SDMC installs oxygen plant at Nehru Nagar hospital anticipating Covid-19 third wave

The South Delhi Municipal Corporation has constructed a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) oxygen facility at the Chest Clinic and TB hospital in Nehru Nagar, South Delhi, in anticipation for a probable third Covid-19 wave.

This is the local body’s third PSA oxygen plant this month, following the ones that were launched last week at Tilak Nagar Colony Hospital and Poornima Sethi Multi Speciality Hospital in Kalkaji.

SDMC constructed the plant in conjunction with Rotary Club and PHD Family Welfare Foundation, according to standing committee chairperson B K Oberoi.

“This plant can generate oxygen at approx 350 litres per minute. It will provide oxygen to 40 bedded Covid wards and on normal days it will provide oxygen to tuberculosis and other lung-disease patients.”

Rajpal Singh, chairman of the central zone, stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made an effort through the PM Cares Fund to establish up PSA oxygen plants around the nation in order to avoid an oxygen shortage in the third wave of Covid-19.
