0

One thing that all warzones have in common is the necessity for a continuous supply of resources, in this case mobile oxygen. New mobile oxygen technology was unveiled at an annual assembly held in the US, according to the US Army website.

A summit known as the Oxygen Standardisation Coordinating Group discussed several elements surrounding the need for oxygen on the battlefield, specifically the design and manufacturing of oxygen solutions for soldiers.

Attended by military forces and industrial leaders from around the world, new technology in the field of mobile oxygen production was revealed at the summit, including electrochemical oxygen systems.

With current pressure swing/vacuum swing adsorption (PSA/VSA) systems having to use compressed air and a molecular sieve to extract oxygen from air, the new electrochemical system makes use of an electrical charge that transmits across a thin inorganic membrane.
