De meest economische manier om helium te produceren is de winning uit aardgas

Heliumgas is een kleur- en reukloos edelgas. Het kan gebruikt worden voor koeling, het vullen van ballonnen of als beschermgas bij het lassen.

Wat is helium?

Helium is een kleurloos en reukloos edelgas en heeft het laagste kookpunt van alle elementen. Na waterstof is helium het meest voorkomende element in het universum, dit komt doordat er bv in de zon kerfusie optreed waarbij waterstof wordt omgezet in helium, al komt het in de aardatmosfeer in zeer kleine hoeveelheden voor en is het een bijproduct bij de winning van aardgas. Er zijn maar weinig aardgasbronnen waar helium bij vrij komt, vandaar de schaarste die op dit product rust.

Hoe wordt helium gebruikt?

Helium wordt gebruikt voor koelen, het vullen van feest- of weerballonnen en als beschermgas bij het lassen. Bij lassen, dient de in de laserbuis ontstane warmte snel en efficiënt afgevoerd te worden. De hoge warmtegeleidbaarheid van de helium zorgt hiervoor. Helium wordt ook gebruikt voor lektesten, dit omdat het een zeer klein molecuul is, zo kan je een lek snel opsporen in combinatie met een detector. Hogere kwaliteit helium wordt gebruikt voor de gaschromatografie als draaggas. Vloeibaar helium heeft een temperatuur van ongeveer -269 graden Celcius en is daarom uitermate geschikt voor het superkoelen van magneten die in MRI’s of NMR’s worden gebruikt.

FAQs

Is there a shortage of helium gas? ›

The two-year helium shortage has officially ended, but the market's stability remains in question amidst ongoing supply uncertainties. “Helium Shortage 4.0 is over. It's not 'maybe it's over,' it's over,” declared Phil Kornbluth of Kornbluth Helium Consulting, at gasworld's European Specialty Gas Summit 2024.

Why is helium gas so expensive? ›

Unfortunately, the supply of helium is limited because it is a nonrenewable resource. What's surprising is that helium is one of the most abundant elements in the universe. The problem is that its supply on earth is very limited.

Where does helium gas come from? ›

Where does helium come from? Helium is a non-renewable natural resource that is most commonly recovered from natural gas deposits. Geologic conditions in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas make the natural gas in these areas some of the most helium-rich in the world (with concentrations between 0.3 percent and 2.7 percent).

What is the forecast for helium gas? ›

Market Overview

The Helium Gas Market is projected to grow from USD 30,394.66 million in 2024 to USD 42,241.47 million by 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2%.

What happens if we run out of helium? ›

If our supply ran out, it could spell the end of MRI testing, LCD screens and birthday party balloons. Or it could make all of those things much more expensive. Although argon — another inert gas — can be substituted for helium for welding purposes, no other element can do what helium can do in super cold applications.

Which countries supply helium? ›

It is found under the Earth's crust with other natural gases. Commercial helium is extracted from natural gas when the helium concentra on is above 0.3%. The U.S., Qatar and Algeria have the world's major helium reserves, while the U.S., Russia and Algeria are the top suppliers.

What year will we run out of helium? ›

In 2019, David Cole-Hamilton, emeritus professor of chemistry at the University of St Andrews, told the Independent that he estimated that the world had around 10 years left of helium unless more effort was put into recycling. Others suggest between 100 and 200 years of helium usage could be a best estimate.

What to use instead of helium? ›

Argon can be used instead of Helium and is favoured for some metals. Helium is used for many lighter-than-air applications, and Hydrogen is a possible substitute for many where the flammability of Hydrogen is not a concern.

What is cheaper than helium? ›

The Advantages of Hydrogen for Balloons

Hydrogen is better if you require a more substantial lift for your balloons as it is lighter than helium. It is also much easier to make than helium, making it the cheaper solution to your balloon needs.

Can helium be made artificially? ›

Helium can be found in abundance all over the universe. In fact, it is the second most abundant element known to man. Because of its chemical composition, it is not possible to produce helium artificially, which is why it is extracted from natural gas wells.

Where is helium mined in the US? ›

Helium occurs with other gasses in pockets beneath the Earth's surface. The most economical source of helium is natural gas, all of which contains some helium. Natural gas in the States of Texas, Kansas, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming is richer in helium than what has been recovered from other States.

Why does NASA buy so much helium? ›

NASA uses helium as an inert purge gas for hydrogen systems and a pressurizing agent for ground and flight fluid systems. Helium is also used throughout the agency as a cryogenic agent for cooling various materials and has been used in precision welding applications.

Who owns the most helium? ›

Apart from being the world's main producer and one of the largest helium consumers, the U.S holds the most extensive helium reserves worldwide. As of 2023, the country's helium reserves amounted to more than 8.5 billion cubic meters, surpassing the reserves of runners-up Algeria and Russia combined.

Why did the US sell its helium? ›

By the 1990s, Congress decided it had spent too much on the stockpile and directed the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to start selling it off. The agency did so at below market rates, which some say discouraged private companies from expanding their own helium operations.

Is helium gas a good investment? ›

There is a strong case to be made that buying shares in Helium One early could prove rewarding. Global helium supplies are declining while demand continues rising steadily in applications like MRI scanners, semiconductors, fibre optics, and rocket propulsion systems.

What are they replacing helium with? ›

Hence, Argon is a substitute for helium.

Can we create helium? ›

Can helium be made artificially? Helium can be found in abundance all over the universe. In fact, it is the second most abundant element known to man. Because of its chemical composition, it is not possible to produce helium artificially, which is why it is extracted from natural gas wells.

What is the current price of helium gas? ›

The live Helium price today is $6.18 with a 24-hour trading volume of $17.05M.

Is the US selling its helium? ›

Here's why the medical world is worried. On Thursday, the U.S. government sold the Federal Helium Reserve, a massive underground stockpile based in Amarillo, Texas, that supplies up to 30% of the country's helium.
