Abstract

In traditional wastewater treatment, ozone injection efficiency is low. There is a need for the quantitative preparation of ozone-based microfine bubbles to balance bubble stability and ozone reactivity. To address this, we developed coaxial and T-type ozone-based microfine bubble generators and conducted experiments to compare their bubble production effects. The more effective generator was then compared with the traditional aeration method. The results indicate the following: 1. The coaxial type is more effective in producing ozone-based microfine bubbles. 2. The bubbles produced by the coaxial type have an average diameter of 0.2–0.4 mm and a residence time of ∼2 min, meeting microfine bubble standards. Experimental data analysis shows compliance with the force process and bubble growth mechanism under coaxial flow, meeting the requirements for quantitative and controllable ozone-based microfine bubble production. 3. Ozone bubbles from the coaxial method surpass those from traditional aeration in volume and concentration. More than 99.73% are microfine bubbles, with an ozone concentration of ∼84.5%. 4. The coaxial method more effectively reduces COD values in water, contributing to efficient wastewater treatment. This research presents new avenues for efficient sewage treatment.
