BENCHMARKING HYDROGEN ISOTOPE SEPARATION EFFICIENCY OF PD/K PACKED TCAP COLUMNS
Fusion science and technology(2023)
摘要
By leveraging the large isotope effect in the palladium hydrogen isotope system, the Thermal Cycling Absorption Process (TCAP) provides an efficient and advantageous means to separate protium, deuterium, and tritium. To meet increased future tritium processing demands, such as those needed for fusion power plants, current designs of the separation columns need to be adapted and optimized using the progress made in understanding hydrogen isotope science. One key to this optimization lies in understanding the baseline performance for currently employed separation packing materials. Pd/k and molecular sieves, as commonly used for the separation of hydrogen isotopes, are herein evaluated to establish a baseline for their separation efficiency. Van Deemter plots are formulated, and the influence of each parameter is evaluated to determine areas for improvement.
