  2. THTR Circular No. 82 April 03

    began in 1990. Leukemia commissions in Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony looked for the causes. They were able to rule out all possible causes except one - radioactive radiation. (...) For two years, the people involved in the uncovering have received significant support. A working group led by Professor Arthur Scharmann from the University of Giessen was drawn to the absurd...

  3. The incident at the THTR in May 1986 in 'Spiegel'

    The employees of the alternative Darmstadt Öko-Institut also received a hint. At the beginning of May, its experts determined during measurements near the reactor that three quarters of the radiation - a total of 35000 becquerels per square meter - came from the THTR itself, and only the rest came from Chernobyl winds. When Minister Jochimsen asked the operators at midday on May 7th,...

  4. 1988 - Lothar Hahn on the subject of proliferation in pebble bed reactors

    Heavy water reactor are qualitatively comparable. With regard to the production of tritium for use in bombs, the HTR is of particular military importance. (Release of atomic radiation since the beginning of the 1940s: see INES - The international assessment scale and the list of worldwide nuclear accidents) - The map of the nuclear world - From uranium mining and processing,...

  5. 1986 - Lothar Hahn on the subject of safety at HTR

    To cancel a major attempt with the THTR-300. The conclusion can already be drawn today that the technology of the pebble bed reactor has failed.

    Siemens can make money with the competing gas power plant project. And if the population near the Namibian uranium mines or the planned PBMR should become seriously ill due to radioactive radiation, then we can be sure that Siemens will want to supply expensive medical equipment for the medical treatment of these poor people! South Africa's focus on...

  7. THTR Newsletter No. 95 December 2004

    Everything is done here: "22 systems are still in operation in the 'safe containment', which are used exclusively for control purposes. 180 values ​​are constantly monitored, status reports are recorded: radiation, moisture, ventilation. Reisch and Thomas have to carry out 150 additional tests every year, many only when accompanied by the TÜV. 'Every six years, for example, we have to...

    In the future, everything from private nursing homes to pharmaceutical companies is being bought up. From the cause (radioactive radiation) to the treatment of the effect (radiation sickness), everything can be controlled by one long hand. And many Hopefully people will see the light. Horst Blume press review...

  9. Reactor failure THTR - communication

    could no longer be denied, the release of radioactivity into the environment was first denied, then admitted 'very cautiously' and finally they argued about the amount of radiation that had escaped, because the measuring device had been switched off and so there was no precise data . Only little by little did the truth come to light, always just as much as could no longer be denied...

  10. Reactor bankruptcy nuclear power plant THTR 300 - Thorium high-temperature reactor in Hamm Uentrop

    See: History#Arguments against the nuclear industry -... the central problem with the nuclear industry and the entire uranium industry is the systematic trivialization of radioactive radiation. The nuclear friends, radiant as ever, claim to have everything under control - critics point to unmanageably long periods of time and unforeseeable, long-term consequences and risks of...

  11. History, what was it like back then with the THTR 300 thorium high-temperature reactor in Hamm-Uentrop

    Operating errors shown. It was only a few weeks later that the HKG slowly came around to the fact that it had probably been a reportable incident, including the release of significant amounts of radiation, which had - accidentally - not been reported. Addendum 2016 30 years later, criminal prosecution had now become impossible due to the statute of limitations, claimed...
