Abstract

A tubular type ozone generator with inner and outer concentric electrodes and a middle dielectric member. One end is sealed to permit feed gas traversing the inner gap between the inner electrode and the dielectric member to reverse direction and to traverse the outer gap between the dielectric member and the outer electrode. A method for producing ozone using a tubular type ozone generator where first the total feed gas is passed in one direction between an electrode and the dielectric member for producing ozone, reversed, and then passed in the reverse direction between the dielectric member and the other electrode producing additional ozone. A hollow inner electrode permits more efficient cooling of the inner electrode. A plurality of ozone generators are combined with intake and output manifolds for the feed gas and produced ozone.
