Alkenes can be oxidized with ozone to form alcohols, aldehydes or ketones, or carboxylic acids.In a typical procedure, ozone is bubbled through a solution of the alkene in methanol at −78 °C (−108 °F; 195 K) until the solution takes on a characteristic blue color, which is due to unreacted ozone.
Ozone is a powerful oxidant (far more so than dioxygen) and has many industrial and consumer applications related to oxidation. This same high oxidizing potential, however, causes ozone to damage mucous and respiratory tissues in animals, and also tissues in plants, above concentrations of about 0.1 ppm .
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), in a broad sense, are a set of chemical treatment procedures designed to remove organic ... Ozone based AOP: [15]
Thus, ozone is mainly removed by ozone conversion. Both ozone creation and conversion depend linearly on oxygen atom concentration, but in ozone creation an oxygen atom must encounter an oxygen molecule and another air molecule (typically nitrogen) simultaneously, while in ozone conversion an oxygen atom must only encounter an ozone molecule.
Ozone is delivered (sparged) as a gas in either a dry air or oxygen carrier gas. Specialized equipment is required for in-situ oxidation via ozone gas injection. The ozone has to be pumped into the groundwater from the bottom of the aquifer because the ozone gas is less dense than the water.
It improves the oxidation efficiency of ozone. [1] Ozone micro/nano-bubble technology improves the disinfectant capacity of ozone. [2] Ozone is a strong oxidizing agent widely used in the treatment of printing and dyeing wastewater, [3] and coal chemical wastewater. [4]
Ozone (O3) is a trace gas which has been of concern because of its unique dual role in different layers of the lower atmosphere. [1] Apart from absorbing UV-B radiation and converting solar energy into heat in the stratosphere, ozone in the troposphere provides greenhouse effect and controls the oxidation capacity of the atmosphere.

NO x reacts with volatile organic compounds in the presence of sunlight to form ozone. Ozone can cause adverse effects such as damage to lung tissue and reduction in lung function mostly in susceptible populations (children, elderly, asthmatics). Ozone can be transported by wind currents and cause health impacts far from the original sources.
