Novel Method for Domestic Stable Isotope Production (CRADA #667) Final Report

This report presents the progress achieved on our chlorine isotope separation efforts in the CRADA #667 agreement. We used a microchannel distillation (MCD) packing structure to enrich HCl isotopes (H35Cl, H37Cl) and an isotachophoresis (ITP) separation to enrich ionic chloride species (35Cl- and 37Cl-). A 2 m tall MCD column was constructed and achieved 264 separation stages over several days, which is well above the goal of 50 stages outlined in the CRADA. The resulting height equivalent to a theoretical plate (HETP) was 0.76 cm. ITP tests were run ~ 24 hours and achieved a single-stage separation factor of 1.559.

3 He Separation from US Liquid Natural Gas-Derived 4 He (Final Report)

This final report summarizes the technical and economic feasibility study conducted by Interlune, Lisbon Group, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory on separating 3 He from 4 He derived from liquid natural gas (LNG) using magnetocaloric liquefaction (MCL), superleak heat-flush, and fractional distillation techniques. The project aims to address the growing shortage of 3 He, a critical resource for quantum computing and national security, by exploring a new domestic source, the bulk helium supply.
