| Title: | Design and performance of pump-mix and gravity-flow mixer-settlers. |
| Authors: | Royston, D Burwell, A |
| Issue Date: | Apr-1973 |
| Publisher: | Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation |
| Abstract: | The historical development of pump-mix and gravity-flow mixer-settlers is reviewed and their operating and design features, including scale-up, are discussed. An experimental study of the hydraulic operating characteristics of two such units, an AAEC designed pump-mix mixer-settler based on the original KAPL work and a UKAEA Windscale gravity-flow mixer-settler is described. The pump-mix unit was shown to be less flexible in operation than the gravity-flow unit and it is shown that an increase in size of all the ports will increase the throughput of the pump-mix mixer-settler. |
