What else can I help you with?
How much waste does nuclear fusion produce?
Nuclear fusion produces very little waste compared to nuclear fission. The waste produced by nuclear fusion is mainly low-level radioactive material, which is easier to manage and has a shorter lifespan.
Why isn't it safe to jump in water that's contaminated with nuclear waste material?
The reason it isn't safe to jump in water that is contaminated with nuclear waste material is because it can make you sick or even kill you.
How long does it take for nuclear waste to decay completely?
Nuclear waste can take thousands to millions of years to decay completely, depending on the type of radioactive material.
What waste products come from power stations?
Radioactive waste is a waste product containing radioactive material. It is usually the product of a nuclear process such as nuclear fission, though industries not directly connected to the nuclear power industry may also produce radioactive waste.
Which material has become the biggest waste problem?
Nuclear waste. Other than that probably plastic because it is not biodegradable.
Can v use lasers in destroying nuclear waste?
No, lasers would not cause nuclear changes, they would only melt or vaporise material which is not what is wanted. The nuclear properties of the waste would remain the same.
What is a method of safe handing hazardous waste?
It depends on the waste material. Methods appropriate for chemical hazards would not be so for nuclear waste.
What is the chemistry in the disposal of nuclear waste?
The disposal of nuclear waste typically involves encapsulating the waste in materials like glass or ceramic to prevent the release of radioactive materials. This process is aimed at minimizing the long-term impact of radioactive waste on the environment and human health. Specialized facilities, such as deep geological repositories, are used for the final disposal of nuclear waste.
Is e waste worse than nuclear waste?
nuclear waste is worst
What waste is produced from nuclear power stations?
nuclear waste
Is there nuclear waste in space?
Yes, there is nuclear waste in space.
What is the purpose for nuclear waste?
Nuclear waste is an unfortunate by-product of the process of nuclear fission for the purpose of energy production. The spent fuel rods are "safely" stored and sequestered, but will remain dangerous for thousands of years. As far as I know, there is no "purpose" for nuclear waste, other than to convince people that they do not want a power plant in their backyard. The theoretically possible process of nuclear fusion (which is how the sun works) would produce less radioactive material and waste.
