Medical Oxygen
The use of oxygen in remote hospitals can be challenging, as access to a reliable supply of medical-grade oxygen can be limited. Onsite oxygen generation through pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology has become an increasingly popular method in remote hospitals, as it offers a reliable and cost-effective solution to oxygen supply challenges.


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 medical-grade oxygen to be delivered to the hospital, which can be used to support the treatment of patients with respiratory conditions or those undergoing surgery. Onsite oxygen generation also eliminates the need for regular deliveries of oxygen cylinders, which can be challenging in remote areas.
This can help to reduce the cost of oxygen supply, as well as the environmental impact of transporting oxygen cylinders over long distances. Overall, the use of onsite oxygen generation through PSA technology has become an essential tool for improving access to medical-grade oxygen in remote hospitals, and has the potential to improve the quality of healthcare in underserved areas. O2Africa’s PSA units can be used in remote sites to produce oxygen for medical use across Africa. This enables continuous production of Oxygen onsite at these facilities which can either be bottled or connected directly into their Oxygen systems.

SAHPRA stands for the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority. It is a regulatory body responsible for overseeing the registration, licensing, and regulation of all health products, including medicines, medical devices, and complementary medicines, in South Africa. SAHPRA ensures that health products are safe, effective, and of high quality before they can be marketed and used within the country. The authority also monitors the safety of health products through post-marketing surveillance and regulates clinical trials conducted in South Africa.
