Frank Hursey

Francis X. Hursey, President and Founder of On Site Gas Systems Inc. is a pioneer of PSA Oxygen technology. His vision was a company whose focus would be perfecting the PSA process through research and development, while providing cost-saving, reliable nitrogen and oxygen generation systems for numerous applications. He was on the breathing air team of the Apollo Program, and helped develop one of the first oxygen concentrators for home use. 

As Founder and Vice Chairman of Z-Medica Corp, Frank invented and brought to market a zeolite granular (Quik Clot) as a rapid haemostat that could control severe to traumatic bleeding. Two product generations later, Z-Medica Corp serves the military, law enforcement, hospitals, emergency response markets, as well as providing health care products to the former.

 Frank has been awarded multiple patents in Noncryogenic gas technology, Medical Products and Nitrogen applications. He was recognized as a top scientist in 2003 by Scientific American.
