RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Composition of the AirWe breathe earths atmosphere composed of:Nitrogen (78%)Oxygen (21%)Carbon Dioxide (0.03%)Argon and trace gases (0.93%)Neon, Xenon, Krypton and Deon
RsCr 220
How Oxygen is producedFractional DistillationPhysical SeparationNitrogen Molecular sieveSemi-Permeable membrane
RsCr 220
Fractional DistillationLarge Manufacturing Facility
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Fractional Distillation for liquid O2
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Fractional DistillationAtmospheric air is filtered of pollutants, carbon dioxide and waterAir is compressed and cooled to a liquidThen it is slowly heated and the nitrogen boils off.Liquid oxygen remains
RsCr 220
Physical SeparationMolecular SieveSemi-Permeable Plastic Membrane(in the home)
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Molecular SieveComposed of inorganic sodium aluminum silicate pelletsThese pellets absorb the nitrogen and water vapor from the airProduces up to 90% mixture
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Oxygen Concentrator
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Semipermeable MembranePulls air through membraneOxygen passes through faster than nitrogenCan produce 40% mixtureGood for long-term low flow oxygen

RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Oxygen02Molecular Weight 32Colorless, odorless, tastelessSlightly heavier than airDensity of 1.29 g/LNonflammable but supports combustion
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Compressed AirIs the same mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and argon.Is piped in to all modern hospitalsUsed to power pneumatically powered equipmentSome situations (patients are C02 retainers) when oxygen is contraindicated
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Carbon DioxideC02Colorless and OdorlessDoes not support combustionUsed in fire extinguishersMore soluble in liquids than oxygenEasier transporting in blood then oxygenUsed to treat hiccups (singulation)
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*HeliumHeOdorless, tasteless, non-flammableSecond lightest of gasesCombined with oxygen (heliox) to reduce work of breathing with swollen upper airways
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Nitrous OxideN20Nonflammable but supports combustionUsed as an anesthesia in OR (laughing gas)Always mixed with oxygen (Entonox) and other anesthesia agents
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Nitric OxideN0Is nonflammable but supports combustionUsed experimentally in low concentrations (ppm) for pulmonary vasodilationRecently has had excellent results with premature babies
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*NitrogenN2Used as lab gas (liquid) for freezing tissue
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Carbon MonoxideCOUsed in Pulmonary Function LabVery diffusible used to test how easily gas will pass through the lung membranes
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*CyclopropaneStrictly an anesthesia gas
RsCr 220
RsCr 220*Ethylene OxideUsed to gas sterilize medical equipmentUseful for equipment that cant handle high temperatures or immersion in water
