Systems and methods provide for a nitrogen generation and oxygen distribution system (102). According to one aspect, the system (102) includes a nitrogen generation system (104) and an oxygen distribution processor (116) coupled to the nitrogen generation system (104). The nitrogen generation system (104) creates nitrogen enriched air (106) as the primary product for fuel tank (108) use, and oxygen enriched air (110) as a secondary product. The oxygen distribution processor (116) is operative to determine a number of flight parameters (119), and from those parameters (119), provide an oxygen distribution command to an oxygen distribution valve (118) in order to prevent the oxygen enriched air (110) from being distributed, to route the oxygen enriched air (110) to the ambient environment (112), or to route the oxygen enriched air (110) to an aircraft engine (114) to increase combustion efficiency.
