The use of an oxygen generator based on pressure swing adsorption technology (PSA) has been investigated as an alternative method for supplying oxygen for onsite ozone production. During the investigation period of 1040 h, the oxygen purity from the PSA process fluctuated within a range of 90.5–93 O₂% (v/v). Using the working ratio of 2.8 mol of O₂ to 1 m³ of raw water, the PSA process in series with a corona discharge ozone generator yielded an oxidation–reduction potential of ca. 200 mV and a concentration of 22.8 mg/L dissolved oxygen. The average efficiency of the raw water treatment was as follows: 47% chemical oxygen demand removal, 78% biological oxygen demand removal, 36% sulphide removal and 34% colour removal. The operating cost of the PSA O₂ generation was reduced 3 times compared with the cost of high‐pressure oxygen cylinders.
