Ozone Advantages
Twelve times more soluble than oxygen in waterMoves easily through the soil
Produced on-site, no need for hazardous chemical transportation or storage
Most powerful oxidizer availableComplex organics break down to carbon dioxide or less toxic molecules
Breaks down to oxygen which increases DO levels
Contaminants Destroyed by Ozone: MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, & xylenes)Hydrocarbons, Diesel Fuel, TCE (trichloroethylene), Pesticides, Chlorinated Solvents, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), Aliphatic & Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons
