Ozone is a powerful disinfectant that is more effective than chlorine and can be used for waste water treatment. It is generated on-site and is highly reactive, able to oxidize organic compounds and precipitate heavy metals. Ozone can be used to treat a variety of waste streams, including municipal, industrial, and mining waste water. It is effective at removing color, cyanide, pathogens, BOD, and emerging contaminants like pharmaceuticals.

Weiber's Multi function reactor is an ideal instrument for performing multiple functions as ascertaining Chemical
Oxygen Demand, i.e. COD and TP / TN. COD is necessary to ascertain the oxygen requirement of waste water prior to its release into the environment, so that it can be monitored and controlled to avoid harmful effects on the nature, human beings, etc.
Industrial wastewater treatment describes the processes used for treating wastewater that is produced by industries as an undesirable by-product. After treatment, the treated industrial wastewater (or effluent) may be reused or released to a sanitary sewer or to a surface water in the environment. Some industrial facilities generate wastewater that can be treated in sewage treatment plants. Most industrial processes, such as petroleum refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants have their own specialized facilities to treat their wastewaters so that the pollutant concentrations in the treated wastewater comply with the regulations regarding disposal of wastewaters into sewers or into rivers, lakes or oceans.

Water Pollution
Water pollution occurs in many different forms, is produced in a variety of ways, and has a range of effects on the biological and physical environment. Consider some common examples:
A river dashing down a steep mountainside cuts into its rocky bed and carries away sand, silt, and pebbles. When the river reaches flat ground, it deposits these materials on the river bottom.
A farmer spreads herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizer on her land, knowing the increase in crop value this practice will produce. During the next rain, some of those chemicals are washed away into the nearest lake, where they remain suspended for weeks or months.
A small crack develops in an underwater pipe that carries oil from an offshore drilling rig to a holding tank on land. Crude oil seeps out of the crack and into the ocean, where marine plants and animals are exposed to its toxic effects.
This was considered as safe and probably the only economical method of Dialysis water production The use of storage tanks can eliminate the problem of maintaining proper
sanitation in the storage tanks through the application Ozone disinfection.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

2. Waste Water Treatment
3,000 times more germicidal than chlorine
160 times more bactericidal than sulphur dioxide
37 times more bactericidal than formaldehyde
1.7 times more bactericidal than hydrocyanic acid
3. Waste Water Treatment
Ozone (O3) is an allotrope of Oxygen (O2). It is 1.5
times as dense as oxygen and 12.5 times more
soluble in water and leaves no residuals or
byproducts except oxygen and a minimal amount
of carbon dioxide and water.
Ozone is highly unstable and must be generated
on site.
Its oxidation potential (-2.07V) is greater than that
of hypochlorite acid (-1.49V) or chlorine (-1.36V),
4. Application in WASTE WATER
• Oxidation of organic waste.
• Cyanide destruction.
• Ground water petrochemical oxidation.
• Heavy metal precipitation.
• Pulp & paper effluents.
• Textile Mill effluents.
• Textile Dye, Starch, FOG (Fate, Oil, Grease) elimination.
• Pesticide, herbicide and insecticide elimination.
• BOD reduction of domestic waste.
• Secondary treatments for municipal waste water.
• Mining heavy metal precipitation.
5. Waste Water Treatment
COLOUR REMOVAL
Surface waters are generally colored by natural
organic materials such as humic, fulvic and tannic
acids. These compounds result from the decay of
vegetative materials and are generally related to
condensation products of phenol like compounds; they
have conjugated carbon/carbon double bonds. When
the series of double bonds extend upwards of twenty,
the color absorption shows up in the visible spectrum.
Ozone is attracted to break organic double bonds. As
more of these double bonds are eliminated, the color
disappears. Surface water can usually be decolorized
when treated with 2 to 4 ppm of Ozone.
6. Waste Water Treatment
REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS
Ozone oxidizes the transition metals to their higher
oxidation state in which they usually form less
soluble oxides, easy to separate by filtration. e.g.
iron is usually in the ferrous state when it is
dissolved in water. With ozone it yields ferric iron,
further oxidized in water to Ferric Hydroxide that is
very insoluble and precipitates out for filtration.
Other metals: Arsenic (in presence of Iron),
Cadmium, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Lead,
Manganese, Nickel, Zinc - can be treated in a
similar way. At Ozone levels above 4 ppm
however, Manganese will form soluble
permanganate, showing up as a pink color.
7. Waste Water Treatment
Treatment in Water
Ozone has been used for many years to treat
pathogens such as bacteria and algae in water for
applications such as drinking water supplies and air
conditioning system cooling water. More recently,
most water bottlers have adopted ozone. Ozonated
water for treatment of fruit, vegetables, fish, etc. in
the U.S. awaited the GRAS approval. Now that has
happened, and projects are emerging everywhere. A
basic difference over other ozone-in-water
applications is that the ozone contact time with the
food product must be very short. The carrots, fresh
fish fillets, or whatever must be processed in an
assembly line in at most a few minutes.
8. Waste Water Treatment
Treatment in Water (continue.)
Ozone concentrations in water of 1-10 ppm (1 ppm = 1
mg/L) are reported. About 2 ppm is a commonly
reported concentration for treatment times of a few
minutes. Tripling this concentration can reduce the
treatment time to a minute or so in many cases. The
concentration of ozone required to achieve a given
reduction of CFU levels varies by fruit, vegetable,
species of fish, etc. as well as ambient considerations.
The concentration of the ozone in the water varies as a
function of the feed gas ozone concentration (usually
over 1% or over 10,000 ppm of ozone) and the water
temperature (The maximum concentration increases
with colder water). Ozone's effectiveness in wash water
may be significantly reduced when the biological oxygen
demand (BOD) of the water is more than 500 mg/L. In
this case, the BOD must be reduced before the ozone
treatment stage.
9. Waste Water Treatment
IMPROVED COAGULATION & TURBIDITY REMOVAL
Oxidation of dissolved organic materials by Ozone
results in polar and charged molecules that can
react with Polyvalent Aluminum or Calcium to form
precipitates. Treatment of a surface water with up to
0.5 ppm of Ozone results in a decrease in turbidity,
improved settle ability and a reduction in the
number of particles. Referred to as pre-ozonation
this treatment destabilizes the colloid with a
resultant reduction of the amount of coagulant
needed to produce a clear filtrate.
10. Waste Water Treatment
ALGAE REMOVAL
Ozonation of a water contaminated with Algae
oxidizes and floats the Algae to the top of the
reservoir. The ozone will also oxidize the metabolic
by-products of the Algae and remove the undesirable
odor and taste.
14. Waste Water Treatment
Worldwide there are many installations using
conventional ozone generators with a concentration
of 1 -2 % by weight.
EnviroSafe's high concentration ozone generators
deliver ozone grater then above output by weight
speeding up process by POU & POE.
By utilizing our high concentration ozone generators
in your process... You can save time & money. Let us
show you how.
Below is a typical layout with ozone used also as a
flocculants in the process.
Note: A treatment scheme can only be determined
after review of a complete analytical report on the
water.

