13L Filters™ Nuclear Products
Filters (Page 6 - 12)Filters are used to remove fine suspended particles from fluid streams. CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. supplies liquid filters for nuclear plant applications such as: reactor coolant, coolant water make-up, condensate treatment, steam generator blow down, spent fuel pool water clean-up, radwaste clean-up, laundry rinse clean-up, pump seal injection and filters for control rod drive mechanisms and other applications. Filters in radioactive environments are designed for remote operation. Covers are equipped with gear box operators. CCI Thermal uses captive bolts that remain on the cover and do not fall when the cover is removed. The cover seal gasket is incorporated into the filter cartridge or filter basket, eliminating the need for a separate cover gasket. Filters from CCI Thermal are designed with advanced filter media that provide optimum filtration efficiency, dirt holding capacity and pressure drop. Filters are qualified for radioactive environments and are available with micron ratings from as low as 0.1 micron up to 100 micron.
Filter Cartridges and Filter Baskets (Page 12)CCI Thermal nuclear filters incorporate high efficiency cartridges which provide optimum dirt holding capacity and low pressure drop. Filtering media is carefully selected to suit the specific nuclear application. A filter vessel may contain a single cartridge or a filter basket incorporating multiple cartridges. Cartridges and baskets have extraction couplings allowing remote handling using special tools. Cartridges are designed for either incineration or crushing to reduce disposal volume.
Strainers (Page 13)Strainers are used to remove coarse suspended particles from fluid systems. CCI Thermal supplies strainers for capturing resin fines from deep bed ion exchange columns, up-stream strainers to protect pumps and other hydraulic rotating machinery and strainers for miscellaneous applications. The broad product line includes: cast Y strainers, fabricated Tee strainers, in-line strainers, blow down strainers and duplex strainers. Strainer baskets are manufactured using either perforated stainless sheets or, for finer straining, wire mesh sandwiched between perforated sheets for strength. Baskets are designed for high rupture pressure.
Emergency Core Cooling Strainers (Page 14)Emergency Core Cooling (ECC) strainers provide protection for the reactor emergency core coolant pump and containment spray system pump under LOCA conditions. ECC strainers are used to capture the large amount of pipe insulation and other debris that is dislodged in the event of LOCA. They are designed to guarantee low head loss in order for the pump to continue operation. ECC strainers are customized for installation in an existing plant with minimal changes to plant infrastructure. CCI Thermal ECC strainers are tested per GSI-191 guidelines.
Ion Exchange Columns (Page 14)Ion exchange columns are used to remove dissolved radionuclides from boiler condensate water, reactor coolant water and fuel pool water. They use cation, anion or mixed bed resins. The resin exchanges undesirable ions present in water with harmless ions. CCI Thermal ion exchange columns use a built-in flow distributor for maximizing bed efficiency and have built-in resin retention screens.
Filter Demineralizers (Page 14)Filter demineralizers are used to remove dissolved radionuclides from condensate water, reactor coolant water and fuel pool water. Filter demineralizers are an alternative to deep bed ion exchange columns in applications where the dissolved ion concentration is low. A filter demineralizers is a filter equipped with special septa over which a specially-formulated powdered resin is pre-coated. As the contaminated water flows through the precoat, both the ion exchange and filtration processes occur in one step.
Hydrogen Recombiners (Page 15)Hydrogen is released into the nuclear plant containment area under LOCA conditions. In the longer term under normal operation, radiolysis and corrosion can also increase hydrogen levels to the extent that a potentially explosive mixture of hydrogen and air could be present. To mitigate hydrogen concentration, catalytic recombiners are installed in the containment. Recombiners use a catalyst made of porous material treated with metals such as platinum and palladium. The catalyst provides sites where hydrogen and oxygen atoms from air come into close vicinity and chemically react to form water, thus reducing hydrogen concentration.
Restriction Orifices and Flow Elements (Page 15)There are many uses for restriction orifices in nuclear plants. Their main purpose is to reduce downstream pressure. Depending upon the degree of pressure reduction, single-stage or multi-stage orifices are used. Flow elements are used for precise measurement of flow. CCI Thermal supplies precision machined restriction orifices and flow elements that provide 1% accuracy. These units are manufactured from corrosion and abrasion-resistant material to maintain accuracy for the life of the plant.
Separators (Page 15)Process waste water gets contaminated with leakage of lubrication oil or coolants used in machinery. Oils must be removed prior to discharging the spent water into the sewer system. CCI Thermal oil water separators use mechanical impingement and coalescing media to strip the oil from water. These systems can also be supplied with acid/ base metered injection to neutralize the pH of the water.
Fuel Gas Conditioning Systems (Page 15)Fuel gas conditioning skids are used upstream of natural gas turbines which are used in auxiliary or emergency power generation units. Fuel gas conditioning skids remove contaminants and water moisture from the natural gas and provide appropriate heating to inhibit formation of hydrates that severely affect turbine performance.

