OZONE IN AIR

摘要

Ozone is heavierthan oxygen so ozone in the atmosphere tends to sink, but seldom descends very far because 0 molecules are so highly reactive that they either combine with each other [2 x 0 forming 3 x 0 ] or react with other gaseous or particulate substances in the atmosphere. This highly reactive character of ozone is what makes ozone useful not only as a powerful quick-acting disinfectant which chemically destroys micro-organisms, but also as an extremely efficient deodorising agent which acts by oxidising the organic debris from the dead micro-organisms as well as any other odour-producing organic and inorganic contaminants.
