The present invention provides apparatus and methods for sterilization. The device includes: a gas supply device for supplying air; a water container for storing water; a negative oxygen ion generating device, which is in fluid connection with the gas supply device and the water supply device, respectively, and includes at least one negative ion generator, which is in operation to the receiving device. The air releases electrons, so that the air is mixed with negative oxygen ions and free electrons, and transported to the water container; at least one ozone generator, in fluid connection with the water supply device and the gas supply device, receives the air and causes ozone to enter the air, and Injected into a water container; wherein, in use, air mixed with negative oxygen ions and free electrons and air containing ozone are delivered to the water in the water container to sterilize the water and contents. The device and method can sterilize water and degrade organic matter in water, and can also generate substances with strong oxidizing power in water for sterilizing objects in water. |
