Abstract

This paper discusses the experience gained in operating a cryogenic distillation system as an integral part of the TFTR fuel cycle, and the system's overall performance. The theoretical performance of the cryodistillation system was modelled by Ontario Hydro with a proprietary process simulation program intended for use with hydrogen isotope processing systems.
