English term or phrase: the reaction was evacuated
In un testo ho questa frase:

The reaction was sealed with a septum, evacuated
and then placed under a nitrogen atmosphere.

Cosa si intende per "evacuated"? Ho trovato che potrebbe essere inteso come sinomino di "exhaust", quindi dovrebbe indicare il fatto che vengono rimossi i gas?
