Ozone has a short "half life", depending on where it is found, and the temperature where it is found. Liquid ozone has a half life of about a week. Ozone dissolved in water has a half life between seconds and hours (depending on water purity also). Ozone in air is also sensitive to contaminants in the air, such as water vapor... which help it to decay.

Industrial activities, aerosol sprays, and old refrigeration systems are some sources of ODS.
