Isn't heavy water D2O (deuterated) ? H3O(+) is a Hydronium ion?

Wikipedia say Heavy Water is 2H2O and their article on H30 doesn't use the term "heavy water."

Sewage is also known as blackwater. Wastewater from toilets = blackwater. Wastewater from other equipment like showers or sinks = greywater.

Hmm I believe h2o2 Is hydrogen peroxide, not heavy water

Yeah, heavy water is still H2O, but the H isotopes are deuterium. I.e. D2O.
H3O is something different altogether.

Anyone who has ever used an RV or motorhome would think of sewage as blackwater. Greywater would be the term for showers and sinks as noted above. Blackwater should be accepted in my opinion.

Plain water is ⁱH₂O, Heavy water is ²H₂O, (²H or hydrogen-2 is also known as deuterium, D), ³H₂O is very heavy water (with tritium). Combinations such as DHO (semi-heavy water) also exist. H₂O₂ is hydrogen peroxide.
I hope the unicode character used in this message are visible!

Addendum: of course H₃O⁺ is hydroxonium (or hydronium), and OH⁻ is hydroxide (also known as a hydroxyl group in organic chemistry).

Brita also makes water purifiers--I'd love to see that one (the only one I missed) accepted.

That could also be confused with the Mercenary group that made headlines not too long ago.
