PAREX, A numerical Code for process design and integration
The modeling approach for process design is illustrated in this paper by the work done to qualify the PAREX code to design the flow sheet of a uranium/plutonium splitting operation in a pulsed column. The different flow sheet experimentations are presented along with the simulation results. The qualified code has been successfully used to design the flow sheet of this operation in the first purification cycle of UP2-800 plant at La Hague. (authors)
