What is fuel for nuclear power stations?
uranium jay from sjv
Is it true that coal and natural gas are the main fossil fuels used in nuclear power stations?
Fossil fuels are not used in nuclear power stations. Nuclear fuel is used (uranium)
Why is plutonium in a nuclear power sation?
Plutonium is used in nuclear power stations as a fuel in some types of reactors, like fast breeder reactors. It can undergo fission to produce energy. Additionally, plutonium can be created as a byproduct in nuclear reactors, which can then be reprocessed and reused as fuel.
Are nuclear power stations more efficient than coal power stations?
Yes, nuclear power stations are generally more efficient than coal power stations, as they can generate more electricity with the same amount of fuel. Nuclear power produces less waste and greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal power.
Where nuclear reaction occur?
In the nucleus of the fuel material, such as uranium-235
What is used in atomic bombs?
Uranium which is a fuel is used in atomic bombs and in nuclear power stations.
What type of power stations do not use chemical energy?
Fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric power stations and nuclear power stations.
Why nuclear power stations are not renewable?
The nuclear fuel is not renewable, it is obtained by mining and we can't make it from anything else that occurs in nature.
What does nuclear stations use for and element for fuel?
Nuclear stations use uranium-235 as the primary fuel element for generating nuclear power. Uranium-235 undergoes fission reactions in a controlled manner to produce heat energy that is then used to generate electricity through turbines.
What do nuclear power stations use for fuel?
Nuclear power stations use uranium as fuel, specifically in the form of enriched uranium-235. The fission of uranium atoms in a controlled chain reaction generates heat, which is used to produce steam that drives turbines to generate electricity.
What do nuclear power stations use as fuel?
Predominantly enriched uranium, but some reactors can use natural uranium.
What is the source of nuclear power station?
They supply the electricity companies who supply your house or business
