In order to separate oxygen from air, the effects of feed gas flow rate and rinse gas flow rate on the product purity and flow were examined using 2 bed PSA with 4 step cycle. The addition of product pressurization step increased the product purity and flow rate. The addition of pressure equalization increased the product flow rate. The test product was manufactured and the purity and flow rate of product oxygen was examined. The results were compared with the commercial medical oxygen generator of 5 ${\ell}/min$ and 90% oxygen purity.

Recently, Indoor air quality(IAQ) in workplace, residential environments and office has been concern of people, scientists and related the public. The oxygen in air was very important and essential element in every aspect of life. This study was performed on a questionnaire survey of 400 people about their awareness of indoor air quality, oxygen generators and measured of oxygen concentration in indoor environment. The results obtained were as follows; As respondents are having their 90% of daytime indoors a day, and 80% of them can feel indoor air pollutions degrees directly by particle matters. The control of most important problems of IAQ was the poor ventilation. We know that 22% of the respondents was recognized the oxgen generator. And for the installation of indoor pollution control equipment, 20% of all respondents installed oxygen generators because almost respondents was not satified the trust of ability purified indoor air pollutants. In the experimental results, it was found that the oxygen concentration of sampling sites were in the range of 20~23.5%. Therefore, it was recommended that the government related IAQ was suggested the guideline and control of oxygen generators. Finally, it appeared that the oxygen generators using indoor environment can be applied to new technology for cleaning of indoor air.
