Oxygen Generators
The electrochemical oxygen pumps, for medical applications, use a small applied voltage to drive oxygen from ambient air across the pump’s nano-membrane layered structure to obtain high purity (near 100%) oxygen on the permeate side.
Oxygen generator unit
Commercial bedside oxygen generator
Military bedside oxygen generator
From 1 to 5 generator units at a hospital, each delivering up to 150 liters per minute. A backup generator replaces the liquid oxygen tank. Oxygen is generated onsite and distributed through the existing piping system.

Commercial bedside oxygen generator
Military bedside oxygen generator
An on-demand oxygen generator located at the bedside in a field hospital and other temporary sites, which generates 0-15 liters of oxygen per minute by purifying ambient air.
Commercial bedside oxygen generator
Commercial bedside oxygen generator
Commercial bedside oxygen generator
A compact oxygen pump located at the patient's bedside in a commercial hospital, which generates 0-10 liters of oxygen per minute from ambient air.
Portable Fuel Cells
The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with nano-membrane technology is lighter weight, a fraction of the cost of current SOFCs, much less fuel sensitive, and does not require a complex water management. The low cost per kilowatt is possible because it has a low operating temperature (less than 600°C) and its thinner nano-membrane.

Air Force applications at different SOFC power levels:
- Expeditionary power in extreme environments (e.g., arctic conditions)
- Space power for entry vehicles and satellites
- Power for special forces
- Power for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) propulsion
- Auxiliary power for large UAVs

Water Filtration
Our energy saving, cost effective, thin supported oxidic nano-filtration membrane added to a porous ceramic support removes dissolved salts, organic ions and molecules, viruses and small organisms, and particulate material. The built-in piezo-electric layer can be used to keep the membrane surface completely clean during operation.
Fracking water
Seawater and brackish water
Seawater and brackish water
Recovery of substantial amounts of (heavily contaminated) return water from hydraulic fracturing (commonly known as “fracking”) for oil and gas extraction.

Seawater and brackish water
Seawater provides a vast source of water and could potentially supplement the water needs in coastal areas, some of which currently experience water stress.
Brackish water may result from the mixing of seawater with fresh water, as in estuaries, or it may occur in brackish fossil aquifers.
Produced water

Produced water
This includes, but is not limited to, waters produced as a byproduct during the extraction of oil and gas (produced water) and injection of carbon dioxide (extracted water).
