For further treatment of primary and intermediate materials, large amounts of oxygen and nitrogen are required by many industries, e. g. chemical and petrochemical, metal, semiconductor and food industry, in machine construction and many others. Oxygen and nitrogen are, together with Argon, the main constituents of ambient air. They are obtained from there by means of the air separation technol...

Oxygen is one of the most important products in chemical industries. This chemical element is used in various processes such as: refinery industries, manufacturing metal and other industrial operations. For instance, oxygen with high purity is utilized in different chemical processes like: steel construction, paper industries, wastewater treatment and glass production. In 1907, oxygen was produ...

Splanchnic ischaemia can ultimately lead to cellular hypoxia and necrosis, and may well contribute to the development of multiple organ failures and increased mortality. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to monitor abdominal organ blood oxygen saturation (SpO2). Pulse oximetry has been widely accepted as a reliable method for monitoring oxygen saturation of arterial blood. Animal studies ha...

Water enriched with its natural isotopes plays an important role in research and technology. Heavy water (HDO, D2O) is used in nuclear technology and research and the increasing market demand is expected in future if nuclear fusion will be used for energy production. Water enriched in O is used in research and medicine in trace experiments, as is water enriched in O. Recently there appears to b...

the origin of the proterozoic choghart iron oxide deposit in the bafq mining district of central iran has been the subject of a long-standing dispute. some authors believe that it was formed from magma, while others suggest metasomatic replacement of preexisting rocks. the present study on the basis of new oxygen isotope, ree and geochemical data concludes that neither of these two hypotheses c...
