Ozone (O3) is a low molecular weight molecule composed of three oxygen atoms arranged in a triangular arrangement. Its high chemical reactivity results from its unstable electron configuration that seeks electrons from other molecules. During its reaction with other molecules ozone is destroyed and the organic material is oxidized. Compared with other disinfectants, the by products of ozone reactions are ecologically benign. Since ozone rapidly converts back into molecular oxygen - with a half-life of about 20 minutes - there's no need to worry about disinfection residuals in the end product.

Although ozone was "discovered" in the mid-19th century, it is only during the last several decades that its numerous applications and benefits have become evident. Ozone is used in water treatment for its oxidative qualities. With 52 percent more oxidizing power than chlorine, ozone will oxidized both organic and inorganic substances; remove unwanted taste, odor and color; and provide effective disinfection. Ozone is extremely efficient as a bactericide, fungicide and virucide, killing even chlorine-resistant Cryptosporidium. It can also be used for oxidation and removal of iron and manganese.
