Ozone Destruction

UV treatment is an effective, safe, and sustainable solution in the destruction of residual ozone in a variety of applications. UV Guard offers expertise in offering safe, efficient, and sustainable ozone destruction with UV for industrial, medical, and commercial facilities. Our technology provides a chemical-free method on how to reduce ozone with UV across different water and air treatment applications.

Effective and Sustainable Ozone Destruction with UV

Ozonation is a widely used technology across sectors such as drinking water treatment, pharmaceutical production, biotechnology, food and beverage processing, and cleanroom operations. It plays a role in microbial control and organic contaminant removal during pre-treatment. However, excess ozone left in water or air can pose risks: corrosion of infrastructure, product degradation, and health concerns in consumable goods or occupied spaces.

Ozone destruction with UV is a reliable, chemical-free method for breaking down ozone molecules into oxygen. This process is achieved using shortwave ultraviolet (UV-C) light, which converts harmful ozone (O₃) into harmless oxygen (O₂). In many systems, UV not only removes residual ozone but also provides an additional disinfection step.

UV Guard offers a range of systems, including the Armour, Armour X, MPX Series, and P-Series, each designed to suit specialist ozone removal needs across air and water systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Shortwave UV-C light breaks ozone (O₃) down into oxygen (O₂), safely reducing its concentration without introducing chemicals.

Yes. Ozone destruction with UV is a purely physical process that uses light energy. It is entirely chemical-free and produces no by-products other than oxygen.

UV is used for ozone control in the bottled water, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, semi-conductor, and aquaculture industries.

UV offers a simple, low-maintenance, and safer method for how to reduce ozone with uv. Unlike thermal methods, it requires no heat, and unlike catalytic methods, it requires no expensive catalyst material.

Yes. UV ozone destruction systems are designed to be compact and easily integrated into existing pipework (for water) or ductwork (for air) with minimal modification.

Maintenance is generally low, consisting mainly of the periodic replacement of the UV lamp and cleaning of the quartz sleeve to ensure consistent UV output for effective ozone breakdown.

When properly installed within an enclosed system (like a water pipe or air duct), UV is entirely safe. It effectively removes ozone before the water or air exits the system and reaches occupied areas.
