Re:Qatar helium shutdown puts chip supply chain on a two-wee... by hedora on Friday March 13, 2026 @11:49PM (#47373159)
Today, I learned Helium does burn, and when it burns, it forms Carbon.

Granted, the flare gas probably doesn't reach the prerequisite 100M-200M kelvin. I suspect high pressure is also required so the Helium stays close to the heat source.
