Modular ultrafiltration device for the cooling liquid of a nuclear reactor

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Modular ultrafiltration device for the cooling liquid of a nuclear reactor. The device comprises a containment absorbing radiation, an ultrafilter arranged in the containment, a concentrate circulation pump fastened to the removable cover of the containment a heat exchanger, placed in the containment and connection pieces intended, for the various parts of the ultrafilter and heat exchanger and passing through the wall of the containment in a leakproof manner. A heat-insulating material fills the inner volume of the containment. The modular device can easily be connected to an auxiliary circuit of the nuclear reactor. The ultrafiltration wall can be replaced without any difficulty.
