CANDU replaces this "light" water with heavy water, whose extra neutron eliminates the absorption and results in a better neutron economy.
Heavy water's extra neutron decreases its ability to absorb excess neutrons, resulting in a better neutron economy. CANDU replaces this "light" water with heavy water.
