A method of producing radioisotopes using a heavy water type nuclear power plant is provided. The method includes inserting targets (37) into a heavy water moderator of the heavy water reactor through a guide tube (30) in a port (55) in a reactivity mechanism deck (45) of the heavy water reactor. The heavy water reactor operates to irradiate the target to convert the target into a radioisotope. The method then includes removing the radioisotope from the moderator of the heavy water reactor via the reactivity mechanism deck. A heavy water nuclear reactor is also provided. |
