What are the functions of molecular sieves in oxygen generators?

Medical molecular sieve oxygen generators are devices that can extract oxygen from the air and remove other components (such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc.) to provide pure and high-concentration oxygen for medical and other applications. The core of this oxygen production equipment is the molecular sieve, which is a material with high selectivity and is capable of separating oxygen molecules from the air and eliminating other molecules. In oxygen generators, the molecular sieve is usually an aluminum silicate crystal with very tiny pores, which can only accommodate gas molecules smaller than its pore size.


So what are the main functions of molecular sieves in oxygen generators?


Oxygen purification: Molecular sieves adsorb nitrogen, carbon dioxide, moisture, and various hydrocarbons in the air, extracting high-purity oxygen from it.


Removing impurities: Molecular sieves can remove various impurities from oxygen, including water molecules and hydrocarbons such as methane and benzene, to reduce harmful substances in the oxygen. In addition, molecular sieves can remove carbon dioxide, improving the purity and quality of the oxygen.


The concentration of oxygen-producing molecular sieves used by CHEMXIN can reach purity 96%, and their lifespan is 30,000 hours. We can provide the appropriate molecular sieves based on the customer's equipment model and assist the customer in conducting tests and verification.
