State-run oil companies to set up 100 oxygen plants at hospitals

By TIOL News Service  

NEW DELHI, MAY 07, 2021: PUBLIC sector oil and gas companies are setting up 100 Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) medical oxygen generation plants at State-run health facilities across the country with the surge in demand for the life-saving gas during the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hospitals in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Goa, Kerala, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Delhi will be covered under the initiative and the expenses will be borne by the companies.

The PSA oxygen generation plants employ technology provided by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), absorbing nitrogen from ambient air to concentrate oxygen.

The generated oxygen will be supplied directly to the patient. It will cater to hospitals with 200 to 500 beds.

Orders have been placed with Indian vendors for these plants, and they will start becoming operational from May while all plants will be set up by July.
