    more to do with the nuclear industry?? -- Not even close! The nuclear legacy poses dangers in the middle of the Ruhr area, even in residential areas. Not only the 152.000 radioactive fuel elements from the Mini-THTR in Jülich, but also light and medium radioactive material from Duisburg will be brought to the interim storage facility in Ahaus in the future. Hardly anyone knows the GNS...

    If this obscure sect has preferential access to highly security-relevant sectors, that is definitely problematic. After all, the radioactive PBMR fuel balls were manufactured in the South African Pelindaba nuclear factory in 2006, when there was a sensational attack on the five "apartheid atomic bombs" stored there (see THTR-RB No. 118)....

The Certificate News writes in its newsletter 1/2009: “Hermann Josef Werhahn (Adenauer's son-in-law) has supported the reactor technology with spherical fuel elements as a consultant from the beginning.” It was already obvious last year that the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) in South Africa was not making any real progress and that the problems...

    Also called the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) in South Africa, it will not be built in Koeberg near Cape Town, although the spherical fuel element factory in Pelindaba, which is necessary for THTR operation and was built with German help, has already produced the nuclear fuel. This emerges from the magazine “Nucleonics Week” from February 5, 2009. The financially distressed PBMR company...

    on the demolition squad. The NRW Ministry for Economic Affairs, Small Business and Technology confirmed to BI Environmental Protection in a letter on August 28, 1992 that 17.000 fuel elements in the THTR were damaged at that time and that a further 5.000 were to be expected during the reactor discharge (2). A single fuel element contains tens of thousands of highly radioactive...

    be particularly cost-effective? This effect should also be achieved by the fact that the pebble bed reactors have no containment (safety container) because the graphite-coated spherical fuel elements are trusted to retain the radioactivity. If air enters the primary helium cycle, it could cause a graphite fire with catastrophic radioactive releases. At...

The chairman of the Ahaus citizens' initiative, Heiner Möllers, also spoke at the rally and reported on the situation in Hamm's "nuclear sister city", where the THTR's fuel elements have been temporarily stored in a hall for 13 years.

    Hardly anyone has been interested in the secret nuclear transport from Pierrelatte in France to the German uranium enrichment plant in Gronau. The nuclear waste from spent fuel apparently seems to excite people more than the transportation of uranium hexafluoride, which is used to make new fuel rods. Anti-nuclear initiatives in the Ruhr area and Münsterland now want...

    two years are required to examine the documents. Construction could therefore begin in 2010 at the earliest. A spokesman for the PBMR company confirmed that loading with the radioactive spherical fuel elements can only take place four years after construction of the reactor plant began. This further raises the question of whether the companies Uhde from Dortmund and SGL Carbon from Wiesbaden are involved in the production of...

    Of course, the companies mentioned do not spend the 3,5 million euros completely selflessly.
