Gaseous diffusion — is a technology used to produce enriched uranium by forcing gaseous uranium hexafluoride, UF6, through semi permeable membranes. This produces a slight separation between the molecules containing uranium 235 and uranium 238. By use of a large… … Wikipedia
gaseous diffusion — noun : diffusion of gases through a porous barrier at a rate of speed in direct proportion to the weight of the molecules, being used as the basis of a method of separating isotopes (as fissionable uranium 235 from the nonfissionable uranium 238) … Useful english dictionary