COOLING TOWER
OZONE has a firm track record in cooling tower treatment, Find out
how EnviroSafe can help you to greatly cut your energy costs and
water consumption with ozone. Please contact us and tell us about
your application for ozone.
Treatment in the above layout is done directly in the pipe (after
the venturi) and also in the cooling tower basin with a side-stream
recycling loop.Utilizing a fully automated system may be
employed, thus controlling the cycling (ON/OFF) of the Oxygen
and Ozone generators as well as the Recycling pump as the
ozone demand of the tower water changes.

20. Why Ozone ?
• Powerful disinfectant
• No residual (compared to chlorine)
• Stronger oxidant (compared chlorine/UV)
• Three ozone plants in Southern Nevada
– AMS 600 MGD drinking water
– River Mountains 300 MGD drinking water
– Big Bend (Laughlin) 20 MGD drinking water
• Ozone proven technology for disinfection &
contaminant removal
21. Emerging Contaminants
• 1994: Britain discovers fish below WWTP
outfalls with symptoms of exposure to
estrogenic compounds
• 1996: USGS reports similar findings in carp
from the Las Vegas Bay, Lake Mead
• 1996: EPA reports endocrine disruption in fish
from Minnesota near WWTPs
• 1996: Amendment to SDWA mandates EPA
develop a screening program for EDCs
• 1997: SNWA initiates monitoring and fish
studies for EDCs
22.
23. SNWA EDC Research
• 1997: Initial screening of LV Wash & Lake
– Estrogen compounds detected in Wash & Bay
– No estrogens detected in drinking water
– First detection of pharmaceuticals
• 1998: Fish caged in Lake Mead
– Subtle differences in fish from LV Bay, but not
dramatic as seen in USGS studies
• 2000: DOD funded study of fish
– Small differences among LV Bay & Overton
– Perchlorate not related to EDC effects in fish
• 2003-Current: Monitoring of Lake Mead
38. Ozone is effective for disinfections and
removal of emerging contaminants
• No perfect treatment
• RO/NF membranes = brine and water loss
• Activated carbon = disposal/regeneration
• Disinfection = byproducts
• Ozone can remove cellular estrogenicity
• Effects on fish should be evaluated
• European scientists found same effect
39. Conclusions
• Southern Nevada has extensive history & expertise
in ozone technology
• Costs for ozone and UV are comparable for
disinfection in reuse application
• UV is not oxidative at disinfect dose
• Ozone provides disinfection & oxidation
• UV subject to regrowth post-disinfection
• Neither UV nor ozone have residual issues
• Contact times from pilot would be realistic
• ≈ 8-20 min contact time for ozone
• ≈ 90 min contact time for chlorine
40. Waste Water Treatment
Benefit of Swimming Pools
• Eliminate red, irritated eyes
• Reduce handling and storage of unsafe chemicals
• Reduce traditional chemical (chlorine/bromine) use
60%-90%
• Eliminate foul chlorine/chloramines odors
• Eliminate foaming / “bathtub ring”
• Eliminate constant repurchase of chemicals
• Eliminate costly replacement of faded swimwear
• Eliminate environmental worries
41. Waste Water Treatment
Hospital Wastewater Treatment
Ozone can be utilized to treat wastewater generated from hospitals and
the medical community. Due to the superior oxidation properties of
ozone over conventional treatments and our CD OZONE's high ozone
concentration at over 6% by weight, we can (and have) gone after these
complex waste streams with very good results. If you have a specific
problem you are trying to resolve, please contact us with more details
and see how ozone may be employed for your case.
42. Waste Water Treatment
Ozone is effective against a large variety of water treatment problems. In general, the
more problems in the water to be treated with ozone, the less an ozonation system
costs when compared to other traditional treatment methods. When comparing the
ECONOMIES
cost of an ozonation system with other treatment systems there are some key factors
to consider; here are a few:
• There is no need to purchase, ship or store chemical oxidants or
disinfectants
• There is no labor for handling.
• Many health and safety concerns are reduced or eliminated.
• Because ozone reacts so much more quickly there is opportunity
for substantial savings in space requirements for the treatment
system.
• Because ozone treatment design is flexible, one of the variety of
installations can be adapted to any fit any design circumstance.
• It is likely that much of your existing treatment facilities are
adaptable to an ozone based treatment system.
• The pay back of your investment can be surprisingly short.
