I interviewed with an american company in the late 1970's, for a job at the Iraqui nuclear development center, where centrifugal separation was to be used for enrichment. Our company had done high-speed motor development, for the NASA rocket systems, upwards of 90,000-rpm. The Iraqui technology was somewhat primitive and they were offering about 3-times the going wage rate, for engineers who could do enrichment. At that time, I was making enough to buy two-houses with one years of net salary, but their offer could have allowed me to buy 6-houses, american equivalent. So I signed for a preliminary tour, and afterwards, after seeing the horrible living conditions, I bailed out. Do NOT believe anything you hear on the american media. That technology was transferred to the Iranians, in the late 80's, using our own motor technology, as given to them by the French and Germans. It was actually us, the USA, and the remaining Nazis who actually gave the Iranians that ability. If they nuke us, we are to blame.

Actually the Uranium is used to heat water, and that steam runs through a turbine, which conducts the electricity. The only difference between a Nuclear power plant and a coal/gas power plant is how the water is heated. After the water is heated, they all work the same.
It's not the "Plutonium" that heats the water, it's the fission decay that releases heat absorbed by the water. As to Plutonium, well - it's complicated, but most reactors primarily use Uranium or spent Uranium+Plutonium (MOX). Not a simple subject - I'll leave it there...
I think the spent rods could be buried below military runways in the far north to keep them from freezing over. People are seldom out on these runways and the rods could be buried deep enough to prevent harm to those who would occasionally be on the tarmac. The residual heat from spent rods could warm the concrete. They could further be put into ceramic shells to further isolate them as needed.
🤣🤣🤣 Spent rods stay under water in the spent fuel bay for 5 years to cool down. After that they go into dry storage in canisters or casks that have a design life of 100 years. Each container costs over $1million. What you're proposing would be an environmental disaster.

Iran already have their own mines and have all the factories to processed and refined the uranium ore including setting up centrifuges. Iran already have nuclear reactors to use the uranuim.
I've seen this process at BNFL Solwick near Preston, you can't have a drink in the workroom so it doesn't act as a moderator and produce fission, now that was insane...
I guess you visited the Oxide Fuels Complex? Drinking, eating & smoking is not allowed in controlled areas for various reasons, if you want a drink you just need to step out of the controlled area it's not a problem. Yes water is a moderator (slows the neutrons down) but only a problem in some high enrichment areas there are other materials which are moderators too such as polythene which must also be controlled. A criticality incident is always possible but there are many measures in place to mitigate that eventuality, water exclusion being just one. BTW its Salwick not Solwick and is now called Westinghouse formally BNFL and before that UKAEA in the really good old days!
After the collapse of Russia, some NATO countries purchased the used Uranium Rods to reprocesses them for domestic use and to keep the material from falling in to the wrong hands when communist infrastructure was falling apart.
Half of the energy Europe depends on is from Russia. Half of the uranium world depends on is from Russia. This is why those industries are still not sanctioned.
This procedure is similar to coal mining since the 1950's & 1960's. My grandfather worked first in the wood shop then worked in the mines even though he was over 6"2" high & the tunnels were about 5 & 1/2" high. He was diagnosed with black lung in the 1960's & was retired from the coal mine with retirement pay. My father also worked on the machines which grinned the coal from the coal face. He hated that work as a electrocution.
Most, but not all the fuel bundles they showed are ones for a CANDU reactor. The CANDU reactor uses natural (not enriched) uranium. I suspect Cameco also makes fuel bundles for other reactor designs that require enriched uranium..
They use neutron initiator elements- elements that will initially produce the neutrons to start the reaction. They usually use plutonium or californium or any other radioactive elements. If ever the reaction gets too hot, they put control rods such as boron that absorbs neutron.
Rods are emitting a truck load of Neutrons but low levels of Gamma, Beta and Alpha radiation. The Neutrons are going way too fast to smash the atoms without a moderator (yeah sound crazy don't it? but they just fly by), so when you put a shed load of these Uranium rods things together and slow the crazy neutrons down with big lumps of graphite (a moderator) the neutrons can smash the crap out of other U235 atoms splitting them and chucking out more neutrons, heat (and some other nasty undesirable rays) which smash the crap out of more atoms etc. causing a chain reaction and more heat than you can shake a stick at, until somebody chickens out and shoves in some Boron rods to soak up all the crazy neutrons and put an end to the party
Are you insane?! What if you have an accident in the many that happen every day? You think BEV fires are scary? Yea try a mini chirnoble on your block or at the mall opened up on the road. Then all the bad ppl who would collect these things and make bad things from them. I could go on. Humans really should be kept from certain things. This is example A.
Google the Nucleon. It never happened, and besides the concerns of an accident, the other problem is reactors require too much shielding. That is heavy and drastically reduces efficiency and amount of room in the car. In a way, if you have an electric car, you already have a nuclear-powered car. Look up (using EIA website) your state for how much power comes from which source.
@aurorajones8481 being overly concerned for safety prevents technological advancement. That's why 3rd world countries growing,but all we can think of is safety.
Not really. Building a nuclear power plant is very costly, upwards of billions of dollars. The energy company won't see a return on that investment for decades after the plant has been built. I'm not sure what you're basing your claim on, but it's simply not true.
@Obsidian-Nebula 1. Because the cheapest place to build nuclear power is near the water.. for cooling.. 2. Using value engineering and the lowest bidder always works out well.. 3. You can figure number three.
They are not handling it with bare hands, or at least should not. In the video the handlers are wearing gloves of various types, including simple latex. They are handling titanium rods, not bare U235. See Wikipedia about "thermal neutrons" and "Gray units" to get a better understanding of those parameters. The thermal neutrons from natural U235 are very low energy, fractions of an eV. As such, they are absorbed almost immediately by any nearby barriers. The real danger is the "dust" or airborne particles, which if breathed in, will stick to lung tissue and act as a cancer inducing site. Even at these low eVs, the dust is far more dangerous. Here in Colorado, the soil is naturally radioactive at very high levels, producing Radon gas in under floor dirt areas. Even so, we have one of the best health records in the whole country. Metallic DU is much less radioactive than many of our natural soils. However HEU in metallic form is unsafe to handle, since it will emit high energy neutrons. That requires heavy metal shielding.
2:45, u238 is barely active and at the concentrations in the ore, its self-shielding. It’s far more hazardous as a heavy metal than it is as a radiological hazard. Different story if enriched, but FFS most house bricks are slightly RA…

