Title: Is it possible to filter out ozone without filtering out hydrogen peroxide?
Post by: nickmiller1888 on January 04, 2021, 04:23:57 PM

I am an electrical engineer, suffice to say chemistry is not my strong suit (not even sure if I'm posting this in the right spot).  I'm trying to find a way to maximize the hydroperoxide in the air while minimizing ozone, any ideas?

I think carbon reacts with ozone forming carbon dioxide, hydrogen peroxide does not react so a carbon-filter could work.

Over thinking this? How do the boiling points compare (not sure of solubility of ozone in hydrogen peroxide; but would not recommend further heating)?

I thought it was vapor of hydrogen peroxide? Otherwise the solution is very easy offcourse.
