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.

​@@miketiong8441Original comment was a joke. And yeah, we know that Iran has uranium centrifuges. That's why the US put sanctions on them.

Sure, kiddo. Sure.

75% of the USA uranium is from RUSSIA...This is just story for idiots.. USA cant power a dildo without Russian uranium..

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.

I hear you Ra*. I had a GF named Uranium. One day she just split

If the USA had the same foeign policy as Switzerland, Iran would still have their old monarchy in charge and they would have been on good terms with the US.

But inaccurate

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!

🙄 Ooooh...Good one !

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.

@halonothing1 sarcasm is beyond your higher intellect, apparently.

They should use them in some other way to absorb their energy.

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

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.

Simple

@@Chicago_Clout Yes, I wonder why I didn't think of that!😁

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

Nice indeed opal miner here down under silicon dust is a given .

Cos they are well nasty and dangerous

And the Persian subtitles too for my friend

You mean for the Ayatollahs in Iran?

U238 is depleted uranium U235 is the good stuff

Because these are new fuel assemblies, their radioactivity is very low. 99.3% of the uranium atoms in these new pellets are U-238, which decays by emitting alpha particles (helium nuclei), with a half-life of about 4.7 billion years. The remaining 0.3% is U-235, with a half-life of about 700 million years. U-235 also decays by alpha particle emission. There are very few free neutrons flying around in fresh fuel pellets, and the few that are present are moving at nearly the speed of light, far too fast to cause fission. In order to split a U-235 nucleus, a free neutron needs to be slowed down to about 2,500 meters/second, and become a "thermal" neutron. This slow-down can happen if the fuel is surrounded by water, or carbon in the form of graphite. Fast neutrons smack into the hydrogen nuclei in water, or the carbon nuclei in graphite, giving up some kinetic energy with each collision, but without being absorbed. When the neutrons are finally slowed down to about 2,500 m/sec, they can be absorbed by an nucleus of a fissionable metal, like U-233, U-235, or Pu-239. This extra thermal neutron destabilizes the nucleus, allowing electromagnetic repulsion between the positively charged protons to overcome the strong nuclear force that is holding the nucleus together. So, when new fuel bundles are being shipped, they are surrounded by dry air in the shipping cask. No water or graphite is present, so no thermal neutrons are present, and no fission can occur. Also, the reactor control rods you mention are not graphite, they are made of cadmium and borate salts. Both cadmium and boron nuclei have a very high affinity for capturing free thermal neutrons without re-emitting them, so inserting these cadmium rods, or flooding the reactor with boric acid solution, immediately shuts down a neutron chain reaction. Also note: most of graphics and video clips used in this video are for the Canadian CANDU reactor, which uses very short fuel rods as shown, about 1 meter long, inserted horizontally into the reactor core. Almost all other reactor designs use much longer fuel rods, 4 meters more or less, which sit vertically in the reactor. The big advantage of the CANDU design is that it can be re-fueled while running at full power. American and European reactors have to be shut down to be re-fueled, usually for at least 3 months after each 18 to 24 month full power run. I know my explanation was very technical, but I hope you got the gist of it. As long as new fuel isn't exposed to water or graphite during shipment, it's quite safe.

@@laura-ann.0726 Thank you, Laura very much for this explanation. It is all making sense now. I learned something new today. Much appreciated !

You have to do it step-by-step. From Fossil Fuel, you move to EV. And I am at the second stage at this time.

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: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n7qSkq6DrJywiKM.html&ab_channel=Fermilab

Dosage matters.

Just imagine car get accident then!

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.

​@@vahagnmelikyan2906ifhy

People don''t touch the rods when it is removed from the reactor. However, during the original creation of the assembly, it is very weakly radioactive and safe to handle.

Uranium is not active in its natural state only after it has been processed .

because its too hot to safely store outside of water but not hot enough to create the super heated steam required to generate electricity

@@raptorthegamer5524 okay and how hot are we talking about?

Australia.

"No, Homer ! You're not supposed to eat the uranium rods ! " "D'oh ! "

Snorting is not allowed

You are unbelievably stupid to think that there isn’t multiple crews working on different rods at the same time….. also if the payoff from one of those little tiny cylinders is equal to 1400lbs of coal or 1000lbs of oil I think it’s worth it.

actually, nuclear energy is pretty safe, and so far there have been no recorded incidents radioactive waste leakage, unlike coal power plants which dump the carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. as for the energy used to extract uranium, its a tiny fraction of the energy that is produced by the uranium when it is fissioned

@@raptorthegamer5524 That does not answer the question. Like saying there is only a tiny amount of arsenic in my drinking water. As for nuclear safety. Let me introduce you to my family who was exposed to a tiny nuclear cloud and all have cancer. Just because there are no "recorded" incidents does not mean that are not happing and just being swept under the rug. Take a look at what is going on in Germany and their waste products. I don't think you under stand the scale of the waste issue. Waste starts at the mining site to the process centers power plant and ALL those buildings and equipment is waste. Several years ago a tiny amount of radioactive metal was acquired by a steel factory that made rebar for construction. Several buildings were built and luckily torn down. Now all that material is waste. A better solution is to clean the coal plants and reduce the amount of resources we use. But that would require real effort on our part and NO one wants to do that.

This is NOT the case. "uranium-235 contains two to three million times the energy equivalent of oil or coal. " So.. 1kg of coal ~ 8 kWh 1KG of U235 ~ 24,000,000 kWh Where does the carbon from "burning" fuel go? How much CO2 does the 24,000,000 kWh from uranium produce?

@@davidkennedy7630 Not disputing that uranium has more energy per pound than any fossil fuel. BUT What do you think the fuel is for mining the ore, Transporting the ore, Processing the ore, manufacturing the fuel, transporting the fuel to the reactor. Building the reactor, dismantling the reactor , Digging the hole for burring the waste, shipping the waste, guarding the waste, by the way all the mining equipment in nuclear waste along with the shipping containers processing and manufacturing plants. Where does all that radioactive bits that are dropped along the way go? I know carbon dioxide is not going to kill me. I know radiation will make my quality of life much worse. Not promoting coal plants. natural gas is the way to go. it is renewable. and wont make you sick if you have a pound of it under your bed.

@@lostvisitor Probably the same as mining materials used to build wind mills, solar panels, etc? Where does the toxic coal waste go? what about all the toxic chemicals used to build solar panels, where does it end up? Kilo-for-Kilo it is hard to beat Uranium as a fuel source, even factoring in the extended storage of the waste products. Do the math yourself, Bruce Nuclear produces 48,169 GWh of power annually. How much wind/solar would it take to equal this? what do we do at night or when there is no wind? How much land would it take to build a solar/wind farm to create anywhere near that much power with similar reliability? Lastly, natural gas WILL kill you. "Natural gas can present immediate dangers at concentrations of 50,000 ppm." This is why mercaptan is added, so you can smell it before it kills you.

LOL

and you would know right ?

They are perfectly safe to handle before they begin their process of nuclear fission 😊

Some day or the other, nuclear power plants always meet their fate. Some faulty machine and everything is gone leaving a trail of destruction.

your voice is inappropriate

the manufacture of solar panels and of wind turbines is no different in terms of efficiency of total energy and materials inputs and waste outputs, except there is no waste radiation hazards for them. solar panels in particular require tons of mining, acid extraction, chemical refinement, mech engineering, etc. there's no perfect solution yet, which is why nuclear power is so viable still.
