The robots entered the plant's number 3 reactor building and were due to take radiation and temperature readings. They are equipped with video cameras that can provide a live feed to operators

The new Mox Savannah River Site is way over budget and had no one who wanted the MOX it will produce . The two plants that where thinking about it are stepping back and evaluating it more . That's why there changing some things now at the Savannah River Site . Everyone seen the explosion in Unit...

Unit 4--Workers were firing water into the pond from a distance in an effort to prevent the fuel from overheating and releasing radioactive contaminants, but fluid collecting in an adjacent flood control container triggered an incorrect warning that the pond had been filled. Personnel halted...

Any TVA move on the proposal has been put off pending a review of the behavior of MOX fuel at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, which was severely damaged last month by a 9.0-magnitude earthquake and tsunami . The federal investigation would address the extent to which the MOX fuel...

I think there just worried it has caused a new leak .-- But the government said Saturday that levels of radioactive materials in the seawater have risen again in recent days. The level of radioactive iodine 131 jumped to 6,500 times the legal limit, according to samples taken Friday, up from...

All videos of Unit 3 have shown steam or smoke at times escaping from reactor location . This shows that outer containment of RPV has been breached at least . I think this had a lot to do with the huge explosion we all seen at Unit 3 . Unit 3 is also the one loaded with the MOX fuel . This may...

RADIATION levels around Japan’s stricken nuclear plant soared after another earthquake jolted the *country yesterday. Read more: http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2011/04/17/fresh-leak-fears-as-japan-rocked-by-another-earthquake-115875-23066249/#ixzz1JkYl16i3

T- Hawk video from 4-15-11 shows a closeup of the gray mass in Unit 4 around 2.48 and it appears to be rubber roof sheathing or something similar .

New T-Hawk video from 4-15-11 . Some closer shots of Unit 1 and Unit 3 . Video quality looks a little better .

In this image taken by T-Hawk drone aircraft, Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO) Co.'s crippled Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant No.1 reactor building's rooftop is seen in Fukushima, northern Japan April 15, 2011 . We have found one thing out for sure . That the T-Hawk drone is not worth the...

Zeolites have uses in advanced reprocessing methods, where their micro-porous ability to capture some ions while allowing others to pass freely allow many fission products to be efficiently removed from nuclear waste and permanently trapped. --Shooting location: the south side of the screen of...

The Case for Moving U.S. Nuclear Fuel to Dry Storage Nuclear waste pools are packed more densely in the U.S. than those at Fukushima, with no removal plan in sight. The 2003 report said that in the event of coolant loss in a densely packed pool, air cooling would not suffice. Temperatures...

Tokyo - Workers in the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant were attempting to reduce radioactive contamination in waters off the coastal power station, the Jiji Press agency reported Saturday. Some 300 kilograms of zeolith, a mineral that authorities hope will absorb radioactivity from water being...

The US Department of Energy facility storing melted fuel from the Three Mile Island nuclear plant has not done enough to address crumbling concrete modules encasing the radioactive material, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission said in a letter made public Friday. The DOE facility at the...
