The Application of Non-Sinusoidal Resonance Inverter on An Ozone Generator

The implementation of non-sinusoidal resonance inverter on the ozone generator had been investigated in this paper. There are two models such as: model 1 was placed 2 (two) ring permanent magnets above the anode electrode, and below the cathode electrode, it was limited using the holder (nylon material) with magnetic conditions repelling each other, and the configuration of model 2 was similar with model 1 whereas this magnetic condition was attracting to each other. The plasma occurred between an anode electrode and solid dielectric, it was sharply clear using eyes, and it also can be captured using a digital camera. It is shown that the light intensity for model 2 is lower than model 1. Paint software in Microsoft was used as an image processing tool with invert color mode to analyze the plasma pictures. It is also stated that the micro discharge between the anode electrode and solid dielectric occurred intermittently. The current pulse in model 2 is more significant than model 1, that is proportional to micro discharge in the gap. The ozone gas production in model 2 was faster than model 1 with model 2 of 41.4 ppm per minute rather than model 1 of 32.4 ppm per minute. It can be concluded that the application of non-sinusoidal resonance inverter can be applied as the high voltage power supply for ozone generator that also induced by the magnetic field.
