Honeywell plant is a chemical manufacturing plant. Not a Nuclear Power Plant. So this would be a chemical leak accident or pushing it, you could call it a radiation leak. But this is not a Nuclear accident. [/quote] Uraninum is uranium, it doesn't matter what they were intending to do with it. It'll get inside you and slowly kill you all the same. [/quote] And I also note that they must notify the NRC when they have "oopsies," you know, the completely useless Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Maybe because what they are doing is called Nuclear Reprocessing. You know, enriching uranium for use in Nuclear Fuel. How is this anything BUT Nuclear related? [/quote] This is actually even WORSE because in addition to the nuclear component of the uranium, which is a gamma emitted and drops radon daughters all over the place, Hydrofluric acid (created when they dump water or foam on the mess) is extremely toxic and corrosive. "Uranium hexafluoride (UF6), referred to as "hex" in the nuclear industry, is a compound used in the uranium enrichment process that produces fuel for nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. It forms solid grey crystals at standard temperature and pressure, [b]is highly toxic, reacts violently with water and is corrosive to most metals[/b]." What do you think it does to lungs? I should change the title, because it is actually a [b]NUCLEAR+CHEMICAL ACCIDENT[/b]. Thanks. [/quote] Meh. You're right. But it's not like a Nuclear power plant is in meltdown and going to blow up and make hundreds of square miles uninhabitable for centuries. [/quote]