@@khanch.6807 to be honest, time distance shielding. Don’t hold it for long. HEU is somewhat RA, but it’s *NOTHING* compared to irradiated fuel, which is ABSOLUTELY HOOFING STINKING HOT. The neutron activated nastiness that comes out of reactors is maaaaany orders of magnitude worse than 235u for activity. Even Pu is safe to handle. The MAJOR hazard is cuts and getting minuscule traces of U/Pu into your bloodstream, because the radionuclide will sit there irradiating your innards for eternity. 239Pu half life is 24,000years, 235U is 450,000,000 years, and 238U is 4.5Bill years. The external irradiation hazards aren’t great for HEU and Pu, but the heavy metal toxicity and getting gently internally alpha’d to buggery for the rest of your life by a tiiiiiiny spec of metal or oxide that gets into a cut is muuuuuch worse.
I skimmed this, but didn't hear mention that this particular configuration is unique to Canadian Candu reactors. (These are operated in several countries).

You should learn about the different types of radiation, alpha, beta, gamma. As well as radioactive half lifes. But, in case you don't, here is a summary of why this is okay without getting too technical. Uranium emits alpha radiation, which doesn't penetrate very well. A piece of paper is enough to block most of the alpha radiation emitted by uranium. The dead layer of skin on your hands, or anywhere else, is enough to block most of the radiation. It can only really do damage to something if it's in direct contact. Even a few inches of air is enough to block an alpha ray. The only real concern is getting dust from it on your hands, and then ingesting that dust. Whether it's by touching your face without realizing it, or eating something while the dust is on your hands. Once it's inside your body, such as your lungs, the alpha radiation can directly interact with your cells and cause problems. Gloves and suits are usually necessary when handling uranium or anything radioactive for this reason. You work with it, throw away the gloves, and then scan your hands with a geiger counter for any contamination. If there is, you just wash it off and check again. The half life of uranium-238, which is the most common one in nature, is billions of years. Which means it decays very slowly. Meaning it gives off radiation slowly. It may stick around longer than the age of the universe, but there are elements which emit just as much radiation in a matter of days, weeks, months, years, you see where I'm going with this. The lower the half life, the more intense the radiation and hence, the more dangerous it is. But uranium can still do damage internally. Most people focus on the radiation so much, they don't realize uranium is also a heavy metal. Like mercury, or lead. And it will cause health problems outside of what the radiation alone would do. If it emitted beta or gamma radiation, it would not be safe to handle, or even be around, depending on how radioactive it is. Which is why I say to look up what the 3 main types of radiation are. It will at least explain what I've explained in depth more. Here's a video that explains it, to save you the trouble of looking it up: ua-cam.com/video/iTb_KRG6LXo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Fermilab
They missed that bit out cos its uses some real bad chemicals! goes something like this: UO3(yellow powder) + H2(Hydrogen) = UO2 kiln or fluid bed process, UO2(brown powder) + AHF(Super nasty acid that eats bone and melts glass) = UF4 kiln or fluid bed process, UF4(green powder) + F2(Fluorine)(Real nasty reacts with anything causing fires) = UF6 (HEX) (Nasty gas at room temp), UF6 + ENRICHMENT = ENRICHED UF6, then back to UO2 and sintered into the little pellets
You do not distinguish between U235 and U238 very well it is the increase of proportion of U235 via centrafuge which is called enrichment;you only say the U235 can cause a chain reaction - you don't make it clear that U238 is useless in the reactor; and that only the U235 splits. You don't say how these chemical reactions take place you use useless words like - it is treated by acid - not very informative, why not even more vaughe - it uses a process or it is changed or something is done to it. Pretty much a useless video.

