Sweez you asked,
Is there any hazard involve with ozone ??? Electricy & Oxgen. Is there any waste bi products that are produced? ,hazardous? Is is practical to have one on site? Are they easy to maintain? Is the training time to use a system reasonable? What requirement by the goverment to run a facility? I know very little about the process , just like the concept. I guess I'll have to DD.
I can't answer all your questions but this is a recent quote from Bill Stoddard:
"Ozone is a highly toxic material and could pose an occupational problem,' Epstein said. 'It can cause respiratory tract infections.' Stoddard, of CYCLOPSS, countered that ozone levels would stay under OHSA limits, and that controls would shut down the system if a leak developed."
Scientists don't think meat treated with ozone would prove harmful to consumers. And since ozone eventually turns back into oxygen, it would pose few environmental hazards after use. Many water treatment plants in the U.S. and other countries already use ozone, as do many bottled water companies.
A USDA spokeswoman, Jacque Knight, said 'if companies can show us they're producing a safer product, how they do it is up to them, as long as they meet our standards.' |
