Japan Nuclear Problem

Also, notice that there has been no video footage of the No.2 reactor building exploding? *Or of the No.4 reactor on fire? The explosions appear to be quite sequential, and therefore quite possibly planned, as opposed to an accidental explosion, so it's more than likely that they know what they are doing and making do with a worst case scenario. But, the situation only escalated after all three working reactors (out of the six) have now suffered explosions. I don't doubt the the Japanese for their technical ability, but I also don't feel that they are giving people the facts. as of tonight they'd evacuated workers- Hide quoted text - IMHO, a better way to fix it, now it seems to have got completely out of hand, thanks to the usual 'incompetence of engineers' who designed emergency systems that don't work in an emergency, would be: 1. Get everybody out of the plant, tell all local residents to stay inside and close the windows, 'Protect and Survive' stylee (much better than the daft policy of evacuating the surrounding area, which is going to cause major problems with housing evacuees) 2. Induce intentional meltdowns in all reactors, by precision-bombing them from the air, so that the cooling systems are completely smashed and all coolant escapes. This would cause the fuel to melt down into the layer of graphite provided beneath the reactors for just this scenario, you then monitor the situation from the air with thermal cameras etc. 3. Once the graphite has absorbed all the fuel, you really let the site have it with large bombs, so that the graphite layer is buried under rubble and displaced soil etc. 4. Finally you finish the job by sending men and machines in, with appropriate NBC precautions, to entomb the whole thing in concrete. |
