Benoît Rouquayrol's Biography
French mining engineer who invented a diving suit and breathing apparatus, along with Auguste Denayrouze.
In 1860, Rouquayrol became concerned with mine safety problems related to firedamp (flammable natural gases in coal mines). He created a rescue apparatus consisting of a pressurized gas chamber coupled to a pressure regulator that he called the “Regulator for Equalization of Compressed Gas”. In 1864, with the help of the French Navy lieutenant Auguste Denayrouze (also of Aveyron), Rouquayrol created the first diving suit. This diving suit won the gold medal at the 1867 World’s Fair, and drew the attention of the author Jules Verne. Verne included the diving suit in his fictional depiction of a contemporary submarine voyage, 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.
Rouquayrol died on 14 November 1875 at Rodez, Aveyron, France.
