Potassium superoxide (KO2) is known as a chemical source of oxygen supply and carbon dioxide removal that can be used in air revitalization systems in enclosed military spaces. This compound is highly sensitive to moisture and releases oxygen upon contact with it, making it useful in spaces with low oxygen levels. In this study, potassium superoxide was synthesized and produced for the first-time using resistance heating method at dry and hot air flow. The results obtained from this method, including active oxygen content, energy consumption, and product yield, were compared and evaluated against the results of other synthesis and production methods for potassium superoxide, such as IR heating in vacuum, microwave heating at dry air flow, and electrohydrodynamic (EHD) method, as reported by other researchers. The results showed that the active oxygen content of the product produced by the resistance heating method at dry and hot air flow was 13%, whereas the highest value, approximately 25%, was obtained using the EHD method. The energy consumption of the resistance heating method (61.2 kWh/kg KO2) was higher than other methods, and the process time in this method (35 seconds) was shorter than other methods. Additionally, the product yield with this method (0.02 kg/hr) was higher than that of the EHD method.
