Oxygen Recycling System (ORS)—By Indian Navy
  • The ORS was conceptualised and designed by the Indian Navy’s Diving School of the Southern Naval Command.
  • The Diving School of Indian Navy is expertise in this area as the same concept is used in some of the diving sets used by the school.
  • The ORS will boost the life of the existing medical oxygen cylinders by two to four times, through the fact that only a small percentage of oxygen which is inhaled by a patient is actually absorbed by the lungs, and the rest is exhaled along with carbon dioxide produced by the body.
  • The ORS can also be used to extend the life of oxygen cylinders used by mountaineers or soldiers at High Altitude, for HADR operations and onboard naval ships and submarines.
