Radioactive pollution occurs when a nuclear plant has a meltdown. Radioactive particles that are exposed to living cells will likely cause cancer in people and animals. Furthermore, it can destroy crops and cause them to mutate.
Most radioactive waste is sealed in special containers, and buried underground. Medical waste that may be radioactive is taken to landfills.
technetium-99 need to be made in a reactor as so this all cost money to do it. by saying that its main disadvantages are high costs and generation of large quantities of highly radioactive waste.
Yes, the process of fission produces radioactive waste.
Robert E. Berlin has written: 'Radioactive waste management' -- subject(s): Radioactive waste disposal, Radioactive waste sites
radioactive waste go somewhere probally in a labratory
Nuclear Energy produces radioactive waste because if there isnt any sign of nuclear waste/energy in the sullotion/object then it wouldnt be counted as 'Radioactive'.
Radioactive waste is nearly always a mixture but it is possible to be a pure substance.
Yes, fusion does not create long-lived radioactive waste like fission does.
Radioactive hazardous waste gives off radiation. This includes materials such as spent nuclear fuel, radioactive medical waste, and contaminated laboratory equipment. Proper handling and disposal of radioactive waste is crucial to protect human health and the environment.
No. The products of nuclear fusion are not radioactive.
What type of reaction produces the most dangerous radioactive waste?
Yes, fusion does not produce long-lived radioactive waste like nuclear fission.
