Re: Ozonated gel
Duncan,
I've used ozone for all sorts but never tried ozonising oil so I can't talk directly from experience as far as oil is concerned but the trick to successfully ozonising water is to ensure that the air going into the generator is very dry which will allow the unit to develop its full capacity for generating ozone. After that, contact time between the ozone and the water is important so the bubbler should produce the finest bubbles possible and it helps to maximise contact time if the vessel where the reaction takes place is tall.
If your generator doesn't have its own air drier on the input, a simple air drier can be made by drawing the air through a silica gel bag that has been freshly dried in an oven. If that helps, you can buy dehumidifier cartridges based on slaked lime pellets which do a much better job.
