AEOI indigenizes technology of heavy water derivatives
The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) announced that Iran has most recently unlocked the cutting-edge technology of producing heavy water derivatives, expressing readiness to export the technology.
Mohammad Eslami pointed out on Tuesday that the technology in question is one of the most advanced technologies available in the field, so much so that only very few advanced countries currently possess it, IRNA reported.
“We are pursuing the incorporation of laser and biotechnologies into our project on heavy water derivatives for the purposes of producing deuterated drugs, which is one of the most important measures that could be taken in laboratories,” he maintained.
“The AEOI is looking to further develop this technology and export it to eager countries.
