Multifunctional DBD-Based Ozone Sterilizer with Ultrasonic Cavitation for Low-Temperature Treatment of Medical Tools

A pilot model of an ozone generator with a pulsed power supply has been developed. The ozone generator can be used for disinfection of domestic and industrial premises, in medicine and the chemical industry. Ozone is generated by a surface dielectric barrier discharge reactor (SDBD), consisting of 18 parallel-connected quartz tubes, inside and outside of which spiral the stainless steel high-voltage electrodes are wound. The measurements of the main parameters of the ozone generator showed that the ozone concentration reached 57 mg/l, and the output ozone concentration is 9.4 g/h. The developed design takes into account the technical features of the implementation of a particular type of discharge used, allows reducing energy consumption for ozone generation, having improved output parameters.

“…Low-temperature plasma sterilization is a very promising technology for sterilization of medical instruments which couldn't withstand high-temperatures during processing [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. The use of plasma sterilizers significantly reduces the time (up to 20…30 min) for sterilization of medical instruments.…”

An ozone destructor for a plasma ozone sterilizer has been developed. This is an improved model of an ozone destructor, consisting of two parts, which significantly increases the contact area of activated carbon with ozone. This destructor design is suitable for ozone concentrations of 100…120 mg/l at an oxygen flow rate of 1 l/min. A study was conducted to determine the dependence of the temperature of carbon at the contact point with ozone depending on the amount of decomposed ozone at various oxygen flow rate. It was monitored that output ozone did not exceed the maximum permissible concentration in the working area proving the effectiveness of the developed ozone destructor.

The programmable controller for ozone-plasma sterilizer for programmatic operation of the units and continuous monitoring of the sterilization process has been developed. The design of the controller is based on the model of the PIC18F series microcontroller of the XLP family. The software that ensures the operation of the plasma sterilizer (control and monitoring of parameters) is written in a specialized C++ software in the MPLAB IDE processing environment under the Windows 10 operating system.
