Helium, He, is an inert chemical. Hence recycling it is easily done since it doesn't react with other chemicals easily-- so long as it doesn't escape into the atmosphere. There it would be so dilute that recycling could be difficult.
Helium is extracted from natural gas deposits by processing the gas through a cryogenic gas separation plant. The plant cools the gas to extremely low temperatures, causing the helium to liquefy and separate from the other gases. The helium is then captured and further purified for commercial use.
The element helium is today predominantly made by the fusion of hydrogen in the cores of stars. The formation of a helium nucleus (two protons, two neutrons) from single protons (hydrogen nuclei) releases vast amounts of energy, as occurs in thermonuclear atomic weapons. Much of the existing helium in the universe is thought to have been created before stars existed, in the Big Bang.
Helium is also produced as "alpha particles" in radioactive decay of unstable heavy elements. It is found within natural gas deposits released from the the Earth.
Yes but it is not cost effective now for most people, a small compressor will cost you 5000.00 us dollars plus hoses and it will not be as pure as it was, but it will take it to 2200 psi, I would love to have one of my own but currently spend less than 500 a year on helium 400 cubic feet at a time when I use my advertising blimp.
Helium is extracted by fractional distillation (the separation of a mixture into its component parts, or fractions) from natural gas which contains up to 7% helium. Since helium has a lower boiling point than any other element, low temperature and high pressure are used to liquefy nearly all the gases, mostly nitrogen and methane.
At a unique temperature and pressure combination all gases will condense into liquids. So if you start with a volume of ordinary air and start to cool and squeeze it the different gases will proceed to condense out of the volume.
Helium is a natural gas which is found in America
Helium can be made by the nuclear fusion of two hydrogen nucleus. A very high temperature (about 107 K) is needed for this and such reactions can be seen in the core of the Sun.
Helium is relatively rare on Earth, as it escapes the atmosphere and is not replenished. It is often extracted from natural gas deposits, making it a valuable but finite resource.

Erm, no coal isn't a mineral - it is a rock. I wouldn't describe it as being extracted from the bowels of the Earth - it's mined.
It is taken through a pipe.
Rocks are extracted from the Earth's crust, which is the outermost layer. This is where most of the solid rocks are found, including those suitable for mining and quarrying.
Helium is extracted from natural gas wells.
Helium is typically mined by extracting it from natural gas deposits underground. When natural gas is extracted, the helium is separated from the gas using a series of processing steps. Helium can also be extracted as a byproduct of some nuclear reactions.
Helium is found in the sun or stars. It is also found in the Earth's atmosphere. +++ And underground: a stable product of the natural radioactive decay of uranium, and extracted commercially from natural-gas. That in the atmosphere may well have been released by volcanoes.
Helium is found in small amounts in the Earth's atmosphere, as well as in natural gas deposits underground. It is primarily extracted during the processing of natural gas. Helium can also be found in some minerals, but in very small quantities.
Helium is extracted as a by-product of methane. Because the technology is difficult helium is expensive.
Helium is a natural element that is extracted from underground gas deposits through a process called helium mining. It is not synthetic, but rather a naturally occurring element found in the Earth's crust.
Helium is an element on the periodic table and is one of the basic building blocks of the universe. It is formed through nuclear fusion in stars, releasing helium during the process. On Earth, helium is extracted from natural gas deposits through a process called fractional distillation.
Einsteinium is not extracted from the earth, it is an artificial element.
Helium is most commonly found in natural gas deposits deep underground, where it is produced as a byproduct of the natural decay of radioactive elements. It is also found in small amounts in the Earth's atmosphere, although it is typically extracted from natural gas reserves.
it is extracted from electrolysis of potash.
The percentage of helium in Earth's atmosphere is very low, around 0.0005%. Most helium on Earth is found in natural gas deposits underground and is extracted through specialized processes, as it is not a significant component of the air we breathe.
A pearl is not extracted from the earth. They are found in oyster's shells. The term for it is harvesting oysters.
