Army Develops System To Convert Liquid Oxygen Into Low Pressure Oxygen Gas

The army engineers have developed a mobile low-pressure oxygen system which converts liquid oxygen to oxygen gas.

The Indian Army said today it has found a solution for efficient conversion of liquid oxygen to low pressure oxygen gas that can be given to COVID-19 patients at their hospital beds. #IndiaFightsCOVID19As part of the continued fight against COVID -19, #IndianArmy#CorpsofEngineers has developed a Mobile Low-Pressure Oxygen System. The system converts Liquid Oxygen to Oxygen Gas & ensures its availability to the patients.

"Since oxygen was transported in liquid form in cryogenic tanks, quick conversion of liquid oxygen to oxygen gas and ensuring availability at the patients' bed was a critical challenge faced by all hospitals managing COVID patients," the statement said.
