Analysis of the Operating Conditions of a Continuous Linear Crystallizer

Аннотация

The operation of a linear crystallizer, which performs crystallization extraction of uranium from a nitric acid solution of uranyl nitrate during nuclear reprocessing, is analyzed. Equations for the evaluation of the characteristics of the continuous operation of the apparatus are given, namely, the extraction efficiency of the crystal phase and the filling time of the storage container of the apparatus with the crystals of uranyl nitrate hexahydrate. The estimates are compared with the results of computer calculations and experimental data.
