MHD seed recovery/regeneration, Phase 2. Technical progress report quarter ending November 27, 1992
Task I calls for the design, procurement, construction, and installation of the Seed Regeneration Proof-of-Concept Facility (SRPF) that will produce tonnage quantities of recyclable potassium formate seed at a design rate of 250 lb/hr for testing in the channel at the CDIF while collecting data that will be used to upgrade the design of a 300 MW{sub t} system. Approximately 12 tons of KCOOH (dry basis) as 70--75 wt % solution have been produced. The long-term plant securing operations which were started in May were completed during this reporting period. Securing operations included both the front end of the plant (potassium sulfate reaction and solids separation/washing units) and the evaporator/crystallizer. In addition, weekly preventative maintenance was performed. TRW is awaiting word from the CDIF in Montana that it is alright to ship the 41 drums of concentrated potassium formate final product to Montana.
