In this paper, a control method of ozone generator for a tiny deodorizer is proposed, and also a cooling technique is described which is cooling down the flowing air gap into a silent discharger to $2[^{\circ}C]$ to generate ozone of high density and diffusing power. As the digital control system for this method, a double feedback loop is designed which detects the voltage and current of equivalent capacitor of the discharger and compensates for the poor power waveform caused by the noise at high discharging frequency. During the plant modeling of this system, computing time factor is considered as a unique parameter of the power system to improve the respond characteristics with regard to fluctuating load and to replenish the computing time delay of the controller. Through the experiment, sinusoidal input current for discharger can be acquired and all the effectiveness of this accurate control system over unstable ozone discharger are proved.

The oxidizing power of ozone is the greatest of all commercially available oxidizers and thus ozone is taking the place of chlorine for water treatment. For energy-effective treatment of water, ozone should be generated in high concentration. A silent glow discharge ozonizer is high effective in industrial aspect and thus is the most widely used. We found that the key parameters associated with the ozone generation rate are the driving voltage of the discharger, the discharge rate and the temperature of the ozone generation tube. For an easy control of these parameters, we build a monitoring system with graphical user interface. This system is based on Windows-98 PC, programmed with C++ and LabView.
