Big Theories 16 Nov 2010 Nuclear Fusion: Energy for the Future? - 23 Mar 2007 By Nigel Praities Page 1 of 3 When it comes to energy sources, nuclear fusion used to be the wallflower. But now, scientists are working to see if it could be a safe and environmentally-friendly way of producing electricity. The energy crisis has rocketed from a textbook concept into the most pressing political issue of our time. Future energy supplies are increasingly vulnerable and global consumption is expected to escalate dramatically, increasing by 71% in 2030 and continuing to rise. Energy shortages would have a dramatic impact on every area of modern life: business, transport, food, health and communications. This looming crisis has drawn scientific minds and encouraged radical research into arcane technologies, such as the once neglected area of nuclear fusion.

24. Nuclear Energy. Fusion And Fission Nuclear energy is energy obtains from some nucleus of atoms. There is enormous amounts of energy in the bonds that hold nucleus's particles together http://www.petervaldivia.com/technology/energy/nuclear-power.php

Petervaldivia Bilingual English Section Index Energy Wind Energy Solar Power ... Nuclear Power Nuclear energy. Fusion and Fission Posted on October 24th, 2008 by Technology Department Nuclear energy is energy obtained from the nucleus of some atoms. There are enormous amounts of energy in the bonds that hold nucleus particles together. If we break these bonds, energy is released and energy can be produced ( Fission energy ) or for some atoms, if we "fuse" atoms to form a larger atom, energy is realised ( fusion ) On the left, nuclear fission ( Used in Nuclear power plants to produce electricity) and on the right a nuclear fusion ( This is how the sun produces energy) In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. In nuclear fusion, energy is released when atoms are combined together to form a larger atom. Nuclear Fission Above on the left there is a fission process in which an atomic nucleus (usually uranium-235 ) is broken by a neutron impact. The original heavy nucleus splits into two lighter nuclei also releasing free neutrons and an enormous quantity energy, and even gamma radiation ( the undesired collateral effect ) Some of these free neutrons may later impact against other atoms and trigger further fission events.

How Fission Splits the Uranium Atom Source: National Energy Education Development Project (Public Domain) Nuclear Energy Is Energy from Atoms Nuclear energy is energy in the nucleus (core) of an atom. Atoms are tiny particles that make up every object in the universe. There is enormous energy in the bonds that hold atoms together. Nuclear energy can be used to make electricity. But first the energy must be released. It can be released from atoms in two ways: nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. Nuclear power plants use this energy to produce electricity.

PESWiki.com Pure Energy Systems Wiki: Finding and facilitating breakthrough clean energy technologies. News: Cold Fusion: 60 Minutes: More Than Junk Science From PESWiki Jump to: navigation search Page first featured April 20, 2009 The CBS segment starts out: "Twenty years ago it appeared, for a moment, that all our energy problems could be solved. It was the announcement of cold fusion - nuclear energy like that which powers the sun - but at room temperature on a table top. It promised to be cheap, limitless and clean. Cold fusion would end our dependence on the Middle East and stop those greenhouse gases blamed for global warming. It would change everything. But then, just as quickly as it was announced, it was discredited. So thoroughly, that cold fusion became a catch phrase for junk science. Well, a funny thing happened on the way to oblivion - for many scientists today, cold fusion is hot again." Cold Fusion is Hot Again A report by CBS News' 60 Minutes program on April 19, 2009 states: "When first presented in 1989 cold fusion was quickly dismissed as junk science. But, as Scott Pelley reports, there's renewed buzz among scientists that cold fusion could lead to monumental breakthroughs in energy production." In a surprisingly positive reivew, CBS gives out high hope for this long-maligned field of study. As of today, April 20, 2009, the day following their report, this story was listed #1 in their "Most Viewed Videos" at the bottom of each page, even more popular than their two recent stories on the singing sensation, Susan Boyle (which would have won had it come out the same day), which was produced 4 and 5 days ago.

