The benefit of such a system is that the helium delivery tank pressure need not be as high as that used in the partial pressure method of blending and residual gas can be 'topped up' to best mix after the dive. This is important mainly because of the high cost of helium.
The amount of helium that must be decanted is very simple to calculate: Multiply the desired gas fraction of helium (F He) by the total filling pressure (P tot) to get partial pressure of helium (P He). In the case of the Tx 20/40, in a 230 bar cylinder, this would be 230 bar x 40% = 92 bar (or for a 3,000 psi fill, it would require 3,000 x 40% ...
In 2015 author and right-to-die advocate Derek Humphry reported that Worthington Industries, the world's largest manufacturer of disposable helium cylinders, had announced that their helium cylinders will guarantee only 80% helium, with up to 20% air, making them inappropriate for use with a suicide bag in Humphry's opinion.

Lowe’s reaffirmed its outlook, projecting total sales between $83 billion and $83.5 billion (consensus estimate: $83.34 billion). The company expects comparable sales to decline by 3.0% to 3.5% ...
From 2002 to 2007 helium prices doubled. [83] As of 2012, the United States National Helium Reserve accounted for 30 percent of the world's helium. [84] The reserve was expected to run out of helium in 2018. [84] Despite that, a proposed bill in the United States Senate would allow the reserve to continue to sell the gas.
That’s where helium comes in: With a boiling point of minus 452 degrees Fahrenheit, liquid helium is the coldest element on Earth. Pumped inside an MRI magnet, helium lets the current travel ...
