Title:
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SEPARATING TRITIATED AND HEAVY WATER FROM LIGHT WATER VIA A CONICAL CONFIGURATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006007426
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An system for separating tritiated water from common water, using gravity and the freezing point of tritiated water to cause tritiated water to freeze along the inside of a conically-shaped collection chamber. The common water and liquid tritiated water that pass out the bottom of the conically-shaped collection chamber are pumped back to the top of the conically-shaped collection chamber for repeated runs until sufficient tritiated water has frozen to the inside of the conically-shaped collection chamber. A water wheel is positioned to assist in powering the pump that drives water through repeated runs.
