Using ozone for killing the smell. A difficult question

I have a question about an idea that I have. Ill have grow tent with size like 10' by 10' and I want to create separate hermetic cube box with sides 2' x 2' x 2'. I will drive air with the extractor to this box. This box will have inside generator of ozone and will create high concentration inside. After this box air will go thru the carbon filter out of the house.

Ozon in huge concentration in limited space will kill any smell even very intensive

How do you think will it work well ?
 
Thy make these:


Thats the model I have on an unused exhaust line I ran before I put in AC and CO2. It was pulling on air cooled lights and had plenty of duct for the ozone to mix with the odor and kill it. Always use galvanized duct and duct mastic on ALL seams and joints. You want all that going outside. Just a few small leaks and you start smelling that sickly sweet ozone in your rooms and thats not good for your lungs or your plants.
 
They make other sizes, I prefer the corona discharge models because I don't want a UV bulb going out and suddenly I am venting stench...
 
Grab a bucket of duct mastic, it will be your friend. I just slathered it on by hand wearing latex gloves. On snap seam galvanized you want to seal the long seam as well as all joints and on adjustable 90's you should slather the whole thing (all it's seams).

Do NOT use cheapo plastic accordion duct, the ozone will make it brittle and it will crack, probably within 90 days.

If I place one carbon filter at the end of the duct will it completely eliminate smell of ozone? If yes, for how long?


Corona discharge creating such huge concentrations of ozone. What about the smell outside?
