Abstract

The great advantages of heavy water as a moderator in nuclear reactors have been very largely offset by the difficulties of establishing a satisfactory and economical manufacturing process. This article reviews possible methods of preparation by catalytic exchange, with particular reference to a process, recently developed in Germany, for the enrichment of heavy water by high pressure exchange between hydrogen and an aqueous platinum catalyst suspension.
