oxygen-rich
High in O2
Oxygen-rich describes environments, substances, or mixtures containing a high concentration of oxygen.
The term appears in medical contexts oxygen-rich blood, astronomy oxygen-rich atmospheres, and chemistry oxygen-rich compounds.
The opposite is oxygen-poor or oxygen-depleted.
