"Hazardous Ozone Generators Sold as Air Purifiers - Updated May 5, 2006

Some devices that are advertised as “air purifiers” or air cleaners purposely emit large amounts of ozone, the main component of smog! Not only are such ozone generators ineffective at cleaning indoor air, but breathing ozone poses serious health risks. The Air Resources Board recommends that ozone generators not be used.

The following is a partial list of portable ozone generators that are sold as air purifiers, primarily for residential use. Inclusion on this list is based on information available at the time of review. Exclusion from this list is not to be construed as endorsement by the California Air Resources Board. Ozone generators intended for commercial use, and in-duct systems or other non-portable devices, are not listed here but may generate potentially harmful levels of ozone.
This list (updated May 5, 2006) will be updated periodically as information becomes available."

REBUTTAL
Edited July 27,2007

(1) "Some devices that are advertised as “air purifiers” or air cleaners purposely emit large amounts of ozone"
 
What is considered a large amount of ozone when OSHA chart shows exposure of 50 ppm for 10 minutes or more? OSHA's Standards are 0.1 ppm for an eight hour day of exposure to factory workers.  
(2) "ozone the main component of smog!"
Quote: McGraw Hill of Science 7th Edition "Ozone occurs to a variable extent in the earth's atmosphere. Near the earths surface the concentration is usually 0.02-.03 ppm in country air, and less in cities except when there is smog; under smog conditions in Los Angeles ozone is thought to be formed by the action of sunlight on oxygen of the air in the presence of impurities, and on a bad day the ozone concentration may reach 0.5 ppm or more for short periods of time."
 
The O3 eliminates the contaminants that creates smog. If it was part of the smog, the smog would remain.
(3)
"Not only are such ozone generators ineffective at cleaning indoor air,"
EPA's Executive Summary Report # 68D98118  proves just the opposite when O3 is manufactured by the cold plasma process.
(4) "but breathing ozone poses serious health risks." There is not one reliable report that will substantiate this statement. In fact, there are hundreds of Doctors that have used ozone oxygen therapy since 1850 for many cures including cancer. A list of Doctors in California are among this National and International list.     -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I asked Tom Phillips, of the California Air Research Board, by email to remove Odatus from their list.

Dear Messrs. Petrano and Shannon:
We have carefully reviewed the information on your websites, but our findings and information on your websites still indicate to us that some of your models are ozone generators and are correctly listed on our website as such. Where? We did find the documentation of FDA approval of your device under 21 CFR 880.5045 as a Class II air cleaner (ESP and filter type), but not under FDA's regulations for ozone emissions from medical devices, 21 CFR 801.415, Maximum acceptable level of ozone. (Of course not, it is not an ozone generator as you know it!)

Please send us documentation of test results and test methods used to show compliance with 21 CFR 801.415, Maximum acceptable level of ozone, which is the relevant standard for this device.  Please include quality control and quality assurance documentation for the test procedures.  Either electronic or hard copy versions are fine; hard copies can be sent to Tom Phillips at the address listed in the signature block below.  (The Odatus is a cold plasma generator, it is not an ozone generator as you know it!)
Your website on conformance with European Community directives (http://odatus.com/CE-Docket.html) indicates that your devices meet UL 867, impact test and grounding resistance test.  We did not see any mention of the UL 867 test for ozone emissions.  (There is no such thing!) Please send us any available documentation of test results and test methods used to show compliance of your products with the ozone emission portion of UL 867, (Odatus is not an
electrostatic air cleaners) and with any other ozone standards such as Europe's' Blue Angel standard. (Odatus is not a copier!)   Please include quality control and quality assurance documentation for the test procedures. (The Odatus is a cold plasma generator, it is not an ozone generator as you know it!)

Your website claims or implies that USEPA endorses the cold plasma ozone technology for indoor air cleaning.  However, the EPA's 1999 Executive Summary Report appears to be an executive summary of a feasibility study, rather than an endorsement or recommendation, and a complete final report is not available on the IAQARA or USEPA websites. Please send us a copy of the complete final report (see iaqara.us) for this and any subsequent work funded by USEPA on cold plasma ozone technology for indoor air cleaning. The EPA Final Report "cannot be overstated".

Thank you in advance,
Tom Phillips

Mr. Phillips and Californian's, I fought CSA for a year on this same subject. I posted this web site CSA FRAUD FORCED BY POLITICS? and intend to keep it available to the public. I, now will do the same with this site. I find it more rewarding to utilize government slander and propaganda than to fight it, especially when government agencies are deliberately wrong.

Your Comments are welcomed - Email: odatus@odatus.org 
Please share this page with a friend. Oh, halogen lights, electric motors, copiers, and other products produce a tremendous amount of ozone. Some, more than any of these machines listed.
 

