How much uranium is need to power a nuclear power plant for eighteen months?
Depending on: - the type of the nuclear reactor - the electrical power of the nuclear reactor - the type of the nuclear fuel - the enrichment of uranium - the estimated burnup of the nuclear fuel etc.
How much uranium produces nuclear power?
The mass of uranium needed for a nuclear power reactor depend on the type and the power of this reactor. For a medium size reactor - 100 t.
Why Arabs do not have nuclear power?
I guess they have too much oil, and no uranium.
How much of the is powered by uranium?
The majority of nuclear reactors use uranium as nuclear fuel.
What materials are used in nuclear power plants?
uranium, plutonnium, and not much more except chemicals.
What material does a nuclear power station use for energy?
Most nuclear power stations use uranium enriched to 3% uranium-235 isotope. The nuclear power stations in France include some reprocessed plutonium mixed with the enriched uranium. A small number of nuclear power stations were designed with fast neutron breeder reactors and used uranium enriched to as much as 93.7% uranium-235 isotope. As more of the uranium-238 (or thorium-232) in the breeding blanket was transmuted to fissionable plutonium (or uranium) isotopes, the breeding blanket material would be reprocessed and these fissionable isotopes would be used to replace the original spent uranium. But only a small number of such nuclear power stations were built and the system for reprocessing of the breeding blanket material was not set up.
How much uranium is usually in a nuclear bomb?
Cca. 50 kg of highly enriched uranium. Now nuclear bombs use plutonium, not uranium.
How much does a nuclear submarine weigh?
7,636 tons
How much uranium 235 is used in a nuclear reactor?
Depending on the type and the power of the nuclear reactor. An example; a CANDU type reactor of 700 MW need 700 kg uranium-235 and only ca. 500 kg are "burned".
How much Uranium is in the sun?
there is not uranium in the sun. the nuclear fusion is due to hydrogen that fuses to helium
How much uranium does it take to power a city?
For an answer it is necessary to know the number of inhabitants of the city, the industries located in the city, the envisaged type of the nuclear reactor, etc.
Can uranium heat buildings?
indirectly, if a house gets its energy from nuclear power plant, but not in the same way as burning coal or oil- it's much to dangerous to have a little nuclear reactor in the basement.
