The present disclosure generally relates to an ozone sanitizing system and method. In one embodiment, a system for sanitizing various objects using ozone gas is disclosed. The system comprises an ozone generating device configured to generate ozone gas for sanitizing one or more objects, and a vessel configured to couple with the ozone generating device for receiving the ozone gas to sanitize the one or more objects stored inside the vessel during an ozone sanitizing cycle. The system is configured to recirculate at least a gas mixture generated during the ozone sanitizing cycle to increase an ozone concentration inside the vessel.

An ozone generator includes a container, a first metal electrode, a dielectric electrode, a heat pipe, a heat sink, and a power supply unit. The first metal electrode is a cylindrical electrode the axial direction of which is a first direction, and disposed in the container. A cooling medium is supplied to an outer peripheral surface thereof. The dielectric electrode is a cylindrical electrode that is disposed to be opposed to an inner peripheral surface of the first metal electrode, and is coaxial with the first metal electrode. The heat pipe is disposed to be opposed to an inner peripheral surface of the dielectric electrode, and has electrical conductivity. The heat sink is disposed on the outside as an outer space of a space between the first metal electrode and the heat pipe, and connected to the heat pipe.

An ozone generator includes a discharge chamber; an inlet opening for feeding air into the discharge chamber; an outlet opening for removing ozone from the discharge chamber; and at least two cylindrical electrode sets in the discharge chamber. Each electrode set includes a ground electrode; a high voltage electrode; a dielectric between the ground electrode and the high voltage electrode; the dielectric separated from the ground electrode by a first discharge gap, and the dielectric separated from the high voltage electrode by a second discharge gap. A high voltage power supply provides a voltage impulse to the high voltage electrode of at least 2 kV (at least 5 kV is most cases), and a peak current of at least 1 ampere (at least 4 amperes in most cases). The high voltage power supply provides a dU/dt of the voltage impulse of between 5 kV/sec and 50 kV/sec.

The present disclosure relates to the ozone treatment of plants to reduce or eliminate pesticides, mold, yeast, or other pathogens. In an embodiment, the plant is exposed to ozone at a concentration of 150 to 250 ppm for between 15 and 65 minutes. The exposure of the plant to ozone reduces or eliminates pesticides, mold, yeast or other pathogens with little to no negative effects on the plants potency, flavor profile, fragrance, and weight.

An ozone generator unit includes a housing with a first half having a first recess and a second half having a second recess. The ozone generator unit further includes an inlet and an outlet in the housing, a first dielectric disc arranged within the first recess in contact with an inner surface of the first half, a second dielectric disc arranged within the second recess in contact with an inner surface of the second half, and a high voltage electrode, having a gas passage, arranged between the first and second dielectric discs. The high voltage electrode is spaced apart from the first and second dielectric discs using a first spacer and a second spacer to constitute a first gas chamber and a second gas chamber on either side of the high voltage electrode.
