Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: How OSU’s Helium Recovery System is leading innovation in sustainability

Margaret Eastman and Jimmie Weaver were challenged to think outside of the box to keep their department’s work going. The result was Oklahoma’s only helium recovery system (HRS) that liquefies recovered helium gas.
