Oxygen Gas Generator Systems
Oxygen gas generators produce medical and industrial oxygen on-site using pressure swing adsorption (PSA) or vacuum swing adsorption (VSA) technology.
Oxygen Generation Technology
Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA)
Process:
1. Compressed air enters oxygen generator
2. Air passes through zeolite molecular sieve (ZMS)
3. Nitrogen and water are adsorbed
4. Oxygen (90-95%) exits as product
5. Adsorbed gases released during regeneration
6. Dual towers provide continuous output
Medical Oxygen Applications
-
Hospital oxygen supply systems
-
Patient resuscitation
-
Respiratory therapy
-
Emergency department support
Industrial Oxygen Applications
Wastewater Treatment
Activated Sludge Process:
- Aeration tanks require continuous oxygen
- Maintains biological oxidation
- Reduces BOD and COD
- Typical: 1.5 kg O₂ per kg BOD removed
Aquaculture
-
Fish pond aeration
-
Shrimp farming
-
Shellfish cultivation
Metal Manufacturing
-
Steelmaking (basic oxygen furnace)
-
Metal cutting and welding
-
Thermal cutting (laser, plasma)
Conclusion
Oxygen gas generators provide reliable, cost-effective on-site oxygen production for medical and industrial applications.
