Production of heavy water in India
From symposium on nuclear science and engineering; Bombay, India (13 Mar 1973). To meet the requirements of heavy water for the power reactors now under construction and those being planned, a program for providing adequate production capacity has been started. Various processes have been surveyed and the factors which have been considered in the choice of the processes adopted in India are presented. The H/sub 2/S--H/sub 2/0 exchange process adopted for the plant being set up at Kota and the ammoria--hydrogen exchange process adopted for the Baroda plant are briefly described. The status of the various plants under construction has been presented. The operating experience of the Nangal plant during the last ten years is included. (auth)
