Abstract
Abstract: Oxygen generators are frequently used to provide oxygen for the patient. In the current scenario, demand of oxygen is increased at domestic level as well as at organizational level since the pandemic. Most of the researchers have done research about oxygen extraction through electrochemical process using some advance materials and designs having benefits like no circulation of water but they are very expensive. In some of the papers, experimenters used very health hazardous materials like LDPE and HDPE plastic bottles for making concentrator cheaper. But our aim was to construct the oxygen concentrator with low cost, user friendly, portable as well as tough body. Basic methodology was based on electrolysis process of water in short breakdown of water. Water consists of H2 ions and O ions, having positive and negative charge respectively. Thus, they can be separated easily using application current. We used two electrodes, filter bowls and a battery (12V, 5 Amp). Results obtained are production of oxygen in few hours. Results are acceptable according to cost and compactness of system, but comparatively low rate of production than mass producing oxygen extraction plants.
