Abstract
A lasing system for forming a sealed barrier between a process environment and an environment external to the process environment. The lasing system includes a wall enclosing the process environment. The lasing system also includes a laser connector coupled to the wall and a line. It should also be added that in one exemplary embodiment, the laser connector is configured to be releasably coupled to the wall and the line. The line, such as for example a fiber optic line, provides the lasing system with laser energy from a high-powered laser. In one exemplary embodiment, the energy from the laser is between 100 to about 1000 watts. Operatively, the wall and the laser connector form an environmental barrier between the process environment and the outside environment.