Once it's inside your body, such as your lungs, the alpha radiation can directly interact with your cells and cause problems.
Gloves and suits are usually necessary when handling uranium or anything radioactive for this reason. You work with it, throw away the gloves, and then scan your hands with a geiger counter for any contamination. If there is, you just wash it off and check again.
The half life of uranium-238, which is the most common one in nature, is billions of years. Which means it decays very slowly. Meaning it gives off radiation slowly. It may stick around longer than the age of the universe, but there are elements which emit just as much radiation in a matter of days, weeks, months, years, you see where I'm going with this. The lower the half life, the more intense the radiation and hence, the more dangerous it is. But uranium can still do damage internally.
Most people focus on the radiation so much, they don't realize uranium is also a heavy metal. Like mercury, or lead. And it will cause health problems outside of what the radiation alone would do.
If it emitted beta or gamma radiation, it would not be safe to handle, or even be around, depending on how radioactive it is. Which is why I say to look up what the 3 main types of radiation are. It will at least explain what I've explained in depth more. Here's a video that explains it, to save you the trouble of looking it up: ua-cam.com/video/iTb_KRG6LXo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Fermilab
Dosage matters.
intensity matters.
This video is stolen from a Canadian video made from Cameco. AI-generated slop has been dubbed over it. 😂
Can you freeze the pool which in turn wouldn't freeze but really cool things down.
The tempreture can not be drastically changed. freezing would be drastically changing the temperature too quickly.
It would appear that it hardly damages the environment at all during its production😅😅
Did the ai at the beginning say “produces enough yeet”?
Great video.
clean energy my ass!

Career Of Cancer @ 40 CPM What They Won't SAY
Are you being serious? The carrer paths are obvious as this is a very specific field.
Oncology...
Is this a legal drill location?
How tf did we figure this shit out.
THE NEW GOLD...!
Is Saskatchewan really in Canada?
What if the uranium pellets are used as a bullet in machine guns.... Very dangerous
Kazakstan have bige and best uranium
Australia.
Like in your steam pressure do you understand how to reach gravity temperature are you still using Einstein's equations
Who the hell figured all this out?!
8347 manufacturing steps later it seems that solar+battery is the way to go.
How you gonna gonna tell us the series of chemical reactions used to purify the uranium after the acid bath?
They missed that bit out cos its uses some real bad chemicals! goes something like this: UO3(yellow powder) + H2(Hydrogen) = UO2 kiln or fluid bed process, UO2(brown powder) + AHF(Super nasty acid that eats bone and melts glass) = UF4 kiln or fluid bed process, UF4(green powder) + F2(Fluorine)(Real nasty reacts with anything causing fires) = UF6 (HEX) (Nasty gas at room temp), UF6 + ENRICHMENT = ENRICHED UF6, then back to UO2 and sintered into the little pellets
What's with the metric system??? We don't do metric here in USA
Why are the workers handling uranium like iron
OMG What an enormously complicated and costly industry.
Im sorry; but the workers seem to be nothing more than paid Nintendo players. Operating remotes, and no manual labor.
You do not distinguish between U235 and U238 very well it is the increase of proportion of U235 via centrafuge which is called enrichment;you only say the U235 can cause a chain reaction - you don't make it clear that U238 is useless in the reactor; and that only the U235 splits. You don't say how these chemical reactions take place you use useless words like - it is treated by acid - not very informative, why not even more vaughe - it uses a process or it is changed or something is done to it. Pretty much a useless video.

Were does the radioactive air from the mine go...polluting the environment ?
Uranium is not active in its natural state only after it has been processed .
its water vapor. you must be thinking of coal plants
and yet its water that turns the generator.
