nuclear plants need to cool of the reactors. The water gets hot past evaporating temperatures but because it is inside a chamber it does not. When that water is released into a stream or lake it makes it evaporate and kills the fish and other marine animals because of the heat.
What else can I help you with?
How did the radiation leak in japan ocurr?
Due to a nuclear power plant.
What is atomic pollution?
The pollution caused by the emission of harmful radiation from radio active elements which causes harm to the atmosphere and living being even trees is called atomic pollution is usually caused by nuclear waste (incompletely used uranium) of nuclear power plant.
What is the definition of nuclear pollution?
nuclear pollution is the type of pollution caused due to the release of radioactive substances in the environment
How many people have died due to accidents and pollution from nuclear power plants compared to how many have died due to accidents and pollution from coal power plants?
There technically is no "pollution" from nuclear power, the only by product is steam. The transport and storage of spent nuclear fuel is extremely secure and safe. The only time we are in danger of nuclear radiation are if the reactor vessels that house the nuclear rods are damaged or melt....which is extremely rare and only happens with a massive failure in the chain of events that govern and sustain the supply (in theory, a deliberate attack on a power plant would also cause a spill, too. Yet, so far, that hasn't happened). In the end, thousands of people die every year from the burning of fossil fuels, where as virtually nobody dies from the use of nuclear power. Over 85 of France's power usage comes from nuclear power, after all.
Air pollution due to thermal power plant?
yes thermal power plants cause air pollution by the release of CO , SO2 , NO2 and SPM...
What was the temperature of the chernobyl nuclear power plant meltdown?
During the Chernobyl nuclear power plant meltdown, temperatures reached up to 4000 degrees Celsius in the reactor core due to the uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction.
How do you power a meltdown nuclear power plant?
The meltdown probably occurs due to loss of power, so the question does not make sense
How many power plants can be replaced by a nuclear power plant?
It varies depending on the capacity of each power plant, but generally speaking, one nuclear power plant can replace multiple coal-fired power plants due to the higher energy output of nuclear energy.
Which nuclear power plant in the US was condemned?
Due to an accident that began at 4 a.m. on Wednesday, March 28, 1979, Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant was Condemned and permanently shut down.
What causes the nuclear power plant to change temperature?
The nuclear power plant changes temperature mainly due to the heat generated from nuclear fission reactions in the reactor core. This heat is used to produce steam that drives turbines connected to generators to produce electricity. Factors such as the rate of nuclear reactions, coolant flow rate, and environmental conditions can also impact the temperature of the nuclear power plant.
Why was the nuclear power plant in bataan suspended?
The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant was suspended in the 1980s due to safety concerns, high construction costs, and a shift in government policy away from nuclear power following the Chernobyl disaster. The plant was never operational and remains mothballed.
What are the effects of power plant?
There are varied effects of power plant. This will provide the necessary energy required in most industrial, commercial and residential activities but also affects the environment negatively due to pollution.
