NextGen MURR to partner with Burns & McDonnell
The University of Missouri has entered a consulting agreement with construction firm Burns & McDonnell to develop NextGen MURR, a new 20-MW light water research reactor that will produce medical isotopes for cancer treatments and theranostics and will be used to conduct neutron science research.

Experiments to determine the mass transfer efficiencies of the packed columns making up the Krypton Absorption in Liquid CO2 (KALC) process were performed at a nominal pressure of 2 MPa over a wide range of flow rates and flow ratios for the CO2-O2-Kr system. The height of the transfer unit values, which were relatively independent of gas or liquid flow rates, were 0.13 m for krypton in the absorber, 0.16 m for O2 in the fractionator, and 0.21 m for krypton in the stripper.
