What are 4 significant problems with nuclear power plants?
pollutes the air thats all i know sorry
What is product of a nuclear power plant?
Nucler plants create nuclear energy by separaiting atoms
What are some benefits of nuclear power plants?
Reduction in Air Pollution. Nuclear power can also be part of a strategy to address carbon emissions. Nuclear power plants emit no carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, or nitrous oxides.
What are the workers at nuclear power plants called?
I don't think it is much different to those working in conventional power plants, but one additional type of duty is Radiation Health Physics, which is not needed except on nuclear plants
Why aren't nuclear power plants built in deserts?
Nuclear power plants need a source of cooling. Water is the usual source of cooling, and lots of it, making a desert location unrealistic.
What waste problems of nuclear power plants is NOT a problem with a coal-burning power plant?
Radioactive wastes that can last thousands of years
Different ways of transforming energy have different environmental effects what waste problems of nuclear power plants is NOT a problem with a coal-burning power plant?
You don't list the waste problems, so how can I answer? However radioactive waste is not a problem for a coal burning plant
What are some drawbacks with using uranium to produce electricity?
- possible problem with pollution - possible problems with some accidents in nucear fuel plants or in nuclear reactors - nuclear wastes
How are nuclear power plants different from other plants?
The source of the energy is the nuclear reactor, rather than a furnace for burning fossil fuels.
Which is a waste problem of nuclear power that does not occur with coal-burning power plants?
The only waste from a nuclear power plant is spent fuel rods, which can be reprocessed. The waste from a coal fired plant is carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, mercury, ash, and soot.
Nuclear power plants can produce energy more cheaply and with less pollution them plants that use fossil fuels why are there not more nuclear power plants dad plants that burn fossil fuels?
The problem of disposing large amounts of nuclear waste is not resolved.
Why do we not explode a ground level detonation low yield nuclear bomb on the nuclear plants in Japan to stop the continued problems or encasing the plants?
You are just crazy!! This would scatter radioactive contamination over a huge area and contribute absolutely nothing to cleaning up and containing the present problem.
How do you prevent Nuclear Disasters?
High safety measures at the nuclear plants is to be observed if the nuclear disasters is to be prevented. The problems identified at the nuclear plant should be immediately rectified to prevent the nuclear disasters.
Why does a nuclear power plant not produce air pollutants?
There is no burning process going on like in fossil fuelled plants
What is the problems with japan nuclear power plants?
The problems currently being experienced are due to the combination of the earthquake and subsequent tsunami
What do nuclear plants use instead of fossil fuels?
Nuclear plants use fissionable material to generate heat instead of burning fossil fuel for the same purpose. The fissionable fuel is in the core of a nuclear reactor, and this core and the associated elements of the nuclear plant allow us to tap nuclear energy via nuclear fission.
Does Nuclear Power save energy?
Nuclear power plants generate electricity without burning fossil fuels, so do not release CO2, which causes climate change.
