ElI5: What is an ozone sprayer? It sounds like pseudoscience.

869 viewsChemistryOther

My friend has been using one and they say it’s an “ozone cleaner” and that it disinfects whatever you spray the water on?
Is this bullshit?
Here is the explanation from the website: Ozone spray is the amazing, easy-to-use cleaner, sanitizer and disinfectant made from just tap water. This patented ozone spray machine takes ordinary water then electrifies it, creating aqueous ozone, an earth-friendly, totally safe and chemical free spray to clean and sanitize countertops, floors, windows, door handles and any hard surfaces in your home or business. The EnozoPRO (Hygeia) aqueous ozone sprayer is battery operated and kills 99.9% of bacteria and common viruses in only 30 seconds

It is very bad to generate ozone indoors.  It is a serious pollutant, hazardous to all life.  Even if it works (dubious), it shouldn’t be used in an area where people are actively living.

For example, you can use ozone generators to kill mold.  However, people have to leave to house for the entire day.
