A Glass Still for the Evaluation of Column Packing With Uranium Hexafluoride

Description: The operating holdup and flooding rates of uranium hexafluoride, n-heptane, and perfluorodimethylcyclohexane have been studied in a glass still filled with 1/8 inch nickel Heli-Pak. The flooding rates of the latter two substances are 46.0 and 48.0 cc./min. respectively and the flooding rate for uranium hexafluoride, calculated from the Bertetti equation, is 42.9 cc./min. The operating holdups for these three substances on Heli-Pak were measured at several throughput rates up to the flooding rat… more
