Question

Ozone can either be generated on site or stored inside pressurized vessels like chlorine. Select one :True or False

Answer 1

Since ozone is unstable & highly reactive form of oxygen therefore, it is not recommended to storeozone in pressurized vessels. Ozone is generated on site using Ozone Generator which provides electrical stimulation of oxygen molecules to conveert them to ozone.

Hence, on industrial usage basis, total statement given in question is FALSE. As ozone is generated on site like chlorine but it is not feasible to store it in pressurized vessel.

However, as additional information ozone can be stored if cooled to -70 deg c. However, it is not economically viabe.
