CAN GAS: Qinghai Provincial Government Launches High-Altitude Oxygen Supply System to Safeguard Employee Health
Located in western China, Qinghai Province sits at an average altitude of over 3,000 meters. With atmospheric oxygen partial pressure at only 60%–70% of that found in lowland areas, the region hovers at the threshold for altitude sickness. Prolonged exposure to this environment can cause physical discomfort—such as headaches, fatigue, and chest tightness—and, in severe cases, lead to chronic altitude sickness.
To improve the working and living conditions for employees and their families, the Qinghai Provincial Government—
after multiple rounds of evaluation—partnered with CAN GAS to plan and construct a high-altitude diffuse oxygen enrichment system.
Preliminary Planning: Precision Customization to Meet High-Altitude Oxygen Needs
To ensure the project proceeded smoothly without compromising quality—while maintaining normal daily office and living routines—the CAN GAS technical team demonstrated a high level of professionalism. During the preparation phase, they conducted over two months of site surveys and scientific analysis, ultimately delivering a practical and efficient diffuse oxygen enrichment solution to the client.
The system’s core oxygen generation unit utilizes a containerized design. This choice offers two key advantages: it enables rapid deployment, saving time on infrastructure and assembly; and it bypasses the complex construction processes and tedious approval procedures associated with traditional equipment rooms, thereby resolving challenges related to site constraints and regulatory compliance.
Construction and Implementation: Strict Quality Control for Reliable Delivery
The plan involved the installation of three advanced PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) oxygen generation units, designed to fully meet the oxygen requirements of all office and residential areas.
The oxygen distribution network utilizes high-quality stainless steel and copper piping, installed in strict accordance with industry standards to ensure the safety and stability of the system. Oxygen delivery terminals include both diffuse-type and nasal cannula types, totaling over 600 units.
The system features a central control system and a remote monitoring platform, offering ease of operation, convenient management, and unmanned operation. It enables precise, intelligent regulation of indoor oxygen concentrations, significantly enhancing physical comfort for employees and their families.
Commissioning and Acceptance: Professional Testing to Ensure System Compliance
Facing the multifaceted challenges of tight schedules, rigorous technical specifications, and complex construction environments, the CAN GAS team efficiently managed project planning, precisely executed construction workflows, and strictly oversaw the final acceptance process. Throughout the project, the team’s professionalism, meticulous work ethic, refined process control, and rapid response capabilities earned high praise from the client.
Ultimately, the high-altitude diffuse oxygen-enrichment system, which was successfully delivered and commissioned by our company, demonstrated excellence in both equipment stability and oxygen supply efficiency. Its superior quality and outstanding performance metrics garnered high acclaim from the client.
China has long prioritized addressing the adverse effects of high-altitude hypoxia on local residents, officials assigned to support Tibet, and military personnel, having successively issued various policies and standards to support oxygen supply in these regions.
The implementation of this oxygen-enrichment project—vigorously promoted by the Qinghai Provincial People's Government—will undoubtedly drive significant improvements in the quality of local office and living environments. Moving forward, CAN GAS remains committed to advancing high-altitude oxygen-enrichment technology and crafting high-quality products, dedicated to providing clients with comprehensive, scientifically sound, and cost-effective systematic solutions for high-altitude oxygen supply.