Skip to Navigation Scottish Universities Physics Alliance Home Energy ... Nuclear Energy Fusion Energy Fusion Energy (Inertial and Magnetic Confinement) What is fusion? C to achieve fusion reaction rates high enough to produce a useful energy source. Typically deuterium and tritium , two isotopes of hydrogen, are used as the fuel. These nuclei fuse to form a helium nucleus, and in the process release large amounts of energy in the form of high energy neutrons. A total of 17.6MeV (megaelectron volts) of energy is released per reaction. The energy carried by the neutrons can be slowed down in a blanket surrounding the reaction chamber and the resultant heat could produce steam to drive turbines in a commercial fusion power station. Confinement of the plasma is important to sustain and control fusion reactions in the laboratory long enough for fusion to work as an energy source. There are two main approaches to achieve that, inertial (laser-) confinement and magnetic confinement and SUPA researchers are working on both approaches. Inertial (Laser-) Confinement Fusion The Fast Ignition (FI) approach to ICF involves the use of ultra-short duration high intensity laser pulses to ignite the fuel core that has been compressed by longer laser pulses. This scheme holds the promise of reducing the laser drive energy required to achieve ignition, and hence improve the overall efficiency of inertial confinement. FI is a major focus of research at several laser laboratories around the world and is central to the UK-led EU FP7 Roadmap project

Radiation is released into the environment and people get hurt. Two of the most famous nuclear accidents occurred at the Three Mile Island reactor 2 in the United States and the Chernobyl reactor 4 in the former Soviet Union. In this text we will discuss these two disasters, along with correcting a few common misconceptions about nuclear accidents. The Myth of a Reactor Explosion: It is impossible for any PWR or LWR nuclear reactor to explode like an atomic bomb. This is because in order for an uncontrolled chain reaction to occur that is similar to an atom bomb, the uranium fuel must be extremely enriched, much more than the 4%

FREE E-LETTER Energy and Capital Share Text: Comment The Nuclear Side of the Moon By Keith Kohl Tuesday, February 20th, 2007 Baltimore, MD - By 2050, the world will have an estimated population of 12 billion people. The demand for energy will be enormous. But one solution to the world's long-term energy demands may be 239,000 miles away. The world is desperately looking for an heir to oil. Among the contenders is the nuclear option. And the nuclear boom has already started. Uranium prices have increased dramatically. Prices may even reach $100/pound before 2007 is over. Also, current uranium production cannot meet demand. So Australia, holding 40% of the world's reserves, is beginning to open up new property for development. By 2050, the world will need about 900 nuclear plants to satisfy its energy requirements. Japan plans to build five by 2010, China expects 30 before 2020, and India already has 9 under construction. Even Canada is refurbishing over two dozen of its facilities. The 103 nuclear plants in the U.S. supply nearly 20% of our electricity. But the solution I was referring to is a different kind of nuclear power - nuclear fusion.

Where Knowledge Rules Search Sciences Physical Science Astronomy ... for this title @import url("/css/widget.css"); The difference between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion Top Article All 7 Articles of 7 Write now Article Tools by Keith Hamburger Fission and fusion are each atomic nuclear reactions but they are very different from one another. Atomic means they involve individual atoms while nuclear means that the reaction is in the nucleus of the atoms. Reaction means that an interaction takes place that causes a change. Nuclear reactions, like all reactions, can take energy or release energy. The reactions we are most familiar with are chemical reactions. When we burn wood or fossil fuel to release energy we are dealing with a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction is different from a nuclear reaction in the level at which the changes take place. In a chemical reaction molecules are taken apart and put together in a different arrangement. The atoms themselves are unchanged Nuclear reactions differ from chemical reactions in that they take place at the atomic nuclear level. Atomic nuclei are made up of protons and neutrons. Nuclear reactions change the configuration of the protons and neutrons within the nucleus of the atom. This type of reaction can release much more energy than a chemical reaction. Fission is the splitting of atomic nuclei into two or more parts. To help understand the terminology we might consider the source of the word "fission". It comes from the same root as the more familiar word "fissure" which refers to a split in something. Fission involves taking apart the nucleus of an atom.
