PSA Oxygen Generation System – Complete Guide for Industrial Oxygen Production
Nov 25 , 2025
PSA Oxygen Generation System is one of the most efficient and cost-effective ways to produce oxygen on-site in a continuous mode. With an increasing trend of switching to on-site systems from cylinder supply, PSA oxygen generators have become the need of hospitals, mining, aquaculture, ozone generators, metal processing, and other industrial uses.
Nanjing Bangwin Gas is the supplier of high-quality PSA oxygen generators equipped with long-life components, stable performance, and optimized gas purity control.
A PSA Oxygen Generation System is the equipment that uses Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology to produce high-purity oxygen from ambient air. The oxygen is separated from nitrogen by the adsorbent zeolite molecular sieve.
This technique allows to generate oxygen continuously without using high-pressure cylinders or deliveries of liquid oxygen.
Pressure Swing Adsorption Explanation – ScienceDirect
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/engineering/pressure-swing-adsorption
The process works in a continuous cyclic pressure swing system, as follows:
l Adsorption Cycle
l Air Compression: Atmospheric air is filtered, compressed and delivered to the adsorber.
l Adsorption: Molecular sieve (Zeolite) adsorbs nitrogen molecules from air and oxygen passes through.
l Desorption (Regeneration) cycle: The adsorber tower depressurizes and nitrogen is pushed out.
l Two towers work alternately in adsorption and regeneration, so a continuous oxygen production can be achieved.
The typical purity is 93%±3 which is acceptable to most industrial and medical users.
For customers who also handle nitrogen, see our PSA Nitrogen Generator Systems.
Typically, a PSA oxygen system comprises the following components:
l Air compressor
l Refrigerated / adsorption air dryer
l Precision air filters
l Air buffer tank
l Pair of adsorption towers
l Oxygen buffer tank
l Flow/pressure/purity control system
l PLC smart control panel
Nanjing Bangwin Gas provides modular PSA systems for easy operation and low maintenance.

Q1: How high can PSA oxygen purity be?
Normally 90–95% can be achieved, depending on the system.
Q2: Can the oxygen produced be used as medical oxygen?
The system can be upgraded with further purification modules to the required medical standard.
Q3: Can the produced oxygen be bottled into cylinders?
Yes, by connecting a booster compressor and a filling manifold.
Q4: How long does the installation take?
For most compact systems, installation can be completed within 1–3 days.
Q5: How long does the molecular sieve last?
Normally, the life span is 8–10 years, depending on the quality of the air and the maintenance.
