What does ozone disinfection consist of?
Ozone is a gas that is found naturally in the upper layers of the atmosphere and is characterized by its high oxidizing power, which makes it a highly effective and safe solution for disinfection.
Ozone disinfection eliminates pathogens by oxidizing the coverage of viruses, bacteria and fungi and a wide spectrum of microorganisms, which are deactivated.
Once disinfected, ozone decomposes in the same way that occurs naturally in the atmosphere and returns to oxygen, leaving no chemical residue. This characteristic makes it the most environmentally sustainable option.
In this disinfection process, ozone acts as a powerful deodorizer, eliminating the origin of unpleasant odors, and it does not pose any risk to people, since its application always takes place in controlled environments with specially designed equipment.

Water treatment in agriculture.
The water that is applied through different irrigation systems for the correct development of crops can be very diverse, since it can come from rivers, lakes or continuous streams of natural water, wells, etc.
The main elements that make up irrigation water are the cations calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium and the anions carbonates, bicarbonates, chlorides, sulfates, nitrates and borates, on which the quality of irrigation water depends.
To know the content of nutrients and dissolved salts present in the irrigation water, it is convenient to perform a laboratory water analysis, since knowing the information provided by the irrigation water analysis, we can establish different strategies to have the best possible water quality.
The presence of these dissolved salts in the irrigation water can cause an increase in the salinity of the soil and this makes the plants unable to absorb the water correctly.
In order to obtain pure water, it is necessary to carry out different processes to create drinking water that is ideal for agriculture. All this in order to avoid problems of salinity or infiltration of water into the soil when certain levels of sodium content in the soil are exceeded in relation to those of calcium and magnesium, toxicity problems for plants or others derived from clogging in localized irrigation systems.
