NUCLEAR POWER CANNOT BE ABA

Conclusion: The big advantage


of using nuclear reactions such as fission is that 1 fission produces 100 million times more energy then burning a carbon atom. Technology advances means nuclear reactors are simpler this means that cooling of reactors can continue regardless of electricity supply.

Method: The fissionable isotope of


uranium known as uranium-235 is the fuel used in most nuclear reactors. Fission takes place inside the reactor of a nuclear power plant. At the centre of the reactor is the core, which contains the uranium fuel.

Results: The uranium fuel


formed into ceramic pellets the size of a fingertip produced the same amount of energy as 570L of oil. The only emissions produced generating nuclear power was water vapour.

Introduction: Concerns about


climate change and air pollution, as well as growing demand for electricity, have led to the reconsideration of nuclear power, which emits little carbon dioxide and has built up an impressive safety and reliability record. The uranium fuel is formed into ceramic pellets.

Fission generates heat in a reactor used to boil water into steam. The steam turns huge turbine blades. As they turn, they drive generators that Aim: To successfully produce make electricity. Afterward, the steam and implement Nuclear power as is changed back into water and cooled a major source of energy in the in a cooling tower. The water can be world. used again and again.
