Abstract

COVID-19 is considered to be a fairly new, poorly studied disease. Since there is not currently an approved and effective method of treating it, a trend to use new methods for inactivating coronavirus, which is spread mainly by airborne droplets and through contact transmission, is growing. The efficiency of using corona discharge ozonizers for disinfection of medical premises was studied. The authors developed an ozonizer that operates on undried atmospheric air, and the laboratory tests were conducted in chamber boxes to determine the effect of ozone on the overall microbial contamination. It was found that single treatments for microbiological indicators do not give a deep effect, it is necessary to apply a cyclic mode of operation of the ozonizer. The side surfaces of chamber boxes are disinfected better than horizontal ones with a difference of 11 %. This is due to the greater bacterial contamination of horizontal surfaces. When disinfecting premises with ozone, it is necessary to observe the safety measures, choose the correct operating modes of the ozonizer and use gas analyzers.
