Controlling the atmosphere involves a combination of techniques and equipment:
1. Inert Gases: Use of _inert gases_ like nitrogen or argon to prevent unwanted reactions. 2. Gas Mixers: Devices that precisely mix different gases in specific ratios. 3. Pressure Control: Regulation of pressure using _pressure regulators_ and _vacuum pumps_. 4. Temperature Control: Use of furnaces, heaters, or coolers to maintain the desired temperature. 5. Moisture Control: Employing _desiccants_ or humidity controllers to manage moisture levels.
