IRNA - Deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization (IAEO), Ali Asghar Zarean said here on Saturday that Tehran is evaluating the European states’ requests for buying heavy water from the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Zarean made the remarks on the sidelines of Iran’s 37th nuclear expert exhibition in Tehran.

After Iran sold 70 tons of its heavy water to Russia and US, he said, some European countries have voiced their willingness to buy Iran’ heavy water.

Zarean said that Iran would unveil a new domestically-manufactured centrifuge which could be utilized in oil industry on April 17, 2017.

He said the Islamic Republic of Iran has entered into the world nuclear club and in addition to production and sales of heavy water with a high-level purity, can buy a large quantity of enriched uranium.
