Comparison of ion exchange methods for lithium-7 isotopic enrichment for application in PWR reactors

Comparison of ion exchange methods for lithium-7 isotopic enrichment for application in PWR reactors

7Li in the form of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH·H₂O), remains liquid over a wide temperature range (180 to 1340ºC), making it an excellent pH controller on reactor coolant in Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs). In contrast, 6Li is a strong neutron absorber and unsuitable for PWRs, whereas 7Li...
