reoxygenating
Adding air again
Reoxygenating is restoring oxygen to something that has been depleted of it.
Blood reoxygenates as it passes through the lungs.
A lake reoxygenates when aeration equipment churns its stagnant water.
The word appears in medical, environmental, and industrial contexts where oxygen levels matter: The device reoxygenates blood during bypass surgery.
