HTU Dependence on an Isotope Species - Experimental Study on "EVIO" Pilot Plant

Liquid Phase Catalytic Exchange (LPCE) process study is going on in PNPI. Separation performance expressed by Height of Transfer Unit (HTU) in deuterium-protium and deuterium-tritium systems was studied experimentally within one run of exchange column. Testing procedure and experimental results are presented in detail and discussed.
