What do you mean the ceramic disc is not working so well anymore? They do occasionally require cleaning, I usually just put them into (straight) bleach for 15 minutes, then rinse off in water with 2x the recommended amount of dechlorinator (until there is no more bleach smell).
This should work to restore your diffuser.
Alternatively, you could look into an inline reactor. Atomic diffusers also seem popular.
