Why is uranium not a fuel like the fossil fuels?
Uranium is a fuel. It is not like a fossil fuel in that it is not consumed by burning (rapid oxidation) to produce heat.Uranium is consumed by its radioactive decay. This process releases heat which is used, just like a fossil fuel, to make steam to run power plants. It is consumed much more slowly than is fossil fuels, and it does not release carbon dioxide, sulfur oxides and other gases to the atmosphere when it is consumed. It does create an ash, the spent fuel. Spent uranium fuel does not fly into the air the way fossil fuel ash might if not controlled, but it does have to be disposed of. - Since spent uranium fuel is radioactive, making disposal more difficult.
