An apparatus and a method for decolorizing a denim fabric with an oxidizing gas is disclosed. The process is initiated by producing compressed air which is processed to generate dry air. The air pressure of dry air is reduced to maintain at 10 psig and thereby generates ozone gas. A negative pressure is maintained to ensure no ozone leak out to ambient from a washer. The denim fabric may be exposed to a controlled amount of ozone gas for a predetermined time such as a process time. Whenever the process time expires, the amount of ozone gas is converted back to oxygen by running a variable speed motor at high speed to create a negative pressure within the processing unit and released to atmosphere. The method also incorporates a means for monitoring the level of ozone concentration in ambient for the safety of operators.
