In comments at a meeting of the cabinet on Sunday evening, Iranian Vice-President for Science and Technology Ruhollah Dehghani Firouzabadi said local experts have manufactured the world’s biggest ozone reactor in Iran.
He said the device, unveiled on February 3, generates nano-ozone bubbles for water treatment.
The homegrown ozone rector removes unpleasant odor and taste from drinking water, the vice president added.
According to Dehghani Firouzabadi, the high-tech machine provides service for 320,000 people.
Ozone reactor is a general name for all products that mix ozone into water.
Since the ozone nanobubbles have a large surface area, the ozone gas is more efficiently dissolved in liquids and improves effectiveness in applications such as water treatment and disinfection.
