Can Ozone Sterilization kill COVID-19 Virus?

No medical event in recent history has made a bigger impact on global health and the economy, than Coronavirus, and the COVID-19 disease.

At the time of writing, most major economies are entering into some form of lockdown, causing significant disruption to businesses and drastically changing the way we live our lives for the next few months.

OZONE STERILIZATION PROVEN TO KILL SARS-COV VIRUS
There are currently no examples in the public domain, of ozone sterilization being used to kill the current strain of Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (technical name of the Coronavirus which causes the COVID-19 disease). However, there are reasons to believe it would be effective:



HOW DOES OZONE STERILIZATION KILL CORONAVIRUSES?
Coronaviruses are classified as “enveloped viruses”, which are typically more susceptible to “Physico-chemical challenges”. In other words, they don’t like being exposed to ozone.  

Ozone destroys this type of virus by breaking through the outer shell into the core, resulting in damage to the viral RNA. Ozone producted by Portable Ozone Generator can also damage the outer shell of the virus in a process called oxidation.


WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF OZONE STERILIZATION?

Breathing even small amounts of ozone can be harmful. Symptoms include coughing, shortness of breath, and aggravation of lung diseases like asthma. At higher concentrations you can smell ozone, but it becomes harmful even at lower doses. For that reason, many countries have set an 8-hour exposure limit of 70 ppb (parts per billion) ozone.


REDUCE THE RISK OF OZONE EXPOSURE BY MONITORING
The problem is that the equipment for measuring ozone is either a) accurate but too expensive, or b) affordable but not accurate. This is why Aeroqual came up with option c) monitors that are both accurate and affordable.
