I was tasked with writing an article a couple months ago about water filters, and water purification, and in my research I came across information and products that use electrolytic Ozone to kill off germs and help purify your water.

Ozone is used in many industries including bottled water as a purification method.

Electrolytic Ozone is where the Ozone is actually created using the water itself, instead of just pumping the Ozone through it. This according to the company Roving Blue means a more thorough saturation, thus a better job of making the water safe.

Since the Ozone dissipates from the water there is no chemical aftertaste.

Ozone is a substance allowed in the production of organic products.

The Ozone producing products while not inexpensive may have uses for preppers who want to make the investment in this type of water purification.

Ozone is effective against this partial listing of microbes:

Bacillus anthracis (Anthrax)

Poliovirus (Poliomyelitis)

Salmonella paratyphi (Enteric Fever)

Dysentery bacilli (Diarrhea)

Legionella pneumophilia (Legionnaires’ Disease)
