The current scuba dive oxygen tanks are heavy and difficult to use. They only provide limited supply of oxygen and they are not suitable for longer diving periods. The scientists are developing an easier and more convenient technology that is using oxygen absorbing materials. The oxygen absorbing material is created by introducing cobalt molecule into organic crystalline structure. This material can absorb oxygen from the environment and slowly release it during time. This technology will also be beneficial for lung patients that must carry oxygen tanks with them. Only a small quantity of crystalline material can quickly absorb oxygen and slowly release it during time. Although there are no practical implementation of this technology until now, but the scientists are developing new methods that will make this technology available for practical usage.
