I want more!)) Thanks

If the Tubes were bigger, could we not facilitate a Sleeve, then instead of refurbishing a whole reactor at once you re-sleeve.

bruh Gandu is literally an abuse in india meaning asshole

Tesla made solar batteries already

An excellent discussion that should give Canadians much to think about. I have a major problem with the discussion about pensions though. First, previous generations did all have generous pensions, stay at the same job their entire life or make it to the C suite. I graduated in the 70s and didn’t get a job with a pension until my forties and didn’t own a home until my fifties. This was pretty much the experience of most of my friends. The thing we had in common was that we were female. Second, there’s no reason people can’t have better pensions today. The problem is that we willingly accept an outdated economic system. There’s no reason we can’t change that.

CANDU is overcomplicated, low reliability, high cost

So why is this design not adopted world-wide?

So you can build marine reactor that doesn't need refueling for thirty years but you can't build one for land at a reasonable price 😮 Please explain this to me 😮

India used CANDUs too😊

i wanna know which country allow personal nuclear plant.

Osama, With the side loading of the fuel bundles, how does the heavy water not leak out? Thanks! BuBu

So cool!! I’m glad to know it is safe!

I still domt understand the fuel part, can you explain it? What ks the differnet between a candu reactor and a SMR( bwrx300)

This is crazy, they need them, and we need nuclear in Australia.

The more i listen to this reactor design, the dumber it sounds... From the corrosive CO2, to the production of plutonium, there's no reason to build these reactors

What are typical operating pressures and temperatures in various reactor designs, and what are the prices of suitable materials per reactors of various outputs? We need to know the places where the money goes!

Does BWR not require HD pipes and other materials in order to safely contain the high pressures and corrosion of the steam in the radioactive cooling (heat transfer) system which is transferred to the high pressure, non-radioactive part of the system? I'm reading that atmospheric pressure in non-boiling areas (molten salt or molten metal) have only to contain these low pressures by resisting corrosion, not high pressure plus corrosion.

great video

Good video, it gives a concise overview of the heavy water reactor. I've been a CANDU Disciple since the 1980s, they mitigate a lot of the downside associated with nuclear power production. I'm also an advocate for thorium reactors, the stuff is a lot more plentiful than yellow-cake. Also, less waste is generated and zero plutonium.

but you didnt say a thing about critical mass?

Wonderful video,I’m happy to the see the conversation around nuclear power is getting more attention, I’m excited for every innovation to come

Using the numbers from Frasier Institute, we could meet the electricity demand for the EV mandate with a doubling of our nuclear capacity.

Hey, thank you for this!

Hi Osama, love the channel! I am curious to find out more about the new private push for SMRs - can you please do a video on that? I did a coop term in nuclear and am confident in Canadian safety codes - but with the new US administration, are there risks in companies cutting QA/QC corners to get SMRs working?

I've been saying for years, the biggest obstacle to public nuclear energy education is the lack of basic energy education. If people understood how much we use, they'd see nuclear is the way. I put this up on TFIN today, BTW.

I like the idea of Cooperation between US and Canada on this. Reduce US waste from our pwrs, provide higher efficiency fuels for Candus, win-win!

на рбмк тоже круглые твелы

How small can a candu reactor be. For example are there reactors that can power a small city or a hospital?

🔥🔥🔥

Especially in the US the problem is more political. Not only that making a nuclear plant take long but getting approval from NRC takes as much if not more. We need to get faster approvals for smr designs and at the meantime we can invest in rare earth metals so we can have them when the plant will be constructed in about 10 years.

Pwr uses heavy water. Where does this guy get his facts from

you have so much awesome content related to energy n nuclear energy usage and stories. We really need energy literacy. thought AI automation is integral but after IoT lessons sustainable development will help eradicate poverty. AI is a tool

I worked at Sizewell A (SZA Magnox) in the 1990s in the UK, I always felt very safe on that station, Safety was (and still is) paramount in our nuclear industry in the UK. I was a classified R4 & C4 person (I could go into places that were the most radiological and contaminated places on the station) But I was continuously monitored by PDM (Personal dose meters) and film badges, NEVER once did I worry!

Google The Kingston Chronicle Medium blog account, to get the real information.

Pray it doesnt explodes

That is not why. You can hold enriched uranium equally fine. Enriched uranium is barely more radioactive than natural uranium. Both u-235 and u-238 have very similar half lifes. Of course, if you use breading to enrich uranium, there might be other isotopes, but afaik all enrichment is done by just separating u-235 and u-238 so no other isotopes (or short lived aka active ones) are introduced or heavily concentrated. Also uranium is not a rock.

Can u send me your line? I wanna be a nuclear science cientist, now i need help to choice my path on universaty

I know Korea experimented with OREOX. This is great comtent.

Water vapour is a green house gas...most prevalent in our atmosphere too.

Great job covering CNL! 😊

Hey I know this video is old but could you tell me from a power level perspective how much stronger and faster did Naruto get when he entered baryon mode, like basic elements how much energy do they produce by default, and how many times they increase in power, intensity during nuclear fusion, maybe you could help me translate real life nuclear fusion to Naruto s power level, I'm not sure if my question is confusing I'm literally a newby when it comes to this stuff, hopefully you can help me with this question.

Youre awsome bro. I love nerding out on this stuff.

THE PRESSURE TUBES IN THE CANADIAN REACTORS SOLD TO INDIA BURST IN 20 YEARS. INDIA HAD TO DEVELOP A 1:49 NEW ALLOY TO PREVENT IT HAPPENING.

RBMK?

Water as a nuclear moderator is foolishly dangerous. Don't believe me, go read up on Russia's RMK reactors.

I’m not an engineer but why do you sound like me ? Is personal growth and development important to all engineers or is that just a “you” thing ?

You mention MOX at the end, but this is largely false. I cannot verify the source of fuel used for Sellafield’s MDF (MOX Demonstration Facility), given the timescales (1993 - 2000) I would assume this to be partially Magnox, however, the pilot plant only produced ~ 18 tonnes of fuel. Fuel produced at the larger SMP (Sellafield MOX Plant) which was granted operational licence in 2001 was sourced from THORP’s Plutonium Finishing Line (TPFL). Its output was derisory and unfortunately the plant sustained just 10 years of dismal operations prior to closure directly resulting from the Fukushima disaster which destroyed any commercial outlook the plant had left. Majority of the finished Plutonium Oxide is simply stored on the site. Reprocessing was primarily implemented for Plutonium recovery. Once the Magnox design was exported and reprocessing contracts were signed as part of the deal did the then-operators of the site raise the idea of commercialising fuel reprocessing for profitability. The original pile fuel primary separation plant was repurposed in the late 1960’s to pre-handle oxide fuel for dissolution at the second primary separation plant (Magnox). Magnox fuel prior to head end reprocessing was sheared of its cladding and either stored into underwater skips, thrown into a silo, or in later years, encapsulated in a grout matrix. It was the former long-term storage of this cladding in the legacy pre handling facilities that has led to the high hazard risk reduction that is prioritised on the site today. No doubt, Magnox is a very unique fuel in the nuclear world and holds huge significance in UK nuclear history.

I think you can do a video on spent fuel reprocessing and how they are important. Verification is something worth discussing. CANDU is very cool.
