Abstract
Apparatus and methods maintain constant composition of multi-component liquefied-gas mixtures (e.g., for battery electrolytes or refrigerants) during dispensing by transferring vapor from a second container to a first to compensate for selective evaporation. Embodiments use heating, constant-pressure cylinders, pumps, or cycled intermediate cylinders, with sensors for control. Systems enable full utilization with minimal waste, scalable for industrial applications.
