A method of fuel tank inerting includes separating process air into nitrogen-enriched air and oxygen-enriched air with an air separation membrane. A vacuum is applied to the air separation membrane to produce a pressure differential across the air separation membrane. The vacuum is manipulated to vary the pressure differential and vary purity of the nitrogen-enriched air.

An oxygen concentration system may comprise a pressure sensor, a movement sensor, and a controller configured to use one or more pressure signals obtained from the pressure sensor and a movement signal obtained from the movement sensor to determine when to release a bolus of oxygen enriched air. In some implementations, the controller may adjust a trigger threshold based on an initial pressure signal obtained from the pressure sensor and the movement signal obtained from the movement sensor. In some implementations, the controller may adjust a pressure signal obtained from the pressure sensor based on the movement signal obtained from the movement sensor. In some implementations, the controller may detect a potential onset of inhalation from a pressure signal obtained from the pressure sensor and determine whether to verify the potential onset of inhalation based on the movement signal obtained from the movement sensor.

Systems and methods for managing the power consumption of an oxygen concentrator are disclosed. An oxygen concentration system may comprise a compression system, a canister system, one or more processors, and at least one of a pressure sensor or a movement sensor. The one or more processors may be configured to transition the oxygen concentration system to at least one of a prescribed mode of operation or a standby mode of operation. The timing of the transition may be based on at least one of a number of breaths detected from the pressure signals generated by the pressure sensor or an estimated energy content of the movement signal generated by the movement sensor. A predetermined volume or concentration of oxygen enriched air may be supplied to a user during the prescribed mode of operation. A reduced power may be provided to the compression system during the standby mode of operation.
