| Heavy Water Plant at Tuticorin is a constituent unit of Heavy Water Board, Mumbai under Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India. It employs the ammonia-hydrogen exchange process (mono-thermal). The plant is located at a distance of about 14 km from Tuticorin Railway Station. Work on HWP Tuticorin was commenced in September 1971 and the plant was commissioned in July 1978. |

| Heavy Water Plant at Baroda is the first plant set up in the country for the production of heavy water by employing Monothermal Ammonia-Hydrogen exchange process. This facility also has a Potassium metal plant for supply of Potassium metal for preparing catalyst solution for all Monothermal Ammonia-Hydrogen exchange plants. The plant is located 8 km north from Baroda railway station along the national highway No. 8, adjacent to the Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd. (GSFC). This plant was originally integrated with three stream ammonia plants of M/S GSFC. Plant was receiving synthesis gas from ammonia plants of GSFC and returning the depleted synthesis gas back to GSFC after extraction of deuterium from the gas.
In 1999, M/S GSFC commissioned their new technology based low-pressure Ammonia plant (A4), operating at around 140 kg/cm² pressure, and stopped operation of their old high pressure (640kg/cm²) ammonia plants. Operation of HWP had to be suspended simultaneously due to non-availability of synthesis gas at high pressure. Facing the challenge, HWP is modified to reorient its operation independent of GSFC.
The Ammonia Water Exchange Front-End unit is set up which eliminates dependency of HWP on Ammonia plants of M/S GSFC for its deuterium feed stock. It uses water as the source of deuterium in the process and ammonia works as carrier gas only. Thus the Front-End unit and other necessary changes carried out in the existing process system makes the operation of HWP independent of GSFC. This is the beginning of new phase for production of Heavy Water in India demonstrating independent operation of a Heavy Water Plant from the fertiliser plant. |

| More than 90% of the cumulative world production of heavy water (D20) is by the Hydrogen-sulphide (H2S) water (H20) exchange process, known as the GS process, with the major contribution being from the Canadian plants. Heavy Water Plant at Kota is a solely indigenous effort and is based on the Bithermal H20-H2S exchange process. The plant is located at a distance of 65 KM from Kota Railway Station, adjacent to Rajasthan Atomic Power Plant (RAPP). The Heavy Water Plant is integrated with RAPP for its supply of power and steam. |
