The main one is disbursal of its radioactive contents into the environment. The fallout from this has the potential to be much worse than the fallout from nuclear weapons, as the amount of material inside the reactor that can be disbursed is far larger than the fallout that can be generated by any nuclear weapon ever deployed.
