People often ask me, what is the difference between an oxygen absorber and oxygen scavenger?
In respect to small devices that are added to food, and pharmaceutical products, oxygen absorbers, oxygen scavenger are the same thing, just different names for the same thing.
Oxygen scavengers or oxygen absorbers are added to packaging with food or pharmaceutical products, much like silica gel, and then enclosed to modify the atmosphere in the packaging.
