PARTNERSHIP OZOTEK® The “Ozotek Srl - Bio Consulting” partnership was a fundamental requirement to represent new opportunities for use of ozone, Active Oxygen System OZOTEK®. The great effectiveness in water and air sanitation is supported by industrial expertise of Ozotek and scientific expertise of Bio Consulting, adapting them to the specific needs of customers, Ozone is used in many different fields, wherever there is the need of either the destruction of microorganisms and pollutants, eliminating the chemical and greatly reducing energy costs. Main areas of action for water are drinking, eating, washing, swimming pool and waste; in sanitizing the environments are food preservation, such as the fridge and storage cells, and sanitation services in public spaces such as canteens and hospitals.. Ozone “active oxygen”, shown in many studies, is more effective than the chlorine in the elimination of viruses and bacteria that find great vitality in drinking water, providing a safe and effective alternative. Ozone is a natural gas with a very strong oxidizing power able to disin- fect and sanitize air, water and all surfaces with which it comes in contact. Moreover his action leaves no chemical residue in the envi- ronment, on food or on surfaces with which it comes in contact; after a very short time returns to oxygen, without creating hazardous by- products to health..
Food safety in the food chain and in the environment The great possibilities offered by ozone is to exclude or limit the use of antibacterial chemicals. Ozone has also been recognized as a sanitizer for food contact and work equipment because it acts against several other microorgani- sms, and especially does not leave any residue in that, after having reacted, decomposes into oxygen and does not leave unpleasant odors. Ozone in food processing environments decreases the contaminant environmental microbial population machined surfaces, carcasses and surfaces of animals and plants, reduces the level of toxic substances and environmental smelly, also improves COD and BOD of the aquatic environment . Finally, the ozone converts many non-biodegradable organic compounds in biodegradable state. In summary, the high oxidizing power and its spontaneous decomposition make it a valuable sanitizing act to ensure microbiological safety and quality of food products not leaving discarded chemicals. The process of sanitizing with Ozotek® is made with patented and certified equipment.

WATER TREATMENT
The use of ozone has many advantages in all activities where there is the use of gas and water treaties or subject to be monitored for microbial decontamination (bacteria, molds, viruses, etc.).
Currently the big cities like Amsterdam, Moscow, Paris, Turin, Florence, Bologna and Ferrara have systems that provide drinking water taken from rivers and treated with ozone. The advantage of ozone on chlorine, often used for water purification, is that the first sterilizes much better both against bacteria viruses; also the ozone does not alter the characteristics of the water, and in particular the flavor. Bacteria and fungi are destroyed by the action of ozone.
PRACTICAL USE OF OZONE IN FOOD AND ENVIRONMENTAL SECTORS
FOOD SECTOR • treatment of water used in washing and food processing; • disinfection of fruit and vegetables by spores of molds and yeasts, increased shelf-life; • washing and treatment of foods for IV range packaging; • deletion and inhibition of molds and mites in seasoning rooms; • maintenance of live seafood; • nebulization with ozonated water for disinfecting shoals of fish, vegetables and fruit; • disinfection of surfaces/equipments intended for contact with food; • treatment of the wineries, grapes and equipment and surfaces.
INDUSTRIAL SECTOR • disinfection of drinking water networks and storage;
Viruses, however, are inactivated, reaching a dosage of ozone in higher concentrations; the action of ozone would consist of a specific viral inactivation of the receptors used for the creation of the bond with the wall of the cell to invade. Both against viruses, that of the bacteria, it proves important the ozone dosage required to achieve sterilization. The purity of the water to be treated in any case raises the disinfectant properties, and this is explained by the loss of a part of ozone which reacts with components (chemistry) impure water instead of the germs. In the water the different bacteria show a variable sensitivity to ozo- ne, the Gram-negative are less sensitive than Gram-positive, spore- forming bacteria and the prove more resistant non-spore-forming. In industry, and in the food industry in particular, ozone is widely used for: - drinkable water
• disinfection of air, in public places, by mold spores and yeast;
- processing of sausage products (meat, guts) and cheese and curd rinse food containers and beverage
• optimization of the RABC system in industrial laundries;
- relaying of mussel and fish farming
• wastewater management;
- industrial cycles to maintain sterile and free of algae
• disinfection and optimization of irrigation and hydroponics water;
- tanks and distribution water networks
• disinfection of animals, structures and equipment of farms;
- oxidation of iron, manganese, phenols, with subsequent filtration Finally important use for disinfection is spraying ozonated water on foods display cases such as fish, vegetables and fruit.
• disinfection of enclosed environments for public use; • disinfection of premises controlled access such as cleaning-room and operating rooms in hospitals.
Disinfection of closed spaces for public use; disinfection of premises controlled access such as cleaning-room and operating theaters in hospitals.

Water purification Currently the big cities like Amsterdam, Moscow, Paris, Turin, Florence, Bologna and Ferrara have systems that provide drinking water taken from rivers and treated with ozone. The advantage of ozone on chlorine, often used for water purification, is that the first sterilizes much better both against bacteria viruses; also the ozone does not alter the characteristics of the water, and in particular the flavor. Bacteria and yeasts are destroyed by the action of ozone. Viruses, however, are inactivated, reaching a gas dosing at concentrations higher than that for the bacteria. The ozone action would lie in a subsequent oxidation and inactivation of specific viral receptors used for the creation of the bond with the wall of the cell to invade. Both against viruses, that against bacteria, it proves important to the ozone dosage required to achieve sterilization. While the process of destruction is clearly observable, for inactivation is good to refer to the effects of the type “all or nothing”, in the sense that at the bottom of an ozone viruses “threshold dosage” do not present specific activity and is not observable no effect. The purity of the water to be treated in any case raises the disinfectant properties, and this is explained by the loss of a part of ozone which reacts with components (chemistry) impure water instead of the germs. The temperature is an important factor that influences the germicidal: the low temperature elevates the sterilizing action to the amount of ozone dissolved in the liquid. This sensitivity is different, however, be understood in a relative sense; in fact ozone is considered an excellent disinfecting and sterilizing water and this effect has been widely used in water purification. In industry, and in the food industry in particular, ozone is widely used for: •
drinkable water
•
in the processing of sausage products (meat, guts) and cheese and curd
•
rinse food containers and beverage
•
