DEVICE WORKING ON THE PRINCIPLE OF GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY FOR THE EXTRACTION OF HYDROGEN ISOTOPES FROM A GAS MIXTURE

摘要

The invention describes a means for separating isotopes of hydrogen which is based on the principle of gas chromatography and is suitable for separating large amounts of hydrogen as is necessary for fusion experiments. The substantially higher throughput in comparison to that of other analysis devices based on gas chromatography is rendered feasible by the fact that the packings of the separation columns and the collectors for absorbing the separate species contain inert additives which ensure even distribution of the gas flow.
