A system for generating ozone by corona discharge comprises a corona discharge ozone generating cell. A downstream pressure regulator is disposed downstream and coupled to the corona discharge ozone generating cell for setting and automatically maintaining a desired cell pressure for the ozone generating cell so that effects of variances caused by processing of the ozone-containing gas downstream of the ozone generating cell on ozone production by the ozone generating cell are eliminated or at least minimized. A flow control orifice is provided upstream of the ozone generating cell for controlling the flow of incoming gas to the ozone generating cell for producing the ozone-containing gas. An upstream pressure regulator is provided upstream of the ozone generating cell for maintaining an inlet pressure of the incoming gas entering the ozone generating cell. After setting the desired cell pressure in the downstream pressure regulator, the desired flow control through the flow control orifice, and a voltage level for operating the ozone generating cell, the upstream pressure regulator can be adjusted to the optimum level to maximize ozone production.
