How does ozone destroy organics?
Oxidation of Organics – Pesticides, etc.: Ozone is a very powerful agent in treating organic materials. Organics are either natural (humic and fulvic acids) or synthetic (detergents , pesticides). Some organics react with ozone very rapidly to destruction, within minutes or even seconds (phenol, formic acid), whereas others react more slowly with ozone (humic, fulvic acids, several pesticides, trichloroethane, etc.). In some cases, organic materials are only partially oxidized with ozone. Soaking your meats and produce in Ozone water for 10 to 15 min. can greatly reduce contamination.
