Heavy water isn’t hard water. It has a neutron in its hydrogen atom, about doubling the weight of the hydrogen which normally only has a proton. I believe we have to manufacture it with electrolysis. Congratulation though. Great news
Sir,We cannot use hard water which contains magnesium and calcium which solidify on inner walls of boiler ans act as thermal insulators reducing the efficiency of the power generation While heavy water means D2O contains two deuterium instead of hydrogen atoms giving it nuclear characteristics So hard water and Heavy water are not same, slide in the video shows hard water containing calcium and magnesium

Decent research and a good explanation for Layman understanding. Please allow me to clarify few things. *India has been operating 200MW and 550MW for almost 2 decades now. It is the 700MW unit that is first of its kind. The news article says "India builts its first 700MW nuclear reactor" Nuclear Reactors are not build in 2-3 years. The planning, development and administrative process were carried out before modi government came to the power. Associating this with a particular government would indicate unnecessary political biasedness. What is being delivered now is a fruit of the efforts of the previous government. In contrast to the public opinion, R&D in India is at the same pace as it was before, if not reduced due to now overly tedious purchase process. (I am qualified to say this) * Secondly, -PWR is technology of the US, -PHWR is canadian design -BWR is of Europe's design (now slowly being phased out) -Graphite moderated reactors were Russian designare (now phased out due to their risky nature; remember Chernobyl? ) MSBR, AGR, SMR are demonstrate concepts whose safety costs outweighs the economic viability. PWR is superior to all. Basically simple and robust design. Fuel it once and forget it for 30 years. India uses PHWR type only because it can runs on natural uranium. Frequent online refuelling (usually few times an year) is required which increases radiation and proliferation risk associated with material handling. As per IAEA's standard India doesn't even have the Uranium ore. Still, India works with what it has, as best as it can. *All radio isotope generation and other things can be done in any nuclear reactors. PWRs being haveing relatively higher neutron flux are infact more efficient at that. *Heavy water and hard water are different thing. Hard water has dissolved salts that make it hard while heavy water doesn't have any salts but the atoms itself are deuterium instead Hydrogen. It is costly and cannot be extracted from aquifers. Heavy water for indian nuclear reactors is supplied by heavy water board (HWB). Moreover, the heavy water is only used as neutron moderator, not for cooling. It is the light water that runs into primary cycle that is used for cooling. PHWR reactor is not inherently safe like PWRs. We should be proud at our achievement but at the same time not overlook out limitations. Particularly in nuclear industry. It is that kind ideology that resulted in Chernobyl.
Sir, Hard water and Heavy water are two different things. Heavy water is D2O, while Hard water is H20 with salts of Chlorides, Carbonates and Sulphates.
I'm a fan of CANDU-type reactors, which India's PHWR discussed here seems to be an offshoot. However, as the narrator insists on saying, heavy water (D2O) and hard water (H20 laced with dissolved minerals) are hardly synonymous with one another.
Like to add a point that D2O is hard to find due to its rare presence and also separating it out form normal H2O, which makes it a critical component for the whole operation

You meant heavy water, not hard water. Heavy water is not naturally available it uses deuterium its hydrogen isotope. Hard water will have various silicates, chlorides fluorides etc in it.
I think there was a bit of confusion in the beginning. Hard water is water with a good amount of dissolved salts. Heavy water, on the other hand, is water that has varying degrees of extra protons 2H (Deuterium) and 3H (Tritium - very rare).
@Amit Sengupta: 2:00 It is not hard water, it is heavy water. Heavy water is an isotope of normal water where deuterium bonds with oxygen instead of hydrogen. Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with one extra neutron. The extra neutron increases the likelihood of slowing down the speeding neutrons, and therefore, is a better moderator compared to normal water. Hard water is simply normal water mixed with several minerals / salts.
You are coming out with a very informative video after a rather longish hiatus. Need more of your well researched video knowledge trove to stay informed.
Sir, you should've also added how the outcoming hot water is discharged. Untreated or warm water discharge often lowers down the pH levels of the water body thereby destroying the river biodiversity of that area.
2:25 #Hard water - Ca++ or Mg++ ions in regular tap water are bad for reactor. It leaves white residue on boiling. #Heavy water - D2O (not H2O) is good. D stands for Deuterium isotope of Hydrogen with 1 proton & 1 nutron.
Dear Amit You have an amazing voice and great command on English. 👌 However, there's a correction that needs to be made in your text. Heavy water is made up of Dueterium Oxide ( D20) which is mildly radioactive. Whereas, hard water is made of dissolved salts, like calcium magnesium sulphates and chlorides!
Please correct. PHWR uses heavy water which is water with the deuterium isotope if hydrogen. It is produced from natural sources of hydrogen through cycles if enrichment. India is presently the largest producer of heavy water. Hard water is essentially impure water which cannot be used in any industry as it is.
Last 20 yrs we are still building FBR in kalpakkam after 13 yrs research i.e. 33 yrs lost, although they went ahead with production plan after Prototype FBR has been running 8 yrs in criticality. I don't know why there is so much disparity between nuclear scientist in 2 different locations

Bhavani project which was expected to add 4000 MW wasn't ever completed for the last 20 yrs. It is a total failure. Also 3000 MW planned in Kudamkulam didn't take off and the existing 1000 MW availability is less than 50%. Both the projects were envisioned to be cloned to get 14% of overall energy production but unfortunately nuclear scientists have failed both projects
Can and certainly should. But probably PH gov more inclined towards Rosatom PHWR designs like VVER-1200 or the Kepco APR-1400. Personally I think they should try to get into a JV with Indian atomic agency for equal funding, development of next gen IPWR-900 which is in the making.
