Ozone (O3) consists of three oxygen atoms. In nature, it is created when ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun breaks down the oxygen molecule into two single oxygen atoms which quickly attaches itself to another oxygen molecule (O2) to become ozone, Ozone is also created electrically in nature during active thunderstorms. The electrical discharge, just like UV light creates ozone which gives that sweet smell we understand as clean fresh air.
Although Ozone (O3) is produced in nature to cleanse the environment, the benefits of Ozone (O3) in an indoor environment has to be controlled and ambient levels similar to the levels in nature.
Most countries adopt the OSHA standard for Industries and 50ppb for indoor air quality requirements confined to rooms, hospitals, nursing homes, offices etc. The maximum ozone exposure limit of 50 ppb is also adopted by ASHRAE for IAQ requirements.
