The Theory of Isotope Separation by Countercurrent Chemical Exchange
The theory of isotope separation by countercurrent chemical exchange is worked out in detail using the continuous transfer concept. A comparison is made with discrete stagewise processes such as gaseous diffusion and with various general concepts of solvent extraction. The effects of a cell structure in the flow system is also worked out. An elementary design procedure is included both for the no-loss case and the case where the losses are small. In addition, a method of estimating stage lengths or transfer rate constants from small scale batch experiments is presented.
