A system for creating an oxidation reduction potential (ORP) in water employs a manifold. The manifold includes an enclosure containing a plurality of fluid paths and having one or more ozone intake ports. The ozone intake ports are fluidically coupled to one or more ozone output ports of an ozone supply unit housed in a separate enclosure. A plurality of flow switches are disposed within the enclosure and configured to transmit control signals to one or more controllers of the ozone supply unit in response to sensing a flow of water through the fluid paths in order to cause the ozone supply unit to generate ozone. A plurality of fluid mixers are also disposed within the enclosure. The fluid mixers are fluidically coupled to the ozone intake ports and configured to introduce the ozone generated by the ozone supply unit into the water flowing through the fluid paths.

Embodiments of the subject invention relate to a small modular self-contained surface plasma device for decontamination of air and surfaces within enclosed volumes. Embodiments of the subject invention relate to a method and apparatus using the technical process of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) surface plasma generation from ambient atmosphere for decontamination of air and surfaces within enclosed volumes. The primary application mode is for preservation of perishable commodities within industrial shipping containers through reduction of surface spoilage organisms and destruction of evolved gaseous ethylene that causes premature ripening. Additional implementations include deployment for oxidation of surfaces and/or container atmospheres in applications to diminish or eradicate pesticides, toxins, chemical residues, and other natural or introduced contaminants. Other embodiments envisioned include incorporation of device capabilities and or ancillary modules for feedback input (e.g. ozone sensor(s) to maintain steady state levels, self-tuning circuitry to adjust operating frequency), communication (e.g. among modules, RFID data loggers, Wi-Fi output), and programing (e.g. user input of container volume, transit time, ozone level, etc.).

A method includes: storing a first flow rate from an oxygen mass flow controller for supplying an oxygen with an ozone generator turned off and measuring a flow rate of the oxygen supplied to the ozone generator, and a second flow rate from at least one ozone mass flow controller provided in flow paths; supplying the ozone into a processing container via the flow paths to perform multiple times a predetermined ozone-based process; acquiring a third flow rate from the oxygen mass flow controller and a fourth flow rate from the at least one ozone mass flow controller, by supplying the oxygen with the ozone generator turned off during a predetermined period between the ozone-based processes; and determining whether the fourth flow rate is a normal value by comparing the first and second flow rates with the third and fourth flow rates, respectively.
