• Determine the magnitude and kinetics of the induced tritium flux from the breeding region from the blanket to the helium cooling loop,
• The design (sizing and efficiency) of future tritium extraction systems of the breeding alloy or the He coolant purification system will be defined on the basis of these transport parameters.

early 90´s
• Key upgrades and investments: - vacuum pumps and advanced seals, - pressure heads, - quartz components and W sample holder, - data acquisition improvement,
2003-2005
• Improvement/expertise of I(A-D)E measurement technique for LiPb eutectic
> 2006
• Facility recovered at EHU/Bilbao with regional and national programme support.
by 2002
• Reiter conceived (as sole facility in the world able to produce reversible I(A-D) measurements in liquids), developed and exploited at JRC-Ispra (I)
• Identifications of a large set of parasitic effects in the measurement: key for reproducibility
today • A unique EU R&D FT capability fully operational.• Sensitivity for other low H-absorbing materials and
much lower absorbing gases (He)

11. Conclusions12. Near term prospected (proposed) activities
• Desorption results (2009) confirm range of absorption ones (2008) showing global consistence and confirms Es of Reiter´s tests
• High Ks (compared to Reiter´s one) can be explained in terms of LiPb QA (Li in excess assessed for Stachow GmB material)
• Convection is assessed. High D derived values can be explained by convection.

11. Conclusions12. Near term prospected (proposed) activities
• A fully operational facility providing transport data in LiPb eutectic keeps available at UPV-EHU/Bilbao for future new tasks uses:- further H/D experimental runs,- He transport measurements in LiPb
• A complementary facility, PCTPRO2000®, is developed. Changes have been made to improve measurements accuracy, and in order to avoid parasitic effects.
