Alicats are cited in peer-reviewed literature on topics from carbon capture to polymer synthesis to surfactant characterization
Biosphere 2 was built to simulate the original biosphere – Earth! In 2019, an 80-scientist team used Alicat mass flow controllers to release carbon dioxide spiked with an isotopic tracer into a rainforest biome to study the impacts of climate change on tropical rainforests.
Cryogenic temperatures are highly dependent on pressure. Boiloff can be tightly controlled in dewars using back pressure or active headspace pressure control.
The Veloce echelle spectrograph confirms and measures the mass of previously unknown planets. Dr. James Gilbert of the Australian National University needed pressure stability of 5 mbar in an 1800 L volume with significant leaks.
Inchfab is creating ultra-low cost, high performance fabrication tools. Improving process control conditions and heat transfer between chuck assemblies lets them achieve greater repeatability and spatial uniformity.
Birds and mammals both produce sound using the MEAD mechanism. Dr. Coen Elemans and his team used a dual-valve pressure controller to study the aerodynamics of vocal tissue oscillations.
