How is PSA Oxygen used in Medical Field?


PSA or the Pressure Wing Adsorption process mainly uses zeolites Molecular that sieves produce the oxygen from the atmosphere. The “Oxygen 93%” contains not less than 90% Oxygen & not more than 96%, the  remainder consisting mostly of Argon and Nitrogen and thousands of such installations that have proven these are safe for medical use.  The Oxygen for Hospital is curated in the same way.
A medical oxygen generator is mainly manufactured in accordance with ASME Code & it meets the Indian, European as well as United States Pharmacopeia Oxygen’s  93% monograph. It is Oxygen from Air by Molecular Sieve process. The PSA unit used is very much very reliable and fully automatic.
The pressure of such kept in the Buffer tank is continuously monitored by a pressure transmitter. Whenever Oxygen Buffer vessel pressure falls below 3.5 Bar, an alarm starts buzzing. There is also another pressure transmitter which is provided in the pipeline to indicate when the reserve supply system is to be actuated.
These kind of O2 produced with the PSA technology is supplied through Oxygen Generators  and not cylinders because with the use of generators have the following advantages:
·         Safe delivery of gas.
·         No handling of Oxygen cylinders.
·         Economy & decrease in Oxygen cost.
·         Oxygen available round the clock in-house.
·         Easy to use.
·         Low maintenance.
·         Eliminate the expense of purchasing, receiving and monitoring oxygen supply for hospitals.
·         Economical

Nitrogen Application in Cryotherapy

Image
Introduction Cryotherapy is a dermatological treatment used by dermatologists and skin care experts to treat surface skin lesions by freezing them with liquid nitrogen. Although other cryogens like carbon dioxide snow, Dimethyl ether and propane or DMEP were also used earlier, their use has now grown obsolete and liquid nitrogen is most commonly used. What Type Of Skin Lesions Are Treated With Cryotherapy? Lesions that are usually treated by cryotherapy include actinic keratosis, viral warts and sebborhoeic keratosis or senile warts. Specialist dermatologists sometimes also freeze small skin cancers such as superficial basal cell and in situ squamous cell carcinomas (intraepidermal carcinoma, Bowen disease), but this treatment is not always successful, so careful follow-up care is necessary.Freezing is one of the most suitable way of getting rid of many different kinds of surface skin lesions, asit is relatively inexpensive, safe, and reliable. However, it is also...

Applications of Nitrogen Generators

Nitrogen is a quite sought after gas as it has a wide variety of industrial uses. Most of these industries, need either nitrogen or liquid nitrogen generators on-site. Nitrogen generators these days are fitted with nitrogen separation membrane technology, which is economical, simpler and more dependable than the units without it. These are industries which need nitrogen, and thus nitrogen generators. 1.       The Food and Beverage Industry: Food and beverages begin to age and perish as soon as they are produced. This is due the activity of bacteria and similar micro-organisms or oxidation. A nitrogen flooded atmosphere solves both problems by stopping these organisms from growing and preventing oxidation. 2.       The Tyre Industry: Aircraft tyres are filled with nitrogen instead of air as it is drier than air. Most premier automobile companies fill the tyres of their cars and bikes with nitrogen, as it remains at a stable pr...

Technical facts about color masterbatches

Since their introduction in the 1960s the color masterbatches has steadily penetrated the traditional colored compound market. It is a solid concentrate of color and/or performance enhancing additives such as anti-static, UV stabiliser, metal deactivator, etc., that is added to a base polymer to impart these attributes. It is usually supplied in granular form, either as pellets similar in size to most polymers or as miniature pellets, known as micro granules. Alternatively, they can be delivered in 'rough cut' form - a mixture of small shreds and chunks. Two main types are offered - polymer specific and universal. Polymer specific masterbatch is produced using the same base polymer group. Universal they employs a carrier system that is capable of carrying the high quantities of additives necessary to deliver the end use properties required as well as affording the essential compatibility required across a broad range of polymers. Universal ones are normally readily ...
