Oxygen (O2): The Essential Gas for Life

Pure Oxygen (O2) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that is essential for the survival of most living organisms. It plays a crucial role in respiration, the process by which cells convert nutrients into energy. This product description details the various forms and applications of oxygen.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Life-Sustaining: Oxygen is the primary component of the air we breathe and is vital for cellular respiration, enabling energy production and supporting all bodily functions.
• High Purity: Our oxygen is offered in various purities, ranging from medical-grade to industrial-grade, depending on the application. Specific purity levels are clearly labeled on each product.
• Multiple Delivery Methods: Oxygen is available in various forms including:
  • Compressed Gas Cylinders: These are the most common method for delivering oxygen, suitable for various applications ranging from medical use to industrial processes. Sizes vary to meet specific needs.
  • Liquid Oxygen (LOX): Liquid oxygen is a highly efficient way to store and transport large quantities of oxygen. It requires specialized cryogenic containers for storage and handling.
  • Oxygen Concentrators: These devices extract oxygen from ambient air, providing a continuous supply of oxygen without the need for gas cylinders. Ideal for home healthcare use.
  • Oxygen Canisters: Small, portable canisters provide oxygen in a convenient and readily available form for various applications.

Applications:

Oxygen's applications are vast and encompass diverse industries:

• Medical: Oxygen therapy is crucial for patients suffering from respiratory illnesses, providing supplemental oxygen to improve breathing and tissue oxygenation. This includes use in hospitals, clinics, and home healthcare settings.
• Industrial: Oxygen is extensively used in various industrial processes, including:
  • Welding and Cutting: Oxygen supports high-temperature combustion, enabling efficient welding and cutting of metals.
  • Chemical Processes: Oxygen is a key reactant in many chemical processes, including the production of various chemicals and materials.
  • Wastewater Treatment: Oxygen is used to enhance the biological processes that break down organic matter in wastewater treatment plants.
  • Metal Production: Oxygen is used in steelmaking and other metal refining processes.

Safety Information:

• Highly Flammable: Oxygen supports combustion and should be handled with care to prevent fire hazards. Avoid contact with flammable materials and ensure proper ventilation.
• Storage and Handling: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe storage and handling of oxygen. Appropriate safety equipment should be used when handling oxygen cylinders or other forms of oxygen.
• Medical Use: Oxygen should only be administered under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

Product Specifications:

• Purity: Varies depending on the grade and application (e.g., 99.5% for medical grade). Specific purity information is provided on individual product labels.
• Packaging: Available in various sizes and packaging options depending on the form (cylinders, liquid tanks, etc.)
