this is at 700% funded on the IG newsletter with 33 days left on the clock https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/triton-world-s-first-artificial-gills-re-breather when even a cursory Google of the science needed to make it work says 'hah nope'... do indiegogo really not give a poo poo as long as they get their cut?

Haha yeah the oxygen content of water is on the order of milligrams of O2 per litre of water.
