A purification device utilizing ozone, this device comprising a body member having an internal passage through which propellant gas is constrained to flow under pressure, with the internal passage forming an outlet at a downstream location in the body member. Liquid is supplied in limited quantities to the propellant gas in the internal passage, with the introduction of the liquid into the propellant gas causing thin ribbons and threads of liquid to flow into and with the gas flowing out of the outlet and to break into fine particles. An ozone supplying conduit is disposed in a central location in the outlet, with the conduit arranged to emit ozone into the propellant gas at a location near the outlet and to create a turbulent propellant gas region downstream of the ozone conduit. The propellant gas flows around the ozone conduit at a substantial velocity and thus serves to induce the flow of ozone from the conduit. The position of the outlet of the ozone conduit with respect to the thin ribbons and threads of liquid being such that the thin ribbons and threads of liquid enter the turbulent propellant gas region as the ribbons and threads are being shredded into fine particles. The ozone in the turbulent propellant gas comes into intimate contact with the fine particles as they are created and are collapsing into spherical droplets, thus promoting the absorption of the ozone into the fine particles.
