Will power generation through Nuclear Power Plants be envoronment friendly? I mean why is india more intrested than compared to renewel energy sources?
ANSWER: I guess the reason for using lies mainly in the high availability of uranium and other rawmaterials whic are needed for running a Nuclear power plant. Well the conventional resources like coal and petrol which are used for eletric power generation are diminishing and there is a need to find resources which can be used for large scalegeneration of eletricity. so the obvious choice is Nuclear power plat as uranium is abundantly available for now. Nuclear power plants are not as eco friendly either as lot of water is needed for cooling the reactors and this water is taken from seas or rivers and is released back in to them. Warmer water is not good for plants and fishes. Also the nuclear waste generated need to be stored for centuries for its radioactive properties to receed. more info at : http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4566966_nuclear-energy-affect-environment.html
ANSWER: Nuclear energy is the energy that directly releases after controlled Atomic reactions. Nuclear power is obtained from release of nuclear energy, a type of nuclear technology involving the controlled use of nuclear reactions. Out of two (fission and fusion) known technology, fission technology is used by nuclear power plant and fusion technology is under development stage. Nuclear power plants generate electricity by using heat obtained from such fission reaction; usually use uranium-235 (U-235) as fuel. The nucleus of U-235 has 92 protons and 143 neutrons. When bombarded by extra neutrons on U-235, it loses atomic balance and becomes unstable to split into smaller pieces of fission products and releases more neutrons. This post splitting mass difference causes to release huge energy in the form of heat. The extra neutrons produced responsible for further chain reaction within the leftover mass of uranium. Nuclear Fusion technology is to combine two light atomic nuclei to form one heavier nucleus. This process generates tremendous amount of energy - heat. As this technology generates enormous amount of energy, we are now struggling to control this quantum of energy obtained out of fusion reaction
