Abstract
The scientific research investigates the neutralization and purification process of harmful microorganisms present in surface water using an ozonator device, which operates based on a pilot electric discharge method. A pilot ozonator based on a special high-frequency electric discharge has been developed for disinfection and cleaning of harmful microorganisms found in surface water. In order to conduct practical tests on scientific research work, special water was taken from the Ili floodplain and an examination of the water composition was carried out. The examination results revealed the presence of several harmful microorganisms in the source water, surpassing the maximum allowable concentration (MPC). Effective economic indicators of ozone content (mg/l), contact time (t, minutes) and the like were determined for disinfection and removal of microorganisms from the water composition. In addition, an algorithm for theoretical calculations for the destruction of harmful microorganisms in 1m3 surface water was compiled and a mathematical model was given.
