"deuterium transfer takes place from the liquid water to the hydrogen sulfide gas." This could really be expanded. --Phoenix Hacker 03:30, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

It should be more clear. As it is written now there is a loop of H2S gas circling through hot and cold columns, and water going though one and then the other column. There is circulation and a single stream hence no separation and no result.

Likely there are two water streams and a H2S loop connecting them. The H2S transports deuterium from cold to hot (and normal hydrogen tranels the other way).

The deuterium-poor water is discarded. The enriched water is fed to a following stage as teh primary water.
