Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
An apparatus for producing ozone from an oxygen-containing gas, comprising 1. a first pair of spaced electrodes of opposite polarity, 2. a first high voltage source connected to the electrodes of the first pair to establish an electrical discharge between the electrodes of the first pair, 3. a second pair of spaced electrodes of opposite polarity each covered with a dielectric layer, and 4. a second high voltage source connected to the electrodes of the second pair, a. the electrodes of the first and second pairs defining a channel of passage for the oxygen-containing gas and the dielectric layers each having a surface in the channel and in the path of the electrical discharge between the electrodes of the first pair to convert oxygen into ozone.
