Solid State USP-Grade Oxygen Generators
AFFILIATION:
American Oxygen, West Valley City, Utah, United States
TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY
Area:
Technologies for improved delivery of supplemental oxygen
Tech Brief: Deploy small, personal-use M-COG (Medical-Ceramic Oxygen Generation) devices for home oxygen therapy. M-COG systems are the most preferred oxygen generation systems for 24/365 operation, and offer the ability to compress oxygen for ambulatory oxygen supply without the need for continual delivery of oxygen cylinders.

Value Proposition: Unlike traditional Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) or Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) systems, America Oxygen's M-COG device is able to produce United States Pharmacopeia (USP) grade oxygen on-site from any standard wall outlet. Currently, the only way to get USP oxygen to a patient is by delivery of pressurized cylinders which is costly and inefficient. M-COG can deliver a constant stream of USP oxygen and pressurize a reserve tank up to 150 psi without the need of an oxygen compressor. Because M-COG is solid-state, it is expected to operate for 10+ years without any maintenance making it a long-term, reliable solution compared to PSA/VSA systems.
