The application discloses a method and device for preparing elements
on demand by means of controllable
nuclear fusion-nuclear transmutation with
deuterium (
hydrogen isotope) as the only
raw material, belonging to the technical field of controllable
nuclear physics and element synthesis, and suitable for laboratory small-batch research scenarios. The core is that under controllable conditions in the laboratory, 10-15 MeV high-energy neutrons are generated by
deuterium nuclear fusion, and low-radioactivity / stable target materials are directionally bombarded, and stable products such as noble metals and
rare earth elements are directionally prepared through nuclear transmutation and decay (1-50g per single preparation), the reaction by-products can be recycled, the fusion
energy recovery rate is greater than or equal to 30%, and the external power supply accounts for less than or equal to 70%, which does not constitute unlimited energy output. The total floor area of the device is less than or equal to 10 m2, and the total power is less than or equal to 200 kW, and the device has the advantages of wide
raw material sources, environmental friendliness, strong
controllability and the like, and can be applied to the fields of
noble metal preparation,
new energy material synthesis, harmless treatment
simulation of nuclear waste and the like, and fills the technical gap of global laboratory-level
deuterium-based element preparation
on demand.
