The Cascading Problem in a Water Distillation Plant for Heavy Water Production

Abstract
A criterion for the designing of minimum specific volume cascades is generalized to be applicable in the case of large enrichments of the stages. The practical solution of the cascading problem is also described for a water distillation plant for heavy water production which is supposed to use geothermal steam from the Larderello zone (Tuscany), taking into account the variability of the separation factor within the columns, due to the pressure drop.
