<<@imeagleeye1 says : Spent nuclear fuel, occasionally called used nuclear fuel, is nuclear fuel that has been irradiated in a nuclear reactor (usually at a nuclear power plant). It is no longer useful in sustaining a nuclear reaction in an ordinary thermal reactor and, depending on its point along the nuclear fuel cycle, it will have different isotopic constituents than when it started.[1] Spent fuel pool at a nuclear power plant Nuclear fuel rods become progressively more radioactive (and less thermally useful) due to neutron activation as they are fissioned, or "burnt", in the reactor. A fresh rod of low enriched uranium pellets (which can be safely handled with gloved hands) will become a highly lethal gamma emitter after 1–2 years of core irradiation, unsafe to approach unless under many feet of water shielding. This makes their invariable accumulation and safe temporary storage in spent fuel pools a prime source of high level radioactive waste and a major ongoing issue for future permanent disposal. 😊>> <<@goosegreen4008 says : Dutton’s nuclear proposal is uncosted, unsubstantiated, unrealistic, and entirely unviable. It's hard to consider a two-page media release a legitimate policy. Imagine if Labor attempted this; there would be an outcry over the lack of detail and costing. The media in this country set the bar so low for the Coalition, yet they still fail to meet it. We're expected to believe that the Coalition, which struggled to roll out the NBN on time and within budget, can successfully implement nuclear energy, a far more complex and costly endeavor.>> <<@kento7899 says : Is this an acknowledgement that wind and solar failed? I mean all that land area. You could build tons of wind and solar in the 15 years to build one of these things.>> <<@jennymills3147 says : GO!!! PETER DUTTON. the country is watching.>> <<@wilbur1884 says : LOOK ME-LUMN IT'S DAVAYE ALUTTA PROUD AGAYNE CAULZING LAYBOUR CONTRIVERSAYE LITTRILAYE EVERYDAYE TADAYE UND YESTURDAY.😢but hes still ALUTTA PROUD 👋😳>> <<@docjoei2224 says : Another government disaster incoming - just like the NBN 😂😂😂>>
