This paper describes the multi-anvil, large-volume, high-pressure facility that is being constructed at the GeoSoilEnviroCARS at the Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory. The facility consists of multi-anvil high pressure systems at the end stations of the bending magnet and the insertion device beamline at Sector 13. Various pressure apparatus will be used to cover pressure and temperature conditions up to 40 GPa and 3000°C, with millimeter sized samples at high pressure end and centimeter sized samples at low pressure end. This national facility is open to all users and a variety of high pressure, high temperature experiments will be carried out.
