This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop an electrochemical ozone generator to treat water for drinking and industrial processing. In the US, 85% of all public water systems serve fewer than 3,300 people. For providing these small unit drinking water systems, three congressional findings highlight the challenges. First, the small communities typically have a low tax basis making affordability a challenge unless the system is low in cost. Secondly, the small communities typically do not have technical experts to manage the water disinfection system thus posing a challenge that the system must be simple to operate. Third, the popular chlorine based systems will be outlawed in 2015 for drinking water systems according to the EPA Stage 2 Safe Drinking Water Act. To this end, Reactive Innovations, LLC is proposing to develop an electrochemical ozone generation system that produces ozone directly into a process flow stream using only ambient air and DC electrical power.The broader impacts of this research are a robust reactor platform is obtained that can be used for small and large scale water treatment processing. The US drinking water equipment market was $115M in 2005 growing at a compound annual rate of 5%. In addition to producing ozone for water and wastewater disinfection, the proposed electrochemical ozone generator may also be applied toward purifying water systems for semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and pulp/paper processing. These applications represent a worldwide water treatment market projected to be worth $11B by the year 2015.

这项小型企业创新研究（SBIR）I阶段项目将开发一种电化学臭氧发电机，以治疗饮酒和工业加工的水。在美国，所有公共供水系统中有85％的服务不到3300人。为了提供这些小型单位饮用水系统，三个国会调查结果突出了挑战。首先，小社区通常具有低税基，除非系统的成本低，否则可负担能力成为挑战。其次，小社区通常没有技术专家来管理水消毒系统，因此提出了挑战，即该系统必须易于操作。第三，根据EPA 2阶段2 Safe Dight Water Act，基于氯的流行系统将在2015年被禁止使用饮用水系统。为此，反应性创新，有限责任公司提议开发一种电化学臭氧生成系统，该系统仅使用环境空气和DC电力直接生产臭氧，直接将臭氧产生到过程流中。这项研究的更广泛的影响是可获得可靠的反应堆平台，可用于小型和大型水处理水处理处理。 2005年，美国饮用水设备市场以5％的复合率增长了1.15亿美元。除了生产用于水和废水消毒的臭氧外，提出的电化学臭氧发生器还可以用于净化水系统，用于半导体制造，药品，食品加工和纸浆/纸张处理。这些应用代表了一个全球水处理市场，预计到2015年的价值为$ 11B。
