O3 Greentech Application – Laundry

Who doesn’t want clean and fresh laundry. Whether it is on a small-scale basis like local laundries or large-scale basis like in multi-star hotels, the main criteria of well-laundered clothes are cleanliness, germ-free and skin-friendly.

Most of the laundries use chemicals for their operations, maybe because they are cheaper when bought in bulk, or because the laundry owners are ignorant of other options. As a result, the clothes they work on may not come out as clean as expected or may cause skin problems to their customers due to chemical residue.

Ozone – The Best Option for Safe and Skin-Friendly Laundry

Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen (O3) containing three Oxygen atoms. When put amongst organic and chemical contaminants, it rapidly reacts with them (oxidation) and forms compounds which can easily be filtered or removed leaving behind a much purer product.

For the laundry scenario, Ozone is the most beneficial option on various levels

Economic Advantage

• Replaces up to 21% of chemicals used in a laundry
• Saves up to 10% water because of less rinsing required
• Saves up to 5% electricity as a result of less water being used for rinsing
• Saves 86 to 90% of fuel because with ozone, there is no need to heat water.
• Saves up to 25% of efforts because of the reduced requirement of rinse cycle

Microbiological Advantage

• Reduces bacteria and viruses on the linens, wiping cloths and clothe
• Eradicates MRSA and Clostridium Difficile within 3-6 minutes of exposure
• Reduces any chances of cross-contamination and consequent illnesses

Practical Advantage

• Reduces overall discharge of water because of less water used for rinsing
• Lowers the amount of chemicals in the discharged water
• Results in lower Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) in the discharge water
• Improves number of loads because of shorter cycles
• Boosts energy conservation
