Nuclear Power Accidents Wikipedia de Kernkraftwerk Chapelcross Im Mai 1967 kam es zu einer partiellen Kernschmelze im Block 2. Ursache war ein Versuchsbrennstab, in dem ein Graphitpartikel die Kühlung verstopfte. Der Kern wurde erneuert und 1969 wieder in Betrieb genommen. Im Jahr 2001 gab es einen Zwischenfall, als Reaktor 3 mit neuem Brennstoff versorgt wurde... Wikipedia en Nuclear power...

Go to the net. The location of the first nuclear power plant, which will have an output of more than one gigawatt, is planned on the Baltic Sea near the town of Choczewo. Here, seawater will be used to cool the reactor. Commissioning is planned for 2033. The construction is being carried out with the help of the US company Westinghouse, which won the official Polish construction contract in October 2022...

In recent summers, half of the French nuclear power plant fleet was shut down due to technical defects, inspections, repairs, or because the rivers did not carry enough water to cool the reactors. Some EU member states have announced plans to expand nuclear energy. Belgium plans to postpone the final stage of the agreed exit in response to the...

THTR Circular No. 156, December 2023
against this land grab has become known beyond Morocco. Around 3000 hectares of land was stolen from the Amazigh communities in 2016 to build a solar power plant in Ouarzazate. In this dry area, an immense amount of water is also used to cool and flush the solar panels. This will worsen the consequences of climate change in Morocco. European governments and...

Stops and continues loading. Due to overheating and an increase in radioactivity, an alarm was triggered and the emergency shutdown was initiated. Some fuel elements that had just been loaded melted. Since the cooling system was still functioning at a quarter of normal levels, there was no major catastrophe. Only small amounts of radioactivity escaped from the building.

Heat is generated, which is why these tanks need to be constantly cooled. After the cooling lines of one of these 1956 m³ tanks became leaky in the course of 250 and the cooling was therefore switched off, the contents of this tank began to dry out. Triggered by a spark from an internal measuring device, the nitrate salts contained exploded and released large amounts of...

Some shutdown rods had unintentionally fallen into the core. According to the CSN supervisory authority, this led to a pressure drop in the reactor circuit and thus to the triggering of emergency cooling. The subsequent pressure build-up also led to reactor safety valves responding and slightly contaminated cooling water flowing out into the containment sump. An internal...

she? Uwe Ahrens: These batteries have a number of significant advantages in production and use. On the one hand, the temperature-independent use should be mentioned. Without external cooling or heating, the battery can be used in a range between -20 °C to +60 °C without any voltage losses. This not only expands the geographical area of application, but...
