Hi Pedro. I am not an expert in this field but it is of concern to me and I have had to read lots of related literatures assessing the system functionality. The efficiency of the system often comes into question due to the need to maintain an optimal ozone dosage. Low dosage may not effectively inactivate some viruses, spores, and cysts. And because the concentration of ozone generated from either air or oxygen is so low, the transfer efficiency to the liquid phase is always a critical economic consideration.
