In 1989 DOE ERAB report stated "Investigations designed to check the reported observations of excess tritium in electrolytic cells are desirable". We are going to scrutinize the anomalous phenomena related to the tritium production before and after 1989. The anomalous tritium production was found in metal deuterides in 18 technical-grade metals and semiconductors, in gas-discharge, in electrolysis, in gas-loading, even in chemical explosions, etc. The experimental evidences are so compelling that the opponents could not deny the existence of the tritium, but attributed it to some fictitious frauds. The selective resonant tunneling theory would be applied to explain this tritium production in condensed matter nuclear science (CMNS). The tritium production has justified the necessity of neutrino detection in metal deuterides.
