Compact and Energy Efficient Distillation (CEED) for Tritium Recovery
Lead Participant:
S. & C. Thermofluids Limited
Abstract
The Compact and Energy Efficient Distillation for Tritium Recovery (CEED) project is a feasibility study to
investigate a game-changing arrangement of water distillation to achieve separation of tritium, a radioactive
isotope of hydrogen, from contaminated water. The project team will build an experimental facility to prove
the concept on a small scale and develop a simulation to demonstrate the potential to achieve up to 88%
energy recovery and a significant reduction in total height compared to traditional techniques. CEED will be led
by S & C Thermofluids Ltd in partnership with Bath Process Consultants Ltd and Flexible Process Consultants
Ltd.
