Performance comparison of matched-x cascades and pseudo binary type 1 cascades in the separation of isotope Te-123
In the present research, we addressed the investigation parameters of the two proposed cascade models for separation of multi-component mixtures (Matched-X and Pseudo binary type 1 cascades) to separate Te-123 isotope. Besides, we compared their performance by changing parameters k, k1, and k2. The...

| Summary: | In the present research, we addressed the investigation parameters of the two proposed cascade models for separation of multi-component mixtures (Matched-X and Pseudo binary type 1 cascades) to separate Te-123 isotope. Besides, we compared their performance by changing parameters k, k1, and k2. The results showed that for a cascade with 10 stages and feed stage 5 and feed flow rate 100 g.s-1, the minimum total interstage flow of the matched-X cascade occurs in the condition k = 7, k1 = 1 and k2 = 3, with the amount of 1881.133 g.s-1. In this case, the concentration of Te-123 in the product stream of the cascade is equal to 0.0349 while the maximum product concentration of Te-123 occurs at k = 1, k1 = 1 and k2 = 2 with the amount of 0.0389. In this cascade, the total inter stage flow is equal to 2159.914 g.s-1. Also, the results represented that in the Pseudo binary type 1 cascade, the minimum total interstage flow and maximum product concentration of Te-123 occur at the same time, in the condition k = 1, k1 = 1 and k2 = 2 with the amounts of 2159.914 and 0.0389 g.s-1, respectively. |
