    To a large extent‚ I agree that the nuclear power is an unsustainable energy resource. Environmentally‚ water for cooling process of the nuclear plants is released into the sea. This causes thermal pollution and reduces water quality. Moreover‚ the radioactive wastes in the nuclear plants will release radioactive substances and contaminate the surrounding areas. Even if the waste is buried underground‚ there may be leakage‚ polluting the underground water and soil. Serious damage is done to the

    Nuclear energy is one of the hottest topics in the fight to a cleaner world. The number of people who believe that nuclear energy is too dangerous and unhealthy for the earth has skyrocketed because of the nuclear accidents that have happened in the past and recently. These protesters may have a lot of evidence and theories about how bad this type of energy can be‚ but the people who have realized that nuclear energy is the way to a cleaner and more “Green” society have proof and facts that overrule

    for a specified stretch of road or drives through a red light (typically at an intersection) then the AES camera will be triggered to capture the image of the vehicle‚ the JPJ will then issue summons to the offenders after verification. The reasons why AES shouldn’t be abolished are listed as following. First of all‚ ever since the implementation of AES cameras in areas where there is a significant accident record‚ the rate of driver speeding and red-light violations have been reducing which means

    Metals and alloys for nuclear energy There are two important ways in the making of nuclear energy: nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Fusion and fission have a different working mechanisms‚ thus other materials are used. In a nuclear reactor fuel rods are bombarded with neutrons causing fission of the fuel. This way energy is released. With this energy water is heated to steam and with the use of heat exchangers and steam turbines electricity is generated. As fuel is usually uranium used‚ but also

    Don’t Support Nuclear Energy These days‚ it seems like everyone is worried about how the world will meet its energy demands when we don’t have oil and natural gas. Scientists and researchers are investigating such power sources as solar energy‚ wind energy‚ and even energy new kind of energy shale gas recources . However‚ there is one energy source that I believe should not be developed anymore. In fact‚ I believe that we should stop using it as soon as possible. Even though it can provide

    Nuclear energy Nuclear energy in scientific terms defined as the inhaustible energy derived from the nucleus of an atom by the process of nucleus break up through nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Nuclear fission is a process where the nucleus of an atom splits and releases radioactive materials such as uranium which are used in many ways. Nuclear fusion is a process s when the two atoms of an element get together and large amount of heat is generated. in this way the nucleus releases tremendous

    to the current energy sources we are using‚ our society is in desperate need of a new source of energy. Nuclear energy can be the answer to our country’s problems. In 1938‚ Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassman conducted an experiment in which they hurdled a neutron at extremely high speeds towards the element uranium. This caused the nucleus of the atom to split‚ and from there neutrons continued to split other neutrons in a process known as fission. A chain reaction of sustained energy release was created

    THE advantages and disadvantages of Nuclear energy Day after day‚ the energy required in the world increases. Fossil fuels have been used for energy since the outset of the last century. The burning of these fossil fuels over the years has caused the earth’s temperature to increase. Some countries are concerned about this problem‚ and tend toward finding alternative power sources. Iran chooses nuclear energy to decrease poison gases‚ but this choice has met with the disapproval of many countries
