Did people melt in the chernobyl?
No, nothing happened like melting of people in Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident.
Where does nuclear waste go from a nuclear submarine?
In the United States, when a nuclear submarine has "run out of" nuclear fuel for its reactor (this takes many years), the reactor may be opened, and the spent fuel sent for reprocessing at the Naval Reactors facility at the Idaho National Laboratory. The reactor's core may then be refueled. This process can take some time, and handling the spent fuel is dangerous and requires complex procedures to prevent contamination. If the submarine is to be overhauled, or retired, the fuel is removed for reprocessing, and the reactor compartment is cut out of the submarine, sealed, and moved for disposal to the Department of Energy's Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington State, where they are kept in dry storage. The submarine may be welded back together, or the sections floated, until a new compartment and reactor are installed, or the vessel is cut up for scrap. Low level radioactive waste may be handled in other ways.
Is silver used in the operation of nuclear power plants?
No, Enriched Uranium-235 is used in a nuclear reactor as the fuel in the fuel rods and boron is used in the control rods.
Advantages and disadvantages of nuclear reactor?
One of the advantages of the nuclear reactors is that they do not produce smoke particles that pollute the environment and therefore lead to the acidic rainfall. The other advantage is that it is easier to control the output of a nuclear reactor to fit a given need. One of the disadvantage of the nuclear reactors is that the disposal of the nuclear waste is very expensive.
In which year did the explosion at Chernobyl nuclear reactor occur?
1986, the same year as the Challenger Space Shuttle explosion.
What is the Japanese Nuclear Reactor?
A Nuclear Reactor.
What is nuclear reactor kinetics?
Nuclear reactor kinetics is the branch of reactor engineering and reactor physics and control that deals with long term time changes in reactor fuel and nuclear reactors.
Does South Africa has a nuclear reactor?
yes, south Africa has a nuclear reactor.
Is the sun a nuclear fusion reactor?
Yes, the sun is a nuclear fusion reactor.
What is the difference between nuclear reactor and nuclearpower plant?
a nuclear reactor converts binding energy into heat. a nuclear power plant uses a nuclear reactor to generate electricity.
What is the function of a nuclear reactor of a nuclear plant?
simply, the nuclear reactor is the source of heat (or steam) for the nuclear power plant.
Do Breeder reactor and nuclear reactor have similarities?
A breeder reactor is one type of nuclear reactor, but not a type that is in general commercial use at the present time
Block diagram of a nuclear power station?
The heart of a nuclear power plant is the nuclear reactor.
When and where was last nuclear reactor built?
The last nuclear reactor has not been built yet.
What is the name of the first Indian nuclear reactor?
The first Indian nuclear reactor's name is APSARA.
What starts the nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor?
The nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor is started by the splitting of uranium atoms, a process known as nuclear fission.
What part of the reactor contains nuclear fuel?
The nuclear fuel is typically contained in the reactor core, which is a central part of the nuclear reactor where the fission reaction takes place. The fuel rods, which contain the nuclear fuel pellets, are inserted into the reactor core during operation.
