Flexible solutions for long-term storage

Depending on your unique needs, a Laker TRF AWD tritium removal facility can be configured for multiple scenarios for T2 immobilization. At a CANDU® nuclear power station, these include:

• Pure volume reduction for long-term storage and decay

• Small Cryogenic Distillation or Thermal Diffusion back-end

Cryogenic Distillation or Thermal Diffusion back-end for CANDU reactors

How our Tritium Removal process works

At the heart of our AWD(Advanced Water Distillation) technology lies our super-hydrophilic glass coated activated stainless-steel packing. This AWD front-end is decoupled from small back-end processes, which produces:

• Immobilized 99% T2 product

• Stable isotope products 3He and H218O (>97%)

We utilize non-crygenic thermal diffusion(TD) as a final tritium enrichment step, This captured tritium can be re-used and recycled for use in various industries, including self-illimuninating sign
