An alternative approach requires an ozone generator to add the chemical oxidant, ozone, in a process termed ozofractionation29, 30. Major drawbacks arise with this approach as a result of using ozone, which is a chemical oxidant. So, using ozone will create additional PFAS that are not amenable to removal by fractionation.
