What source of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy
What can nuclear energy become?
Nuclear waste. Consumable Energy. Heat.
Which energy source generates radioactive waste?
Nuclear energy generates radioactive waste in the form of spent nuclear fuel, which contains radioactive isotopes. This waste must be stored and managed properly due to its long-term hazardous nature.
What kind of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy produces radioactive waste because if there isnt any sign of nuclear waste/energy in the sullotion/object then it wouldnt be counted as 'Radioactive'.
Is nuclear waste a problem with solar energy?
No, it is not.
What are the waste by-products of nuclear energy?
popcicles
What energy generates radioactive waste?
Nuclear
What are benifets of nuclear energy?
It is very inexpensive and supplies huge amounts of energy but produces nuclear waste.
What major problems can nuclear energy cause?
Nuclear waste, depletion of Uranium.
What animals are affected by nuclear waste?
Nuclear wastes may be the cause of radioactive contamination of soils, waters, atmosphere, living beings.
What are environmental consequences of nuclear energy?
The primary environmental consequence of nuclear energy is unwanted radioactive contamination. This can be in aerial release of steam, or water pollution in the cooling cycle and in affected groundwater. The spent nuclear materials from reactors (nuclear waste) must be stored away for thousands of years before they pose no threat to biological organisms. They have the capacity to pollute large areas unless properly handled. A secondary and limited consequence may be thermal pollution from the waste heat released into the environment. However, this is only a factor at a minority of reactor sites.
What type of energy produces radioactive waste?
nuclear
