    Jacques Étienne Bérard, a professor at the School of Pharmacy in Montpellier, France, reported delayed ripening of fruit and increased shelf life in low-oxygen storage conditions. [4] Controlled atmosphere storage (CAS) was used from the 1930s when ships transporting fresh apples and pears had high levels of CO 2 in their holding rooms in ...

  3. Hypoxia (environmental) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxia_(environmental)

    An aquatic system lacking dissolved oxygen (0% saturation) is termed anaerobic, reducing, or anoxic. In water, oxygen levels are approximately 7 ppm or 0.0007% in good quality water, but fluctuate. [5] Many organisms require hypoxic conditions. Oxygen is poisonous to anaerobic bacteria for example. [3]

    Sensors continuously measure the levels of oxygen. These sensors provide real-time data to the control system, ensuring that the oxygen level is reduced to a safe level for fire prevention without compromising human safety. Distribution Network: This network delivers nitrogen-enriched air into the protected environment(s).

  5. Water aeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_aeration

    Decreased levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) is a major contributor to poor water quality. Not only do fish and most other aquatic animals need oxygen, aerobic bacteria help decompose organic matter. When oxygen concentrations become low, anoxic conditions may develop which can decrease the ability of the water body to support life.

  6. Oxygen storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_storage

    Most humans can function at rest with an oxygen level of 15% at one atmosphere pressure; [1] a fuel such as methane is combustable down to 12% oxygen in nitrogen. A small room of 10 meter 3 has 2.08 meter 3 (2080 liters) or 2.99 kg of oxygen which would occupy 2.62 liters if it was liquid. [2]

  7. Hypoxemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxemia

    Key to understanding whether the lung is involved in a particular case of hypoxemia is the difference between the alveolar and the arterial oxygen levels; this A-a difference is often called the A-a gradient and is normally small. The arterial oxygen partial pressure is obtained directly from an arterial blood gas determination. The oxygen ...
