re: “A clear determination of the aerosol activity release on May 4, 5 is not possible.” On the very day of the incident, the operators had switched off the measuring device several times for hours in order to supposedly reset the clock. What a coincidence! The enormous audacity of the operators in this "measurement strip scandal" agitated people in the Hammer for months in 1986...

It has now been announced that...
Social Affairs Minister Friedhelm Farthmann (SPD) noted that “the limit value of moisture in the primary coolant, which if exceeded the reactor is automatically switched off via a safety circuit, has been adjusted to higher values in the current year”. Approval for this change was not obtained. Federal Interior Minister Gerhart Baum (FDP) was also informed about the...

Johannes Rau on the nuclear phase-out. But he emphasized that the THTR is the safest of all nuclear power plants and that is why it must be shut down as the very last thing in Germany. Even after the shutdown, efforts to bring the HTR line back to life did not diminish. In 2001, SPD member Fritz Fahrenholt promoted being a "member of the Council for Sustainable...

and destroyed radioactive fuel balls. Since the operators of the reactor had switched off the recording devices for monitoring the release of radioactivity at exactly this time, they specifically made it impossible to find measurable evidence of ball rupture and contamination of the environment from the exhaust chimney.

They would be embarrassed if they had to admit that an unsafe reactor had been operating for more than 10 years, after all, it is their job to prevent exactly that. Since the reactor was supposed to be shut down at the end of 1988 anyway, the authorities probably thought: 'Don't worry about it.' The bad thing about it: For all supporters of this unsafe technology, the signal was: There were no problems...

Top of page On July 18, 2009, an advance report on Spiegel-Online caused a stir and widespread media coverage from the Aachener Zeitung to WDR: "The operation of the research reactor in Jülich, which was shut down in 1988, may have political repercussions. Like SPIEGEL in its most recent issue reports, the Federal Environment Ministry is investigating the question of whether operators...

The fact that the filter systems and measuring devices were switched off during the accident in 1986 caused thousands of people to block access to the plant, which even the writer Umberto Eco wrote about in his daily newspaper in distant Italy.

Message: “I consider the thorium high-temperature reactor to be a future-oriented technology. This will be discussed further.'

operated reactors is important. The only two pebble bed reactors in the world are in Hamm and Jülich. Like the Hammer VEW power plant, the Jülich research reactor has been shut down since 1988 and 1989. Why “reactor safety research” is being carried out in Jülich for a type of reactor that has been decommissioned in Germany? The research in Jülich is about safety-related...
than intended. There was a lot of radioactive ball fragments and graphite dust that had to be vacuumed away. During the accident in May 1986, the measuring devices were switched off during this time and one of the biggest scandals in German nuclear power plant history occurred. The radioactive “release rate” could only be roughly “estimated” with the THTR. The operators of the THTR stated that...
Negotiations between Innotec and the SU successfully concluded. On April 5, 1987, a Soviet delegation visited the THTR in Hamm-Uentrop, which, significantly, had just been switched off because the licensing authority had ordered another inspection due to defective lines. The WA wrote on April 06.04.1987, XNUMX: "The Soviet delegation showed itself particularly...

What happened in the reactor building in Hamm-Uentrop at the beginning of May is reminiscent of Charlie Chaplin's slapstick scenes in "Modern Times": A man struggles with the pitfalls of technology and loses. But what...
