  Nitrox was introduced into recreational diving in the 1970s, when Dr Morgan Wells of the US' National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) began experimenting with the gas.Dr Wells was quick to recognise the advantages for the type of diving performed by NOAA divers.

  In 1970, Dr. Morgan Wells, the former Director of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Diving Center began instituting diving procedures for oxygen-enriched air.He also developed a process for mixing oxygen and air which he called a continuous blending system.For many years Dr. Wells' invention was the only practical alternative to partial pressure blending.In 1979 NOAA published Wells' procedures for the scientific use of Nitrox in the NOAA Diving Manual.

  Cowell's approach was based on the work of Dr. Morgan Wells, the former Director of NOAA.Well's idea was to inject the oxygen into the air intake of a compressor.By trial and error, Dr. Wells ended up using a corrugated pool hose attached to the compressor intake to mix the oxygen and air before it was drawn into the compressor.The problem he found was that to get a complete mix he had to have so many loops of hose that the intake flow was restricted, which caused damage to the compressor.If he removed some of the hose coils to enhance the intake flow, the mix was not complete, allowing slugs of oxygen into the compressor, which was also a potential problem.
