Abstract :
Hackensack university medical center requires a mobile oxygen generation system for their emergency response vehicle. 100% pure oxygen is desirable and obtained with a system that uses electrolysis. At peak performance, the system produced 92.4 liters of oxygen per minute. The system is compact, self-sustaining and easily manageable.
