Summary

Ice formed from water in which ozone gas is dissolved is promising for the cold storage of foods because of the ozone's sterilization and deodorization capabilities. However, effective dissolution of ozone gas in water and taking ozone gas into ice are not easy. Furthermore, the decomposition rate of the ozone itself is usually very fast, regardless of its phase. Thus, to effectively take ozone gas into ice, the authors have developed ice containing ozone micro-bubbles. In this paper, ice containing ozone micro-bubbles formed by adding surfactant was kept for a desired time at a desired constant temperature without melting of the ice. The concentration of ozone micro-bubbles fixed in ice and the ozone gas concentration released from ice by melting were measured to investigate the ozone decomposition rate due to fixation in ice and the characteristics of the released concentration. Furthermore, the influences of surfactant on both concentrations were examined.
