and is the best bet for reaching a large group (although you can only speak with one person for more than 40 minutes with the free plan).

600 tonnes of spent fuel is produced by the reactors that supply the United States with 20 percent of its electricity.These consist of rectangular bundles of zirconium rods stuffed with fuel pellets of enriched uranium 235 or plutonium.

Transporting this fuel is a serious and delicate operation because it not only involves containing the fuel rods in line with the strict regulations of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).The casks are forged out of solid steel with heavily gasketed steel hatches held on by specially reinforced pins that can withstand 100 tonnes of force each.the metal cladding of the rods becomes very brittle and the assemblies require careful handling if theyre not to shatter.

but it must also be done in a way that reassures the public that every possible precaution is being taken.Generating nuclear power requires moving spent radioactive fuel safely over thousands of miles from reactor sites for reprocessing or disposal.

these casks are so strong that they can take a direct hit at their weakest point by a 100 tonne diesel locomotive traveling at 100 mph (160 km/h) and still come away with little more than scratches and superficial dents

the polymers are first textured with grooves by imprinting them with the pattern from the data side of DVDs.which youd assume would go straight to his coffers.
