However, as long as the product is selected, the merchant can issue a professional evaluation report issued by a third-party organization, and the ozone concentration also meets the domestic and foreign standards, such a product can be used with confidence! For the current chaos in the industry where ozone exceeds the standard, we must be vigilant, learn more about air purification, don't listen to exaggerated rumors and advertising slogans, and choose good products with genuine authoritative certification. Only then can we buy back real health protection!
