Future of Nucear Plants coming in India.- Is it a wise decision to stop the nuclear plants program in India? @

A similar topic was discussed in Energy community. I talked about Renewable energy. Mainly on the score of environmental concern. But, now, the question posed is about the "Hazard involved in Nuclear Energy production".

A few of the Major Hazards are:-

• Radioactive material handling
• Chain reactions during fusion/fission activity
• Energy release & heat during split
• Fire & explosion
• Environmental damage
• Damage to property & people involved.

Technology is involved with Hazards but because of it, We never stop using it. These is the reason why various studies are carried before introduction , such as HAZID, HAZOP,QRA, Process Hazard Analysis,FEMA, LOP, EIA, etc etc.

When the Risk is made to acceptable level, only then very important industry such as Nuclear plant are allowed. For which the Safety standards & International community terms & conditions are very high. You can see it in BARC, Kalpakkam Nuclear power plant etc.

When adequate safety standards are provided & are being periodically reviewed, it will serve the community. Moreover, a part of it, is speaking about, the Emergency Preparedness required, in the event of any mishap happens. There should not be any Compromise made on it.

If we follow Industrial standards set-out strictly, we can avoid major set-backs, and I feel that, this energy can provide a viable alternative for Major Industrial Consumers.

Experts, please come with your comments.& please share yoyr views.