THE TRUTH
The following statements are made by the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

Titled:
"
Ozone Generators that are Sold as Air Cleaners:
An Assessment of Effectiveness and Health Consequences"

Page: http://www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/ozonegen.html
Published September, 1997 (A
10 Year old document)

How is Ozone Harmful?
The same chemical properties that allow high concentrations of ozone to react with organic material outside the body give it the ability to react with similar organic material that makes up the body, and potentially cause harmful health consequences. Under Conclusions 1/3 down on this link: When inhaled, ozone can damage the lungs. Relatively low amounts can cause chest pain, coughing, shortness of breath, and, throat irritation. Ozone may also worsen chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and compromise the ability of the body to fight respiratory infections. People vary widely in their susceptibility to ozone. Healthy people, as well as those with respiratory difficulty, can experience breathing problems when exposed to ozone. Exercise during exposure to ozone causes a greater amount of ozone to be inhaled, and increases the risk of harmful respiratory effects. Recovery from the harmful effects can occur following short-term exposure to low levels of ozone, but health effects may become more damaging and recovery less certain at higher levels or from longer exposures (US EPA, 1996a, 1996b).

What are ozone and particulate matter?  (In the same link above)
Ground level ozone is the prime ingredient of smog, the pollution that blankets many urban areas during the summer. When inhaled, even at low levels, ozone can cause respiratory problems and aggravated asthma in children, the elderly, those with respiratory disease, and even otherwise healthy adults who are working or exercising outside on a smoggy day. Children are most at risk from exposure to ozone because they are often active outside in summertime smog. Long-term exposures to ozone may lead to premature aging of the lungs and chronic respiratory illnesses.


The Hard Facts

The official birthday of EPA "Environmental Protection Agency" is December 2, 1970.  Now, 37 years old and was originally established to "protect the outdoor environment."  http://www.epa.gov/history/topics/epa/15c.htm

According to the above, the EPA was never
, and is not to this day, a medical agency nor does it have a medical staff. It appears that the EPA gained their authority or "degree" in medicine. How else can the EPA make medical statements like the ones above? Is the EPA now in to protecting human organisms?

Another government arm, The Federal Trades Commission (FTC) clearly states:  "Subject to the Federal Trades Commission (FTC) Act, Section 5(a)(1), 15 U.S.C. & 45(a)(1). This section references, "At the time of making such representation, respondents possess and rely upon competent and reliable scientific evidence that substantiates the representation."

We the people must comply with the FTC Act. It appears obvious that the EPA or the FDA is immune to FTC laws. Do they have a license to lie to the public? Unfortunately the answer seems to be YES.

To add, the very same EPA that is responsible for the above statements, produced two years later, in 1999, their Executive Summary report that is completely the opposite. This study costing the tax payers $300,000.00 that states: "Microbe destruction occurs through attack by atomic oxygen and oxygen radicals created by the plasma. It was furthermore shown that 99.99% of the captured microorganisms could be destroyed by the short-term application of the One Atmosphere Uniform Glow Discharge Plasma." "The principal application is hospital ventilation with secondary applications in office buildings, schools, and other facilities."
See the EPA's Executive Summary Report

"One Atmosphere Uniform Glow Discharge Plasma" is  (One Atmosphere - 15.7 psi at sea level) (Uniform Glow - an ozone generator plate that glows in the dark evenly across the plate) and (Discharge Plasma - the plate expels a gas called ozone.)

Ask yourself, what is atomic oxygen? It is O3, ozone, one more single "O" added to the oxygen molecule O2, oxygen. Then what is cold plasma O3? There must be a difference in manufacturing ozone "O3" if one is hazardous to your health and the other is beneficial. The only diffeence here, is EPA and "FDA" Food and Drug Administration's propaganda.

Obviously, in 1997, the EPA was under the directive of the FDA that had the powers given to them by Congress to utilize other government agencies like "EPA" to do as they see fit for what ever they see fit.
The 1997 EPA statements above are medical not environmental! It looks like the FDA is responsible for this propaganda using EPA labeling.

FDA FACTS:

1968 Senator Edward Long holds U.S. Senate hearings where Dr. Herbert Ley, FDA Commissioner testifies that the FDA "protects" the big drug companies and are subsequently rewarded, and using the government's police powers they attack those who threaten the big drug companies.
"People think what the FDA is protecting is them. It isn't. What the FDA is doing and what the public thinks it's doing are as different as night and day."
"First it is providing a means whereby key individuals on its payroll are able to obtain both power and wealth through granting special favors to certain politically influential groups that are subject to its regulation. This activity is similar to the 'protection racket' of organized crime: for a price, one can induce FDA administrators to provide 'protection' from the FDA itself. Secondly, as a result of this political favoritism, the FDA has become a primary factor in that formula whereby cartel oriented companies in the food and drug industry are able to use the police powers of government to harass or destroy their free market competitors. "And thirdly, the FDA occasionally does some genuine public good with whatever energies it has left over after serving the vested political and commercial interest of its first two activities."
Barry Lynes, "The Healing of Cancer" Marcus Books, Queensville, Ontario, Canada.

