Oxygen plays a vital role in aquaculture, as it is required to sustain the life of fish and other aquatic organisms. The use of onsite oxygen generation through pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology has become a popular method in the aquaculture industry, as it offers numerous advantages over traditional oxygen delivery methods.
PSA technology works by separating oxygen from the air using a molecular sieve and then storing the separated oxygen in a tank. This allows for a constant supply of pure oxygen to be delivered to the fish tanks, which can improve the growth rate and overall health of the fish. Onsite oxygen generation also eliminates the need for regular deliveries of oxygen cylinders, which can be costly and time-consuming.


Additionally, the use of onsite oxygen generation can help to reduce the risk of oxygen depletion in the fish tanks, which can be dangerous for the fish and can lead to costly losses for the aquaculture farmer. Overall, the use of onsite oxygen generation through PSA technology has become an essential tool for improving the efficiency and sustainability of the aquaculture industry. O2Africa’s PSA generators can be designed to produce the volumes and purities of Oxygen required at these sites.
