Principle 38. Strong oxidants

  1. Replace common air with oxygen-enriched air.
    Scuba diving with Nitrox or other non-air mixtures for extended endurance
  2. Replace enriched air with pure oxygen.
    Cut at a higher temperature using an oxy-acetylene torch.
    Treat wounds in a high pressure oxygen environment to kill anaerobic bacteria and aid healing.
  3. Expose air or oxygen to ionizing radiation.
  4. Use ionized oxygen.
    Ionize air to trap pollutants in an air cleaner.
  5. Replace ozonized (or ionized) oxygen with ozone.
    Speed up chemical reactions by ionizing the gas before use.
