How can one effectively remove oxygen from the air?

One effective way to remove oxygen from the air is through a process called nitrogen displacement. This involves introducing a gas, such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide, into the air to displace the oxygen molecules. This can be done using specialized equipment like nitrogen generators or by creating a controlled environment where oxygen is gradually replaced with the desired gas.


Is air and oxygen are the same gas?
