Is A Coal Power Station Better Than A Nuclear Power Station?
yes a coal is nature nuclear uses lots of power Process for production of power from coal is very inefficient , More over it produces lot of carbon dioxide in to atmosphere (harmful green house gas). While Process for production of power from Nuclear plant is very good when compared with coal power. But initial and maintenance cost is very high. Unit cost for coal power is more economical than nuclear power. So economically coal power station is better. But on the basis of efficiency Nuclear power stations are good. When the deaths caused by the two types of mining are considered, coal fired systems have a much higher overall death rate. But the coal mining industry is improving this.
Is coal or nuclear renewable?
Neither coal nor nuclear power are considered renewable, as there are only finite amounts of coal and uranium on Earth.
Is coal a nuclear or motion energy?
Coal is a fossil fuel, which possesses potential chemical energy. It is not nuclear or kinetic
Which type of power station uses chemical energy to generate electricity coal fired or nuclear?
A coal-fired power station uses chemical energy from burning coal to generate electricity. A nuclear power station uses nuclear reactions to generate electricity.
Why is nuclear bad?
It is not. The issue is one of fear. People tend to fear the unknown and they do not understand nuclear power. A better question would be why do people think coal is less dangerous than nuclear power? We do realize that coal will kill so many miners each year and pollute the environment. We also know that coal will put mercury into the air. Nuclear is an unknown. There is no problem with environmental issues until we have a accident at an unknown time. This damage will also be unknown. Some studies have claimed we could have a nuclear accident like Chernobyl every ten years and be better for the environment than coal and the known issues there. While very debatable, it does present the flip side to the issue that is often ignored in favor of the anti nuclear hype.
Compare and contrast coal and nuclear power plant?
Coal and nuclear power plants are both used to generate electricity, but they differ in terms of energy source and environmental impact. Coal power plants burn coal to produce heat, while nuclear power plants use nuclear reactions to generate heat. Nuclear power plants produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal plants, but they create radioactive waste that needs to be carefully stored. Coal power plants are cheaper to build and operate, but they contribute to air pollution and climate change.
Which is not a source of nuclear waste?
Coal, oil.....
What produces cheaper electricity- a coal burning station or a nuclear power station?
coal
What percent of nuclear powerplants make energy in the US by coal?
Zero percent of nuclear power plants make energy by coal, US or otherwise.
Is nuclear waste radioactive?
is coal ash, clinker, and smoke hot when it leaves to coal plant/
Is coal a fossil fuel or a nuclear fuel?
Fossil
What is better coal or uranium and why?
Uranium is generally considered better than coal as a fuel source for electricity generation because it produces less greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy produced and has a higher energy density. However, uranium mining and nuclear power generation come with their own set of environmental and safety concerns, such as radioactive waste disposal and the risk of nuclear accidents.
