Method for controlling uranium enrichment systems

Creators

Description

A method for controlling the operation of uranium enrichment systems in which gaseous uranium compounds are processed comprises separating at one or a plurality of precipitation points in the system the process uranium gas and/or its secondary products in small quantities, measuring the radiation of the separated uranium gas and/or its secondary products, identifying the age of the gas passing through the precipitation points by means of the radioactive radiation measurements and then controlling a parameter of the system with the accumulated data of the process gas and its secondary products. 6 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures
