Abstract
An apparatus for isotope separation by the separating-nozzle process has a horizontally disposed cylindrical housing in which a multistage radial compressor is received, the compressor being surrounded by the cooling units and separating-nozzle units of the various stages connected in cascade. The system is extremely compact and has high efficiency because it is free from excessively long flow paths.
