The Price Of Ozonation In The Paris (France) Suburbs

The purely economic aspects of ozonation have, until now, given rise to surprisingly few publications. Yet they are of ever-growing importance in deciding on the choice of a system, if only because the number of competitive technical solutions available for ozone production has greatly increased.

First of all, an obvious fact must be remembered. Each installation is a special case. It is therefore out of the question to present general results with direct across-the-board applications. On the other hand, it is possible to engineer a general methodology for price calculation and apply it to a few specific examples. As operator of a large number of these facilities, Compagnie Générale des Eaux can present economic results in many, widely different technological economic conditions.

Generally speaking, it can be said that the cost of ozonation is increasingly optimized. This technique, considered a few years ago as a luxury, is now technically and economically ready for incorporation on an equal footing in most treatment trains.
