Of all the above, ozone is by far the most expensive and least effective.Nonetheless, chlorine is the only effective solution to water born bacteria. The other popular sanitizer is Control III which is diluted benzyl ammonium chloride. With good cleaning practices, disinfection shouldn't be necessary, but when I feel it is, I use a food-grade phosphoric acid disinfectant called Star-San, which is odorless and tasteless. I'm not a big fan of chlorine or sodium hypochlorite disinfection either. Ozone would not last long enough at the earth's surface to make it to the ozone layer anyway. The environmental problem with the ozone layer is that it is diminishing not that it is growing.

The concentrations in SoClean are so low, they must be recirculated to accumulate in a closed loop to a high enough concentration to achieve disinfection.
Ozone from electrical arc in oxygen is a fairly common disinfectant used in water and wastewater, and a small-scale version of that is the SoClean. More precisely, hydrocarbons and NOx in the presence of sunlight, form ozone O3, and that is your smog. Oxygen in all it forms stimulates the growth of algae, bacteria & fungi to name a few, Chlorine is most effective steriliser in these instances. Yes, true, but Ozone combines with hydrocarbon emissions, nitrous oxides (Nox) & others to form the air pollution that hangs over major cities.
