Völlig bizarr offenbar plant die neue #Bundesregierung, die Anti #Windkraft BI #Günterstal & irgendwelche Atomkonzerne auf den Wiesen einen kleinen SMR #Atomreaktor zu bauen um Strom zu erzeugen und ein Niedertemperaturfernwärmenetz zu versorgen:

Das Projekt hat sogar schon eine Website: reaktorle.de

Die Stadtverwaltung erscheint machtlos und Teile der Stadtspitze freuen sich wohl auf blaustichige Selfies dank der Tscherenkow-Strahlung.

A report from Hanford about the comparison between the now decommissioned Hanford N reactor (with negative void coefficient) and the Chernobyl RBMK reactor (with positive void coefficient) to see the difference in design. The Hanford reactor uses the light water and graphite as moderator, while RBMK only uses graphite, which is why Hanford N achieved negative void coefficient stability.

Yo dawg, there are #microbes living in your #nuclear #reactor.

MDPIDirect Meta-Analyses Reveal Unexpected Microbial Life in the Highly Radioactive Water of an Operating Nuclear Reactor CoreThe pools of nuclear reactor facilities constitute harsh environments for life, bathed with ionizing radiation, filled with demineralized water and containing toxic radioactive elements. The very few studies published to date have explored water pools used to store spent nuclear fuels. Due to access restrictions and strong handling constraints related to the high radioactivity level, nothing is presently known about life in water pools that directly cool nuclear cores. In this work, we investigated the microbial communities in the cooling pool of the French Osiris nuclear reactor using direct meta-omics approaches, namely, DNA metabarcoding and proteotyping based on 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing and on peptide analysis, respectively. We identified 25 genera in the highly radioactive core water supply during operation with radionuclide activity higher than 3 × 109 Bq/m3. The prevailing genera Variovorax and Sphingomonas at operation were supplanted by Methylobacterium, Asanoa, and Streptomyces during shutdown. Variovorax might use dihydrogen produced by water radiolysis as an energy source.
