It is crucial for sustaining life, as it is used during respiration. However, high concentrations of oxygen create an enriched environment that can accelerate combustion. Materials that may not burn in normal air may burn vigorously in an oxygen-rich environment, with a simple spark being enough to potentially cause fires.
In molti processi industriali, i livelli di ossigeno possono essere sostituiti da altri gas, quindi è importante monitorare i livelli di ossigeno ed evacuare se i livelli di ossigeno scendono sotto il 19,5% in volume.
