exposure of workers to radiation. hope that helps.
fission and fusion
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
Nuclear binding energy is released mostly as heat energy.
Nuclear fusion and fission are both processes that involve releasing energy from the nucleus of an atom. They can both produce large amounts of energy and are used in nuclear power plants.
In terms of energy per atom, nuclear fusion produces more energy than nuclear fission. Fusion reactions involve the combination of lighter atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. Fission reactions, on the other hand, involve the splitting of heavier atomic nuclei into smaller fragments, releasing energy.
Produce heat (energy) from nuclear fission.
fission and fusion
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
A controlled nuclear chain reaction produces heat, driving steam turbines to produce energy.
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
All current nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to produce energy. For more information on fission and power plants, see the related links.
Nuclear physics, fuel enrichment and fabrication, metallurgy, welding, instrumentation, chemistry, radiation measuring, and civil, electrical, and mechanical engineering, to name a few, are areas of technology associated with nuclear energy.

A fission of energy atoms generating nuclear energy that is used to produce electricity.
In nuclear power plants, energy is generated by nuclear fission, which involves splitting atoms of uranium. The heat produced by the fission reactions is used to boil water and produce steam, which then drives turbines connected to generators to produce electricity.
