Abstract |
|
Reduction of the absorber size of a medical oxygen concentrator (MOC) employing a generic pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology is an ongoing research and development activity. The MOC typically produces a 90_93% O2-enriched product gas from ambient air at a rate of e10 L/minute (LPM) for individual use. Adsorbent columns packed with very small adsorbent particles are used to enhance the adsorption kinetics for rapid PSA cycle operation. An experimental mini-PSA set up was used to measure the performance of a simulated Skarstrom-like PSA cycle using a commercial sample of LiX Zeolite as the air separation sorbent |
