Application of Hydrodynamic Cavitation in Environmental Engineering (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780415616263)

Janusz Ozonek, a graduate of Silesian Technical University in Gliwice was specializing in the scope of chemical engineering in the fields close to the problems of environmental protection. After the studies he worked in the following research institutes: Inorganic Chemistry Research Institute in Gliwice and Organic Industry Institute in Warsaw. For the next 8 years he worked in the industry in the Company of Chemical Reagents in Lublin.
He has been connected with Lublin University of Technology since 1980. In this University he started an intensive research on the ozone synthesis process and improvement of the phenomenological description for this process in the plasma-chemical reactor. The research constituted the basis for the doctoral dissertation, defended at the Chemical Department of the Silesian Technical University in Gliwice. The development of the model of temperature distribution in the ozonizer depending on the hydrodynamic parameters and power supply was also an important achievement resulting from the conducted research.
Most of the works of Janusz Ozonek are interdisciplinary. The chemical ozone synthesis process itself, along with running the processes in the environment of low-temperature plasma require an approach from the side of physical elementary processes and is purposeful for the environmental engineering.
Janusz Ozonek is an author or co-author of 5 books, over 40 papers published in technical magazines and over 80 papers presented on the scientific and technical symposiums and conferences both national and international. The subject of the papers is focusing on environmental protection and is mainly connected with the issue of reducing the energy consumption in the process of ozone synthesis and its usage in eco-technologies.
He is a member of the International Ozone Association, a member of the Committee of Low-Temperature Plasma Chemistry of the Lublin department of the Polish Academy of Sciences, a member-correspondent of Lublin Science Society and a member of Polish Chemical Society.
