Assuming that "wind“ is needed, became 133 results found.
Uranium mining Deadly dangers lurk when mining uranium ore, radioactive radon gas is released and the waste still contains up to 85 percent of the original radioactivity. The wind blows the radiant particles from the spoil heaps in all directions. The rainwater seeps through the dumps and contaminates more and more soil and groundwater... * The...
wahnsinnig große Mengen menschengemachter radioaktiver Strahlung freigesetzt. Niemand kann genau sagen, wie viele radioaktive Partikel bei den mehr als 2.000 Atombombentests erzeugt und durch den Wind verbreitet wurden. Über die bekannt gewordenen schweren Unfälle in Atomreaktoren gibt es von verschiedenen Seiten sehr unterschiedliche Einschätzungen. Heute können wir nur die Fakten und Zahlen...

that the deposits are scattered in the area by erosion. The lake bed is not equally deep in all places. Some of the powdery tailings protrude above the water and are dispersed by the wind, causing them to be lost to extraction and polluting the environment.' Without a seepage seal, the groundwater also becomes radioactively and chemically contaminated. The lake is 12 km from...

Control planned. Does India also use renewable energies? Currently, coal, gas, oil and large-scale hydropower are India's main energy sources; the share of renewable energies with solar and wind turbines is around 12 percent, and nuclear power only accounts for around 3,5 percent. Since nuclear power is expensive, but the prices for generating renewable energy are falling, Hauck hopes that India...

Tourism sector is getting a strong boost. But the money does not help to overcome the hair-raising inequality between black and white, as well as between the black elite and the black majority. How dramatic the situation is is shown by the fact that the average life expectancy in 1990 has fallen from 62 years to 50 years today (1). The international...

a typical traffic jam in the Cape Town metropolitan area, he points out the major problems that would arise during evacuations in the event of a disaster. And: The sun often shines here, the wind blows - why is so little done for alternative energy in South Africa? He had to work through a number of file folders for the PBMR approval process in just 50 days. No doubt;...

that the THTR has been shut down since 1989. However, even after it was decommissioned, incidents occurred; for example, the tritium water leak in 1992. Radioactive substances do not simply disappear overnight: the PAC beads carried by the wind could still be ticking time bombs and be responsible for cancer and leukemia. As is the case in the Elbmarsch...

of these large fuel elements have been destroyed. Since filters were changed and measuring devices were switched off during operation, these small radioactive spheres could have been carried unnoticed by the wind and are still lying around somewhere! In Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein, these tiny particles released have led to numerous state parliament investigative commissions,...

and are again shaking up the nuclear phase-out." And adds: "The nuclear consensus still leaves 15 years until the last nuclear reactor in Germany goes offline to invest in the use of sun, wind and biomass." The "Rheinische Post" summarized on the same day: "The topic (nuclear phase-out, HB) has now finally been removed from taboos." Diligently worked on this removal of taboos...
should actually be inside the hollow spheres. These heavy metal balls are also lying around freely in the gardens. They have diameters of 10 - 50 micrometers, they can easily be carried by the wind or inhaled. These beads were documented using electron microscopy and measured using mass spectrometry using SIMS (ELB5). They actually contain the whole bouquet...
If you build and export high-temperature reactors, there is another problem and potential hazard. Energy. 94 percent of the energy comes from hard coal, only 1,5 percent from sun and wind. By 2013, only five percent will be generated from alternative energy, even though there is enough sun and wind in South Africa. For the future, the government is also relying on...

Not large power plants. What is needed is the massive expansion of renewable energies, combined with much more efficient, decentralized gas power plants that can be flexibly adapted to the changing amounts of energy from sun, wind and biomass. Nuclear power plants currently only cover just under 3 percent of global energy consumption. Given Earth's extremely limited uranium reserves, which at today's...

RWE sells HTR fuel element manufacturer to Advent press review DIDO switched off in Jülich Wind energy in Cape Town New generation of nuclear power plants in England June 18th: Inspection in Gronau Hydrogen research is also nuclear research!
