Abstract

The process of ozone formation in an oxygen-containing gas atmosphere by the action of ionizing radiation was studied. A kinetic model of the process was constructed for the O2–N2 system. The effects of the main parameters of radiolysis on the O3 formation rate were analyzed. The atmospheric emission of ozone from industrial-scale power units that employ electron-beam flue gas cleaning of harmful impurities was evaluated from the standpoint of its conceivable favorable effect on the Earth ozone layer.
