Many regular divers do this. Just take breaks after a long amount of time to ensure no toxicity develops.

Benefits Of The In-Home Oxygen Concentrator?
Many people require the use of an oxygen concentrator to help ease breathing problems associated with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other problems associated with difficulty breathing. Prior to the advent of the oxygen concentrator, patients had to use cumbersome cylinders or tanks to supply vital oxygen needed to breath. In addition, concentrators do not house oxygen in liquid or gas form, but take it out of the atmospheric air. One of the greatest benefits of oxygen concentrators is that the patient does not have to worry that they will run out of oxygen, as the concentrator does the unit does not store oxygen.In contrast to cylinders or tanks, the oxygen concentrator does not have to be refilled. Prior to using a concentrator, patients had to send the tanks back to the company to get a refill, however, now, this is a thing of the past. Since the oxygen concentrator is available in a variety of different models and sizes, patients have a better choice of which one will work best for their needs. Many patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are frail and weak, and therefore are unable to carry around a heavy unit. Because many of these units weight less and are smaller than the older tanks and cylinders, patients are better able to comply with their oxygen treatment plan.Of course, perhaps the greatest benefit of the oxygen concentrator is the peace of mind to the user. When a patient fears that they will run out of oxygen, they become anxious, further disrupting their already precarious breathing pattern. By knowing that their unit will never run out of oxygen, they can literally breathe better knowing their health will never be compromised as a result of a shortage of oxygen. In addition, a concentrator does not pose the risk that oxygen will escape the unit, potentially posing a fire hazard. Oxygen can leak out of cylinders and tanks possibly causing a fire. Patients also enjoy the longer lasting rechargeable batteries that most oxygen concentrators come equipped with. In addition, travel by airplane and train might be easier since the advent of concentrators, since they can now be easily taken aboard planes and trains.
