Yes, but there are risks associated with every type of power plant. Its simply a matter of understanding those risks and dealing with them. In the case of nuclear reactors, we design whats known as "defense in depth", so that any hypothetical failure, or sequence of failures, including some improbable failures, can be handled.
In dealing with a nuclear reactor SCRAM stands for Safety Control Rod Activator Mechanism. Nuclear reactors can be quite dangerous.
there are no bad things about the nuclear power reactors
One of the primary functions of a nuclear reactor is to maintain a chain reaction. Also, nuclear reactors are meant to provide a steady flow of neutrons.
Yes, thorium was used as a fertile material in nuclear reactors.
In nuclear reactors, there are over 400 operating power reactors world wide
Nuclear power reactors are potentially dangerous, we have to make them safe by careful design and operation
Nuclear reactors are dangerous because they emit ionizing radiation that damages the body. Nuclear reactors rely on fission so when the atom splits Uranium or Plutonium emits alpha particles, beta particles, x-rays, and gama rays. The most "dangerous" is gamma rays since they can cross though anything but layers of concrete and/lead

Nuclear reactors use nuclear fission.
Nuclear reactors use controlled nuclear fission reactions to generate heat, which is then used to produce steam that drives turbines to generate electricity. The heat is produced in the reactor core where nuclear fuel rods containing uranium or plutonium undergo fission reactions. The reactor's cooling system helps regulate the temperature and prevent overheating.
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
There are over 400 nuclear reactors around the world.
there are no bad things about the nuclear power reactors
France has 56 nuclear reactors in operation. This makes France one of the countries with the highest reliance on nuclear energy in the world.
Nuclear reactors supply approx 20 percent of electricity in the US
Most nuclear reactors are thermal-neutron reactors. A few fast breeder reactors have been built, but not many.
Nuclear reactors are built. Therefore the source is the country that commissioned and built them.
