Before we could instal it we had to work on infrastructure like a concrete plate and then we took our material, which came delivered by German Air Force. We started to build last Saturday and two days later we started with first test run for oxygen production," he said."This system is able to produce 4,00,000 litres, which is a lot of amount of oxygen and this can be produced every day seven days a week with no problem. We fill it in cylinders and send cylinders to patients," said Colonel Thym on the oxygen plant facility.He also added that they are privileged and honoured to be able to support India since it has supported other countries a lot at the beginning of the pandemic.The team of 12 German paramedics from the German Armed Forces Sanitary Command had set up the machine.
