      ABSTRACT

      Purpose.The primary objective of this research is to develop a technology for achieving water quality at the level of Maximum Permissible Concentrations (MPC) required by sanitary regulations and norms.

      Methods. To meet these regulatory requirements, experimental studies were conducted to analyze the chemical and microbiological composition of water, focusing on parameters such as the total microbial count (quantity/ml), coliform bacteria (quantity/ml), coliphages (quantity/100 ml), clostridia (cl/20 ml), and other harmful substances. The research also examined water disinfection processes depending on the autumn and winter seasons of the year.

      Findings. To assess the device’s effectiveness, the research determined the optimal ozone concentration and contact time in the disinfection chamber. The findings indicate that 0.6 grams per hour (G = 0.6 g/hour) of ozone (O3) per cubic meter of surface water is sufficient for the removal of harmful microbiological substances.

      Originality. The primary innovation in this research lies in the establishment of parameters for an ozone generator utilizing a novel corona discharge method. The study introduces both theoretical frameworks and practical methodologies for effectively disinfecting surface waters using this innovative technique.

      Practical implications.This case study offers insights that can be applied and replicated in regions facing similar water quality challenges.

      Keywords: corona discharge, ozone, primary water, reservoir, ozonator, ozonated water
