The Introduction of Ozone and Intensive Water Treatment Systems for
Purification into the UK
The authority on seafood
Ozone (O ) is:
A colourless, unstable, toxic gas with a pungent odour and powerful oxidizing propertiesFormed from oxygen by electrical discharges or ultraviolet light. It differs from normal oxygen (O2) in having three atoms in its molecule (O3).

O Used for purification in:
ItalySpainFranceJapan
UK Crustacea FAO Bivalve hatchery + Purification Plants

Depuration is
The removal of low level bacteria( 4,600 cfu E.coli)Animals purge themselvesOptimum metabolismControl environment in tankUV is meant to keep the water clean during process
The authority on seafood
From 1995
most systems based on 6 x Seafish designs42 Hours minimum immersion time for all speciesUsing UV onlyNo attempt to remove ammonia or introduced suspended solids and contaminants
The authority on seafood
Effiacy of UV can be reduced
Suspended solidsDiscolouration of Quartz
tubeAge of lampOperating TemperatureInappropriate flow rates
The authority on seafood
Cross- contamination in tanksWhen clean seawater is introduced into a tank of shellfish, the animals inoculate that water, with material from the harvesting grounds and continue to do soFaecal material from one animal and its by-products may be ingested by other animals in the tank.O could reduce this cross contamination
The authority on seafood
Ozone (O )Is a powerful oxidising agentUsed for disinfection of water and airinactivates pathogens, oxidize organic wastes (including colour) and nitrite, or supplement the effectiveness of other water treatment units.Very unstable, half life in seawater reported as = 5.3sOxygen is produced as a reaction end product

Production of ozone
By electricityAlso by U.V.Produced at UV < 200 (nm) nanometerDestroyed at 254 (nm)UV used for purification = 254nm as biocidal optimumTherefore insert O before UV

Application of ozone into a purification tank
Via venturiBubble diffuserintegrating a micro-bubble generating a gas-liquid dispersion device ensuring maximised mass transfer
The authority on seafood
How much O should be applied
FAO state... Ozone at a concentration not exceeding 0.5 mg/l (in order to minimize bromate production see below) can be used to treat seawater in batches for periods up to 10 minutes.
CEFAS ...or suitable time/dose equivalent has been added.
Difficult to measure O directlyAdvise use Oxidation/Reduction Potential (ORP)Measured in mV using Redox meter

0.2 300 30 Good quality natural waterdesired minimum level foraquaculture
0.3 400 3 Upper limit for aquacultureand aquariums
0.4 500 2 Damage to the epithelialtissues if aquatic life
0.5 600 1 Severe damage to aquaticlife, near 100% disinfection
0.6 700 0 Above 700mv completedisinfection. Swimming pools,potable water treatment.
Untreated Seawater ~200mV (remember, pH and t c variability)FAO: ~600mVFSA: no un-reacted O to reach animalsSeafish: 10% above, untreated starting point mVControl = Use to much and the animals die.

Degassing un-reacted OProtein skimmer by itself adds nothing,
will remove suspended solids and proteins
Apply the O into protein skimmer
Any un-reacted O is degassed to atmosphere
The authority on seafood
Bromate formationPotential for brominated organic by-productsPotential carcinogenNo evidence take up by shellfishRequires bromide salts (are present in natural seawater )Bromate level allowed in tap water = 10µg/l
Not high risk in artificial seawater(Bromide not in the salts)Granulated activated carbon filter will remove from seawater.

Live Biological filter
a substrate is provided for the growth of a biofilm that utilizes oxygen to convert ammonia and nitrites to nitrates, and oxidize organic matterIt cleans the water
