MGU-DETRA – Multispeciuos Gas
Separation Installation to Produce ultraenriched Deuterium and Tritium by
Cryogenic Adsorption
Abstract
The universal cascade MGU-DETRA (Multispeciuos Gas
separator Upgrader to get ultraenriched DEuterium and TRitium by cryogenic
Adsorption) was developed at the Chemical Department of Moscow University in
the early 1980-s to satisfy the growing needs in individual dihydrogens (p-H2, o-H2, p-D2,
o-D2, p-, o-T2, HD, HT, DT) of high and ultrahigh purity in
various fundamental and applied research areas. The efficiency of the cascade
was proved by successful preparation of ultrapure deuterium and highly enriched
hydrogen deuteride (99,9999 mol.% D2 and 99,98 mol.% HD) for their
triple points implementation as the fixed points in the new version of
International Temperature Scale ITS-90. The article gives the description of
principal cascade layout.
