Solubility property of ozone is dependent on several extrinsic factors such as temperature, pressure, composition of the medium, pH, gas flow rate, etc. Henry’s law says that the pressure of the gas exerts above the liquid is directly proportional to the solubility of the ozone (Bablon et al., 1991). De Smedt et al. (2001) revealed that solubility of ozone is dependent on pH, temperature and type of additives of the aqueous solution. Levanov et al.

4.6.3 Corona spray pyrolysis: The limitation of the pneumatic spray pyrolysis is the low deposition efficiency, defined as the ratio of deposited to the supplied atom. The efficiency is increased by 80% by corona chamber due to control of the aerosol transport towards substrate (W. Siefert 1984;W.M. Sears 1988). Corona spray controls the trajectories of the individual atoms as long as contact with the substrate surface. Here, nitrogen used as the carrier gas to the aerosol mist delivered to the…
