Ozone Removes H2S from water

Ozone has recently been implemented in Clearwater, FL for the reduction of Hydrogen Sulfide, (H2S) in drinking water.

Read full story here!

H2S is a common contaminate in both surface and groundwater where high organic content is present.  Ozone can be used to break down H2S into water and sulfide by-products.  This will eliminate the foul smell and taste of H2S in drinking water.

The same results found on this 6.25 million gallon per day plant can be obtained for smaller municipalities, farms, and even homes.  Ozone Generators can produce ozone from ambient air and dissolve that ozone into water to treat H2S and other contaminates in water.

  1. Thanks for sharing. Is there any limit of H2S concentration in water whereby Ozone starts to become either technically not possible or commercially not viable.

    1. Technically no. However, as H2S levels increase it is very easy to flash off H2S using aeration alone. In applications where H2S levels are very high, we commonly use air injection to reduce the first 50-90% of the H2S and ozone to remove the final 10-50%.
