1. A method of generating ozone comprising the steps of:

  • applying an AC voltage between a pair of electrodes to generate an electric field of the same frequency as the applied voltage;

    providing a body of liquid with a free surface disposed opposite one of said electrodes;

    spacing said one electrode from said free surface so that the electric field forms a multitude of Taylor cones at the free surface; and

    passing of gaseous stream containing oxygen between said one electrode and said free surface to oxidise said oxygen upon corona discharge from said cones.
