I always wondered this myself. My Tunze 9410 has an inlet for ozone but there's no way to filter the air leaving the skimmer. @Paul B says he runs ozone 24/7 at full whack with no carbon at all. I have some old Sander skimmers that even say "Ozon Reaktor" on them and there's no way to filter them with carbon. Are the small amounts of ozone we use really that dangerous?
