Tritium self-sufficiency is a fundamental design requirement of a fusion fuel cycle, necessitated by the limited global availability of tritium relative to the fuelling demands of a fusion reactor. Minimising tritium losses within a fuel cycle is therefore essential. The Hydrogen Isotope Separation System (HISS) employs cryogenic distillation technology to remove excess protium and deuterium while rebalancing the deuterium–tritium (DT) mixture required for reactor operation. However, the HISS de
