Abstract

Ozone generation by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is widely used in industry. Several DBD configurations can be used to generate ozone, which are classified in two main types depending on the geometry of the electrodes: volume DBD and surface DBD models. The aim of this work is to conduct a comparative experimental analysis between surface DBD and volume DBD ozone generators having a cylindrical geometry. This comparative investigation is carried out not only in terms of ozone concentration and energy efficiency, but also in terms of cooling performance. Two experimental setups were used in this work, one for measuring the ozone concentration (in mg/L) and the ozone rate production (in g/h) and a second for cooling experiments. The obtained results show that although the volume DBD model is the most frequently used in industry, the surface DBD reactor gives better results in terms of ozone rate production and cooling.