37 Years later:

From MSNBC.COM   - Medical journal: FDA compromised May 17, 2001
May 17 —
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, guarding the health of 274 million Americans, is compromised by funding from the drugs industry and pressure from Congress, the editor of a top British medical journal said Friday (the world’s most powerful drug watchdog, which regulates products worth over $1 trillion, endangering the lives of people and being a servant of the pharmaceutical industry. The story from: http://www.msnbc.com/news/574969.asp

It is believed that in 1998-99 the EPA was challenged to produce competent and reliable scientific evidence that substantiates the representation. The EPA conducted a study to prove the differences in ozone producing machines, if any, that was questioned in the CSA attack and The Health Canada rebuttal. The EPA hired test at research institutions like: University of Tennessee Plasma Science Laboratory, John Hophins University Applied Physics Lab, University of Maryland, Battelle Memorial Institute, Aberdeen Proving Ground-Edgewood Area and others, prove that cold-plasma generated environments will kill these anaerobic microbial contaminants. One study showed: "The BG spore (anthrax) data indicated that the plasma environment deactivated the bacteria spores with an efficiency of 99.9999%." In simple terms, virtually all of the anthrax was killed by the activated oxygen singlets.

It is apparent, that the 1999 Executive Summary Report, produced by the EPA, gained competent and reliable scientific evidence for the EPA that not only proves but contradicts the alledged FDA's medical dictations in the EPA 1997 report shown above.

BOTTOM LINE: Is your health compromised by politics? Have you got a sick building or home? Could you be liable for a suit due to a sick environment?

You must ignore politics and fix your environment with what works. Try using years of tracked records with Odatus® cold-plasma O3 REGISTERED WITH THE EPA AS A PESTICIDE DEVICE that has lab reports to prove competent and reliable scientific evidence of effectiveness in occupied areas. Besides, you wouldn't want to challenge the above study by the list of institutions or their scientific evidence hired by and paid for by the EPA.  Funny, the testing institutions didn't mention "ozone" in any of their test studies and references. Ozone has been portrayed by U.S. Government Agencies to be something harmful. In fact, it is just the opposite!

IAQARA has enough documentation to disqualify any EPA, FDA, AIHA, ALA, ACS, AHA, material presented to a court of law on the subject of ozone being harmful. In fact, none of these agencies have produced any documentation that it is. WHAT SOME GOVERNMENT AGENCIES PRINT, IS FAR FROM THE TRUE.

U.S. Hospitals Plagued by Ten Times More MRSA Superbug Infections than Previously Thought

Sadly, see more: Type into the "SEARCH" box, "FDA Fraud" or http://www.newstarget.com


Get your facts together on ozone vs cold plasma.

(1) Authority: Dr. Clark Thorp, Ph.D., M.D. Acting Chairman, Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Armour Research foundation, Illinois Institute of Technology. "Pure Ozone is non-toxic even in concentrations as great as 20 to 50 parts per million of air". Hill, a physician specializing in industrial hygiene states, "Pure ozone is not poisonous in any sense of the word as it breaks down in contact with the mucous membrane and only oxygen remains."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(2) Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language   Copyright 1989

"ozone: 1. a form of oxygen, O3, having three atoms to the molecule, with a peculiar odor suggesting that of weak chlorine, produced when an electric spark is passed through air or oxygen. It is found in the atmosphere in minute quantities, esp. after a thunderstorm, and is a powerful oxidizing agent: used for bleaching, sterilizing water, etc. 2. clear, fresh, invigorating air: I'm going outside to fill my lungs full of ozone."

Invigorating Air "invigorating: to give vigor to; fill with life and energy: to invigorate the body."

"vigor: 1. active strength or force. 2. healthy physical or mental energy or power; vitality. 3. energetic activity; energy; intensity. 4. force of healthy growth in any living matter or organism, as a plant."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(3) WHAT IS COLD PLASMA O3

Activated oxygen manufactured by cold plasma generator plates is a relatively new technology that uses only the O2 molecule and because of "a no heat process" used in the Odatus®, it does not produce significantly any other off gasses such as nitric oxide. It is said that because of cold plasma, man has created the most purest O3 ever made out of ambient air. Simply put, cold plasma breaks the O2 molecule into two single O's without using heat and forces the single O's out through a restricted space encouraging their escape through a crowded magnetic field reforming (bonding) them into O3's for a given time. Once made and thrown out into the environment, a little heat like 90 or so degrees the (half life) of the O3 is shortened. In the presence of colder air (60 degrees or less) the half life is prolonged to well over an hour. The same science as placing any molecules in a refrigerator to decrease its molecular activity, like milk.
The "cold" in cold plasma is meant as low electric current proposed to "hot" a high electrical current which of course would cause an arcing.  Arcing like a welding rod causes heat thus influencing other gasses to occur from ambient air.
A capacitor holds electricity and will severely arc on a discharge.  A cold plasma generator works like a capacitor having a regulated electrical leak allowing the high voltage to evenly bleed off constantly making very steady clean O
3, no arcing. Dictionary:  plasma; Physics. An electrically neutral, highly ionized gas composed of ions, electrons, and neutral particles. It is a phase of matter distinct from solids, liquids, and normal gases.

Activated oxygen using cold plasma plates is the obvious prescription for "Sick Building Syndrome" and enhancing Indoor Air Quality.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember, it is your health, your building or home, your liability, and your responsibility alone.  It is also the EPA (under the directive of the FDA) that might be the first to condemn your facility. Help EPA by supporting their 1999 Executive Summery Report.
