The picture below shows an industrial size ozone machine. It has twelve elements inside that create electric bursts of energy like lightling. Oxygen electrons are created. These electrons attach to oxygen atoms for a short time. During this time these electron help to clear the air. They also partially burn organic matter, and thereby help to disinfect the area. Eddie might use this machine for an hour to twenty-four hours, depending upon the need.

Ozone is a dangerous chemical and no one should be exposed to ozone more than necessary. Ozone does disappear quickly, however, once doors and windows are opened.

Eddie uses a cold plasma ozone generator. it creates pure oxygen gas that is created by dielectric barrier discharge. Oxygen atoms are split, and a single atom recombines with any two oxygen electrons form ozone.

This type of machine can produce a maximum concentration of about 5% ozone. It is a very expensive machine and literally eats itself. It is said to be "self-cannibalizing" because the gas it produces re-enters it many times, which causes it to degrade quickly.

Ozone generators like Eddie's are used for bleaching and killing microorganisms in air and water sources.

Low levels of ozone that are considered safe by the EPA are of little use in the crime scene cleanup business. To actually disinfect a room, a dangerous level of ozone is required. Therefore, it is best to stay away from operating ozone machines and rooms filled with ozone.

Hospitals and food factories are known to use ozone to help kill bacteria. Hospitals, for example, generate large quantities of ozone in surgery rooms between surgeries. Once cleaned and made airtight, the rooms are cleaned and ozne is used to neutralize bacteria. Overall, this is a less expensive disinfecting process than using chlorine or chlorine dioxide, which are even more corrosive than ozone.
