Nuclear Disasters and Accidents
Introduction:
One of the scariest things about nuclear power is when something goes wrong and an accident occurs. Radiation is released into the environment and people get hurt. Two of the most famous nuclear accidents occurred at the Three Mile Island reactor 2 in the United States and the Chernobyl reactor 4 in the former Soviet Union. In this text we will discuss these two disasters, along with correcting a few common misconceptions about nuclear accidents.
The Myth of a Reactor Explosion:
It is impossible for any PWR or LWR nuclear reactor to explode like an atomic bomb. This is because in order for an uncontrolled chain reaction to occur that is similar to an atom bomb, the uranium fuel must be extremely enriched, much more than the 4%

and thats why the accident occurred. http//library.thinkquest. org/17940/texts/nuclear_disasters/nuclear_disasters.html makes a good points about this.

weebls-stuff forums Speshul interests Debates and Serious Business PDA View Full Version : Nuclear Power Midget 22-11-2005, 10:29 PM Well I'm not going to pretend to know much about nuclear power, mainly because I don't and... well that's about it.
There have been a lot of talks in the news that blair is considering the use of nuclear power to try and cut down on global warming. So is this a good idea? Let's weigh up the pros and cons.
Pros:
- Nuclear reactors can last for up 40 years
- It is the cheapest and cleanest way of producing electricity
- Doesn't pollute the atmosphere/contribute to global warming
- Very reliable, doesn't depend on climate etc
- Fuel cost is very low compared to coal and gas
- The technology that takes care of the waste from the reactor is a known and proven technology
- A large amount of power can be produced by a relatively small station
Cons: - The thought of OMGNUCLEAR scares a lot of people without them knowing the facts - Building nuclear power plants is VERY expensive and can take up to 10 years - Expensive to maintain - Danger of radiation release - Getting rid of a nuclear power station when it's time is up is very difficult - Long-term disposal of nuclear waste is difficult - WAR If a nuclear power station was to be bombed, then oh boy would be in trouble

Pebble bed reactor :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pebble_bed_reactor
The pebble-bed reactor is considered walk-away safe, and that it cannot overheat and burn out like Chernobyl.
However, there's a case in Germany where one such PBR developed problems, one pebble jammed a feeder tube, and released radiation into the environment when the operator broke it trying to remove it.
Makes one wonder how safe nuclear power really is.
What do you guys think? Skeptik 21-08-2007, 10:19 PM The PBR has not been fully tested. The German one was not even a production one I believe. So long as Nuclear Energy companies try to downplay/cover up accidents and incidents they will not be fully trusted by the public. 21-08-2007, 10:27 PM

Nuclear War I and Other Major Nuclear Disasters of the 20th Century
Nuclear War 1 and Other Major Nuclear Disasters of the 20th Century looks closely at the impact of nuclear war. Nuclear Afternoon: True Stories of Atomic Disasters
Nuclear Afternoon is a chilling chronicle of major nuclear incidents around the globe such as Three Mile Island and Chernobyl, spanning more than 60 years. Our atomic history spans more than sixty years and most of it isn't pretty. In March 1958 a US Air Force B-47 accidentally dropped an atomic bomb on the town of Mars Bluff. In South Carolina in January 1978, the Russian spy satellite, Cosmos 954, carrying a nuclear reactor, failed to attain orbit and fell back to Earth. In March 1979, a series of mishaps caused a nuclear reactor on Three Mile Island to overheat. In April 1986, The Russian Chernobyl-4 reactor exploded, releasing radioactive materials throughout the area.
Fourteen incidents, or more appropriately accidents, are recounted in this book. With compelling detail and eyewitness testimony, Burleson illustrates the human drama and the nuclear problem, and he discusses just how much effort it takes to right the world when an accident occurs. Today, with gas prices skyrocketing, nuclear power is being billed as the savior to our energy crisis. In the United States, thirteen new reactors have been proposed and, worldwide, sixty-five new reactors are on order. This book calls our attention to the awe-inspiring power of nuclear energy when something goes wrong and outlines what individuals and nations must do to limit the damage from disasters that surely will occur. These are cautionary tales for us all.

for everyone Nuclear accidents: The official story on the two major accidents which are most widely know read as if there is just nothing to worry about. http://library.thinkquest.org/17940/texts/nuclear_disasters/nuclear_disasters.html I read about 3 Mile Island and Chernobyl and I thought all my worries should be around nuclear power plants. But did you know there are nearly two thousand "nuclear accidents" per year. It's estimated that there are at least 50 nuclear weapons lying on the ocean floor left over from the US-Soviet conflict from the end of WWII to the fall of the Berlin Wall. Below is the most comprehensive and meaningful list of nuclear accidents I could find:
