A new Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) oxygen plant with capacity to produce 135 oxygen cylinders per day has opened in Bauchi State, north-east Nigeria.

Funded by Canada and IHS, the facility can deliver up to 720,000 litres of medical oxygen daily, supporting up to 100 children with severe pneumonia or 50-60 patients requiring round-the-clock therapy.

Equipped with cylinders, related accessories, and a backup manifold system, it will not only serve the General Hospital but also other healthcare facilities across the state. A Level 2 Newborn Unit was also commissioned.
