The Big Lie About Nuclear Waste

I was supposed to be a Navy reactor operator but went to college on scholarship instead. Wound up as a steam propulsion plant engineering officer.
Would the two experts here discuss pay for those jobs. I worked at Mare Island naval base on a building that the Navy said would be used to hold spent Fuel for submarines. They did not waste time educating we in construction.

Goombah is out of business. An Italian joint that made Italian beef and pizza the Chicago way

Goombah's was right outside the gate of mare island.

Pay, pretty good, most my life ain't made 50k doing outage work. That resulted in me only working 4 to 6 months a year.

Now in my field I work full time so ai easily doubled my pay

We carpooled on that job which for us was normal. We were stopped at the gate but did not ever go into local businesses there in Vallejo, Ca. I saw submarines there being refueled. The Navy classified Mare Island so even though we did not have an understanding of refuelling, we saw facilities. But our work was our mission so it was not being there to understand the way they got refueled. Then we drove piling inside a building that after we finished, a heavy duty concrete floor was poured. The navy there and workers never discussed this with me.

The only completed sub i was on was a los angeles class. All the controls and some components were covered with tarps so we could not see them. We were also escorted cause we did not have security clearances

I just read the same thing. We never went to any of those businesses. The area is residential as I recall this. I quit piledriving in 1967.

I only worked 1 time at Mare Island and due to the job, driving piling, we did not get security clearances. I quit that job in 1967 so you have an idea of what sort of nuclear subs were then there. To be honest, I don't recall the precise year I worked there. We also did another piledriving job at Skaggs island where we drove piling for an antenna used to communicate with the subs.
 
Discussions of using nuclear energy always wind up discussing waste. Well waste is not precisely waste. This so called waste still can produce nuclear power. I urge you to educate yourself by watching the Video I am presenting to you all. Good luck.



Thank you ....

Yes absolutely the spent fuel can be transferred to another type of power plant designed to extract the lower intensity rads.

I forgot the numbers but I think an additional 10 to 15 years of energy extraction can be obtained.

Given a little ingenuity One could probably even go further and build a third stage reactor.

You're preaching to the choir.

I think we need to embrace the nuclear energy sector and replace every single carbon burning generation plant with nuclear.

I just haven't really made up My mind on which is best. Molten Salt or Pressurized Water. The later is in widespread use in many places in the world but the Motlen Salt has far better safety features and I can't recall off the top of My head, it better for reprocessing fuel.

Molten salt as the circulatory heat transfer substance?

yet, there are no molten salt reactors in commercial operation. Molten salt reactors are all in the research and development stage.

How can you possibly think there are better safety features of a reactor that for the last 70 years was not used?
