What are used as coolants in nuclear power stations?
water
How much coolants are used in nuclear power stations?
A lot
What is the main chemical pollutant released by power plants and industries?
Carbon dioxide (but not from nuclear plants)
Why are coolants used in nuclear power industries?
To transfer the heat produced in the fuel to the steam raising units.
Is nuclear burned?
Nuclear energy as obtained in nuclear reactor power plants comes from the fission or splitting of the nuclei of uranium and plutonium. It is not a chemical burning process and does not need any other elements to make it happen.
What has the author R R Fullwood written?

How are nuclear power plants?
by nuclear power ¬.¬
What are the application of nuclear fission?
1. Nuclear power plants 2. Nuclear weaponsNuclear power plants
Is nuclear power explosive?
Nuclear power plants use controlled nuclear reactions to generate electricity and are not explosive in the same way as nuclear weapons or chemical explosives. While accidents at nuclear power plants can release harmful radiation, the likelihood of a nuclear explosion is extremely low due to safety measures in place.
Why doesn't Britain have any nuclear power plants?
Britain does have nuclear power plants.
What do coolants do in nuclear power stations?
The coolants prevent overheating caused by the uranium rods. The process by which nuclear plants work is through the heating of water, which turns into steam and drives the shaft, which in turn creates current. Without coolant the rods would overheat and cause an explosion (like the one seen in Japan, or Chernobyl), thus creating a danger of radiation and causing great danger to the human population.
How are nuclear power plants different from other power plants?
WHY
