Heavy water is used in making hydrogen bombs.
Heavy water is used in Nuclear reaction as a coolant, moderator and shield
Heavy water is used in nuclear reactors as moderator for neutrons.
heavy water plant should be near to fertilizer industry because heavy water is also used in manufacturing fertilizers and pesticides.
Heavy water is water with some gases extracted.if you put it in a barrel and put the barrel in water the barrel would sink.Theonly reason Hitler wanted heavy water was because heavy water is used in atomic bombs.the only place he could get the heavy water was Norway. fortunately the Brit's blew up the only cargo ship carrying the heavy water back to Germany...some heavy water is lost in a lake somewhere in norway...lost in time forever.
Heavy water occurs naturally in all water in a proportion of about one part in twenty million. In order to get a certain amount of heavcy water you have to isolate the heavy molecules out of a large quantity of water. The Germans used fresh water because there would have been no point in having to desalinize before they could even begin isolating the heavy water from the regular water. Heavy water is heavy because one of the hydrogen atoms in the water molecule has a neutron in its nucleus along with the proton.
Many pressurized water reactors use "regular" water (light water) as a primay coolant. That means that "only heavy water" is not a rule as regards reactor design. Reactor design specifies the coolant to be used.

It is used to move heavy objects that can't be lifted by a human. You use water to move the heavy object.

Light water (H2O) and heavy water (D2O)
It can be light water, heavy water, or graphite
Water (H2), or heavy water (D2O). Sometimes, liquid sodium is used.
