2. Chemical oxygen generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_generator

   A chlorate candle, or an oxygen candle, is a cylindrical chemical oxygen generator that contains a mix of sodium chlorate and iron powder, which when ignited smolders at about 600 °C (1,100 °F), producing sodium chloride, iron oxide, and oxygen at a fixed rate of about 6.5 man-hours per kilogram of the mixture.

3. Oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_concentrator

   The term oxygen generator is a misnomer in that the oxygen is not generated as it is with a chemical oxygen generator, but rather it is concentrated from the air. Non-medical oxygen concentrators can be used as feed gas to a medical oxygen system, such as the oxygen system in a hospital, though governmental approval is required, such as by the ...

4. Emergency oxygen system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_oxygen_system

   Diagram of a chemical oxygen generator system. There are currently three systems that are typically found on aircraft: A chemical oxygen generator system connected to all masks in the compartment. Pulling down on one oxygen mask removes the firing pin of the generator igniting a mixture of sodium chlorate and iron powder, opening the oxygen ...

5. Oxygen storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_storage

   Chemical oxygen generators store oxygen in their chemical composition, and can be used only one time. Oxygen Candles contain a mix of sodium chlorate and iron powder, which when ignited smolders at about 600 °C (1,112 °F) and results in sodium chloride, iron oxide, and oxygen, about 270 liters per kg of mixture.

6. Oxyhydrogen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyhydrogen

   Oxyhydrogen is a mixture of hydrogen (H 2) and oxygen (O 2) gases. This gaseous mixture is used for torches to process refractory materials and was the first [1] gaseous mixture used for welding. Theoretically, a ratio of 2:1 hydrogen:oxygen is enough to achieve maximum efficiency; in practice a ratio 4:1 or 5:1 is needed to avoid an oxidizing ...

7. Portable oxygen concentrator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_oxygen_concentrator

   Portable oxygen concentrator used with bottle humidifier. POCs operate on the same principle as a home concentrator, pressure swing adsorption. [6] The basic set up of a POC is a miniaturized air compressor, a cylinder filled containing the sieve, a pressure equalizing reservoir and valves and tubes.