11 Radioactive Material Transportation Package (Page 16)CCI Thermal supplies packages for the transportation of radioactive material. The annulus between the concentric cylinders is filled with foam that provides protection to the inner cylinder in case of sever impacts.
Vapour Recovery Dryers (Page 16)Vapour recovery dryers are designed to remove moisture from air in the reactor building. In a CANDU reactor, they remove heavy water. Moist air is passed through a tower containing moisture-absorbing desiccant. Dry air is exhausted into the building. The desiccant is regenerated using hot, dry air. Both single and dual tower dryers are available.
Custom Engineered Module Systems (Page 17)CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. designs, manufactures and tests custom engineered module systems. These systems typically consist of process equipment supplied by CCI Thermal or other vendors. Module systems are supplied complete with all interconnecting piping, instrumentation and controls. Modules are fully tested and seismically-qualified where required. These systems are supplied as turnkey systems, ready for site installation and operation.
Pressure Vessels and Tanks (Page 17)CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. designs and manufactures pressure vessel and tanks for process systems and liquid storage. These can be supplied in carbon steel, stainless steel and other alloys. Tanks and pressure vessel are designed to ASME pressure vessel code and seismically analyzed as per plant specific requirements. These units can be supplied in various sizes, pressure and temperature conditions.

5 Ion Exchange Columns 6 Filter DemineralizersIon Exchange Column* Filter Demineralizer*
Deep bed ion exchange columns are used for deionizing reactor coolant or condensate water. These are filled with bead type resins. Cation, anion or mixed resins can be used to remove undesirable ionic species. A prefilter and after filter must be used with deep bed ion exchange columns to protect the resin and downstream equipment from discharged resin fines.
Precoat filters perform simultaneous filtration and ion exchange. Filter septa is precoated with powdered resin. As the water flows through precoat septa, the suspended particles adhere to the precoat media. As water passes through the precoat resin, the ion exchange process takes place. Spent resin is back flushed.

There are many orifices used in a nuclear plant. Their main purpose is to reduce downstream pressure.
Flow Elements are designed for precise measurement of flow to within 1% accuracy.
Accuracy deteriorates due to corrosion and abrasion of precisely machined bores and profile. Therefore non-corrosive material which is abrasion resistant is used.
9 Separators 10 Fuel Gas Conditioning SystemsOil Water Separators* Fuel Gas Conditioning Systems*
Drain water is usually contaminated with hydrocarbon oils from machine oil leakage. Prior to disposal drain water should be stripped of oil and contaminants. Oil Water Separator removes hydrocarbon oils and suspended contaminants. These units include prefilters and coalescers. A metered acid/base injection system can be incorporated for pH control if desired.
Fuel Gas Conditioning Systems are used to process natural gas fuel for the auxiliary power supply turbines. Turbines require fuel gas which is dry and at temperatures above its dew point.
Cleaning is accomplished through the use of 3L filters and coalescers which remove suspended particles and moisture.
Heating to above dew point is done to avoid formation of hydrates.
Pressure reduction is done to regulate pressure for the type of turbine.
*Custom engineered solutions available.

11 Radioactive Material Transportation PackagesIrradiated Material Transportation Packages* ECC Strainer Module*
The Irradiated Material Transportation Package is designed to safely transport radioactive material such as zirconium specimens and spent fuel bundles within a nuclear plant building.
The Multi Purpose Transportation Package is designed to safely transport radioactive material from a nuclear plant to the disposal site. The unit is designed to withstand a severe fall and mounts on a special trailer.
12 Vapour Recovery DryersSingle Tower D2O Vapour Recovery Dryer CANDU-6* Dual Tower D2O Vapour Recovery Dryer CANDU-6*
The Single Tower D2O Vapour Recovery Dryer removes heavy water vapour from reactor buildings. It consists of a tower filled with desiccant. Wet air is forced into the desiccant tower which absorbs water moisture. Dry air is re-circulated into the building. Desiccant is regenerated by passing hot air through it. Moisture is picked up by the hot air and condensed to recover heavy water.
The Twin Tower Dryer works the same way as a Single Tower Dryer, except that it provides continuous operation because one tower is regenerating while the other is adsorbing.

13 Custom Engineered Module SystemsEngineered Module Tritium Removal Facility LPCE Skid Engineered Module Tritium Removal Facility Dryer Skid
The Liquid Phase Catalytic Exchange Skid is a part of the Tritium Removal Plant. It is designed to remove tritium from tritiated heavy water to the deuterium gas phase. The skid consists of two packed bed catalyst columns (mounted off the skid), transfer pumps, heaters, filters and nitrogen heat exchangers. The nitrogen heat exchanger is used to regenerate and dry the catalyst.
The Dryer Skid is a part of the Tritium Removal Plant. It is designed to remove heavy water from deuterium gas. Deuterium gas containing heavy water flows to the pre-dryer condenser to condense heavy water vapour that is collected. Cold saturated D2 gas is then processed in a multistep process in a desiccant dryer. Dried D2 gas and condensed heavy water are transferred downstream for further processing.
14 Pressure Vessels & Tanks
Pressure Vessels Tanks
Pressure Vessels are designed to ASME pressure vessel code. They operate at high pressures from approximately 150 psi to over 3000 psi. Pressure vessels can be a simple empty tank for storage of fluids under high pressure or it can incorporate a complex interior in order to achieve a particular process.
Tanks are usually designed for atmospheric or low pressure. Their main usage is for storage or mixing of liquids. CCI Thermal custom designs and manufactures pressure vessels and tanks in accordance with ASME code and plant specific requirements.
