    Uranium waste train from Gronau, which will again transport around 600 t of depleted uranium hexafluoride (UF6). UF6 is not only radioactive, but also very toxic because deadly hydrofluoric acid is formed when it comes into contact with humidity. In previous transports, the uranium trains passed through Münster's main train station between 12 and 13.30 p.m. PS: We apologize if you...

  10. Entangled in the network of European uranium transports

    If an individual cylinder were to leak due to a crack in the wall or damage to the filler valve, up to 12,5 tonnes of uranium hexafluoride could be released, which would then react chemically with the humidity. This produces solid uranyl fluoride (UO2F2), which accumulates on the ground at the accident site, and hydrofluoric acid. This corrosive and toxic acid would be taken orally (via...
