Uranium is used moreso because it is in fact NOT a fossil fuel. It is a heavy metal mined from an ore, and it's energy process is call nuclear fission.

List four benefits of using fossil fuels in thermal power stations?
There are several benefits of using fossil fuels as compared to other forms of fuel. Some benefits are that fossil fuels are readily available in large quantity and are easy to process. Other benefits are that fossil fuels produce more energy and are cheaper.
Why geo thermal should replace fossil fuels?
As fossil fuels are depleting day by day, we need a alternative to it.We that is why need to have other source of fuel.Geo thermal is that is why used now and it should replace fossil fuels.
Why is oil called fossil fuels?
Oil is formed by the decomposition of fossilized plant and animal remains. This is why it is referred to as a fossil fuel. Other fossil fuels include coal and natural gas.
What are energy sources other than fossil fuels?
solor energy
How can we minimize use of fossil fuels?
There are many other alternatives to using our fossil fuels, get online silly! Google things like wind, solar energy, and water energy....
What determines dependency on uranium?
The lack of fossil fuels (for energy) and the intention to destroy other countries (for nuclear weapons of imperialists).
What are two examples of non-renewable material resources?
Uranium and fossil fuels - or if you like to be clever - fissile fuels and fossil fuels... On the human time scale, fossil fuels are not being replenished. We can manufacture the same chemicals that are found in fossil fuels but we can't create new oil oil, coal and natural gas fields within our lifetimes - or for that matter within our 10,000 times great-grandchildren's lifetimes. Once Uranium has been used (in a fission reactor) it is converted to isotopes of other elements and is not replenished by natural processes.

What are the other options can be used instead of oils?
Some alternatives to oils in cooking/baking include using applesauce, mashed banana, Greek yogurt, or pureed avocado as a substitute for moisture. In some cases, you can also use broth or water for cooking certain dishes instead of oil.
Which of the following is not a fossil fuel coal natural gas uranium or oil?
Uranium. The other three (coal, natural gas, and oil) are all fossil fuels, formed in similar ways from organic material compressed beneath the surface. A+ solar energy
What are reactor and uranium are used in the production of?
A nuclear reactor is a facility which produce electricity and heat from the fission of uranium or plutonium.The energy released by fission of uranium-235 (or other isotopes) is immense compared to the energy content of fossil fuels.
Does electricity use fossil fuels?
There are many sources of energy that can be converted to electric energy. In many countries, most electric energy is produced by fossil fuels -- mostly coal, some natural gas, etc. However, in a few countries such as France and Belgium, most electric energy is produced from something other than fossil fuels. What can you use instead of fossil fuels?
Do they burn fossil fuels in Iraq?
Yes. Fossil Fuels are used worldwide. Iraq is an exporter of oil, but an importer of gasoline. Other fossil fuels are used as well.
How do fossil fuels turn into natural gas?
Natural gas is a fossil fuel. Other fossil fuels do not "turn into" natural gas.
Are fossil fuels alternative energy?
No. Alternative energy means energy sources other than fossil fuels.
