Patent ID: 8071526

Claim:
A method of producing an aqueous ozone solution for an industrial cleaning system, comprising: providing a reaction vessel for entraining ozone gas in an aqueous solution in an industrial cleaning system, comprising: a conical-shaped surface having a plurality of edges or ridges, the conical-shaped surface defining an interior, and the plurality of edges or ridges in contact with the interior; the reaction vessel in fluidic communication with a supply of fresh water; the reaction vessel in fluidic communication with a supply of a first aqueous ozone solution; directing the first aqueous ozone solution to the conical-shaped surface; directing the fresh water to the conical-shaped surface; crushing bubbles of ozone gas in the first aqueous ozone solution with the fresh water and reducing a bubble size of ozone gas in the first aqueous ozone solution in the reaction vessel; and mixing the fresh water and the first aqueous ozone solution to form a second aqueous ozone solution.
