Learn About Ozone and How to Monitor It Effectively

What Is Ozone?

Ozone, a colorless gas of three oxygen atoms, protects against UV rays in the upper atmosphere but becomes a harmful pollutant at ground level, contributing to smog and health risks indoors and in industries.

Sources of Ground-Level Ozone

Ground-level ozone forms when nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) react in sunlight. include:

• Vehicle exhaust
• Industrial emissions
• Household cleaning products
• Combustion by-products
• Indoor devices like UV sterilizers, laser printers, and ozone generators

Health Risks of Ozone Exposure

Short-term exposure to elevated ozone levels can cause:

• Chest tightness and breathing difficulty
• Coughing and throat irritation
• Worsened asthma or respiratory conditions
• Reduced lung function, even in healthy individuals

Long-term exposure may lead to chronic respiratory diseases and increased cardiovascular risks. Children, the elderly, and those with respiratory conditions are especially vulnerable.

Ozone Safety Range

According to WHO and EPA guidelines:

• Good Air Quality: 0–0.05 ppm (0–50 ppb)
• Moderate Risk: 0.051–0.1 ppm
• Unhealthy: 0.101–0.2 ppm
• Hazardous: Above 0.2 ppm

Even brief exposure above 0.1 ppm can cause symptoms, especially in enclosed areas.
