An apparatus is disclosed for generating ozone inside packaged articles 16 which comprises an electrode assembly in which coplanar electrodes 1, 2 are supported along a contact surface. The electrodes are solid state conductive electrodes. These electrodes may be interdigitated and/or arranged with uniform spacing therebetween along a portion of their length. Where the electrodes are straight they may be parallel, but other shapes can also be evenly spaced. In some examples the electrodes are partially insulated and partially exposed. In some examples the electrodes are embedded/potted in an insulator to exclude air spaces from around the electrodes. Also disclosed is a method of disinfecting a packaged article using electrodes urged onto the package, applying electric power to the electrodes of between 30 and 200 Watts so as to generate at least 2ppm ozone in the air space of the package. |
