Definitions

  • the present invention relates to apparatus, systems and methods for the recovery and purification of Hydrogen isotopes and fusion by-products. More particularly, the present invention relates to an ion Separation System and in particularly, a Cross-Field H-lsotope Separation System.
  • Tritium-operated Fusion reactors present a challenge when recovering and purifying Hydrogen isotopes and fusion by-products.
  • the recovery of expensive tritium and deuterium from fusion exhaust gases emitted by tokamaks or any other fusion reactor are composed of a range of light gases including hydrogen isotopes.
  • the tritium may have to go through the reactor 100s of times before its fully converted into energy by the fusion reactor.
  • high recovery rates of tritium and deuterium per fuel cycle from the exhaust gas is critical to the economics of the fuel cycle.
  • Prototype Isotope separation plants based on both Cryogenic distillation (CD) and Gas Chromatographs (GC) have been built as part of the Joint European Torus tokamak project (JET) active gas handling system.
  • the CD system was designed for 30g of tritium 60g deuterium and achieved high purity (99.989% of tritium).
  • Said CD system consisted of 3 columns (with 100 stages each) each 8m tall operating at cryogenic temperatures (21K).
  • the recent H3AT plant tender at UK Atomic Energy Authority UKAEA has focused on CD, as has the ITER project. Cryogenic processes are hugely energy intensive.
  • Cryogenic distillation is a known method of tritium and deuterium recovery from fusion reactor exhaust gasses.

CD plants are inherently large with distillation towers measuring up to 20 meters or more in height and processing equipment taking a whole building. In contrast, each CHISS system can be as small as 1m 3 in volume.
  • the permanent magnet version of the current invention is estimated to cost under £50k per unit and does not require electricity for the electromagnet further improving efficiency with a capital cost estimated to be around £.75m for a 30g plant.

  • the combination of CHISS intelligently applied to the fuel cycle with appropriate vacuum pumps could result in a recovery rate nearing 100%.
  • Environmental legislation on tritium leakage from future fusion power plants have not been fixed but based on current indications they could be set at 3g per year making 100% recovery a key factor.
