Sorption column for the separation of protactinium from a nuclear fuel solution

Creators

Description

Protactinium can be separated off from nuclear fuel solutions if one passes the solution through a sorption column of vycor glass. In order to enable a continuous process a formula is given which allows one to calculate the length of the column. The measures given in the example are 5.2 m length and 72 cm diameter. (UWI)

Abstract (German)

Protaktinium laesst sich aus Kernbrennstoffloesungen abtrennen, wenn man die Loesung durch eine Sorptionskolonne aus Vycor-Glas leitet. Um eine kontinuierliche Arbeitsweise moeglich zu machen, wird eine Formel angegeben, nach der man die Laenge der Kolonne berechnen kann. Die im Beispiel angegebenen Masse betragen 5,2 m Laenge bei 72 cm Durchmesser. (UWI)
