In a speech to the Centre for Economic Development in Australia (CEDA), ACCC Chairman, Rod Sims, will speak about the ACCC's focus on «competition and consumer issues arising in highly concentrated sectors, and in particular the supermarkets and fuel sectors»: see Lucy Battersby, «Watchdog gets tough on retail» (The Age, 21 February 2013).
Entergy will also move a set yearly number of spent fuel rods from their dangerous storage pools to dry cask storage on site — a much safer solution for this radioactive material.
Meanwhile, Japan has struggled to bring its Rokkasho reprocessing plant online, even with the help of Areva, and currently relies on France and the U.K. to recycle its used uranium fuel rods.
This problem continues to grow because there remains no place for used nuclear fuel rod storage other than such pools or massive dry casks — both located on nuclear facility grounds.
Because of the harsh environment fuel rods are exposed to — heat, steam, and neutrons that emanate from nuclear reactions — extensive further testing will be needed on any new cladding for use in commercial reactors, Kazimi says.
That could allow reactor operators to squeeze extra energy out of fuel rods before refueling: The rods are typically replaced after four or five years in a reactor, and degradation of the cladding is a major limitation on their longevity.
But on March 21, one of Oyster Creek's sister plants — Entergy Corp.'s Vermont Yankee — received permission to operate for another 20 years, despite a recent history that includes leaks, burst cooling pipes and misplaced fuel rods.
On the basis of figures published by the IAEA on the accident at Tomsk, Large suspects that the vat that exploded contained a partly reprocessed French fuel roOn the basis of figures published by the IAEA on the accident at Tomsk, Large suspects that the vat that exploded contained a partly reprocessed French fuel roon the accident at Tomsk, Large suspects that the vat that exploded contained a partly reprocessed French fuel rod.
In the interim — which could stretch for a century — used fuel rods will remain where they are: at nuclear power plants themselves either in spent fuel pools or in giant concrete casks on pads.
The steam indicates that at least some cooling is going on and the heat of such fuel rods drops off dramatically over a period of days or weeks.
And we've tried out more designs, more nuclear powered designs in this one company than in all of the history of mankind put together, because we just happen to be out in front on, «Oh, change the fuel rod this way.»

Thanks to the design of its interior, friction has been reduced on the piston rods, giving better fuel consumption and engine performance - also enhanced by its valve mechanism and electronic management.

The GTR utilized the same basic 6.0 liter V12 engine that had made its debut on the street - legal GT, but with revised fuel and ignition systems, individual throttle bodies, a dynamic air intake duct system, variable valve timing, titanium connecting rods, and a lightened crankshaft.
But it's based on the same race - proven engine architecture serving Ford's IMSA Daytona Prototype endurance racing efforts and packed with tons of tech: highlights include variable cam timing, a low - friction roller - finger - follower valvetrain, a dual fuel injection system using both port and direct injectors, and Ford - engineered pistons, rods, camshafts and twin turbochargers.
One of the best representations of this is during one of the game's largest battlefields on Sangheilios where players will find themselves using high perches in order to get clean shots on enemies and even obtaining weapons such as vehicles, fuel rods, turrets and the fan favoured Beam Rifle.
Bank points to unlock fuel rods (or petrusite, as they're stupidly called), carry them to your base, shove them in the machine, and you can log on to activate a bonus.
Japan's Self - Defense Forces worked to cool a fuel rod storage pool at Reactor No. 3 at the Fukushima Daiichi plant on Friday.
Plants have safely stored spent fuel rods (which is the correct descriptor, not waste) since the early 60's on site.
An eight - digit assembly type code is assigned to each assembly type based on certain distinguishing characteristics, such as the number of rods per assembly, fuel roddiameter, cladding type, materials used in fabrication, and other design features.
Most pressurized water reactors (PWR, the type I worked on in the U.S. Navy) use water around the fuel rods to both and transfer heat away fro the fuel to do work and reflect neutrons back into the fuel rods.
I would not like a nuclear power plant of any size on my property as I wouldn't know what to do with the exhausted fuel rods.)
TEPCO was also criticized for keeping a large inventory of spent fuel rods in cooling ponds on the reactor site.
Annually, Entergy will be responsible for moving a set number of spent fuel rods from its dangerous storage pools to dry cask storage on site - a much safer technology for storing radioactive material.
But, there will always be a job managing the exploding polar bear population, or stacking fuel rods at Fukushima to fall back on....
There's some merit to Rod's argument — and some numbers are available on how much of the food people are eating ccomes from energy - intensive, fossil - fuel - dependent farming.
