whats it called

chinatown syndrome?

something like that

the contamination to the water table is the worst danger

not the land

All land has a local water table so

if you fuck the water you fuck the land tho

Where I lived, they poured concrete going 20 stories down because the clay soil was super deep, and they wanted to build a skyscraper on it. They had to go 20 stories down just to hit bedrock.

I have a plan

so think of it this way my man

you have a control rod

true but like in Pripyat, there is only enough water for some animals

a stick of uranium capable of being used in a reactor for years

not enough for town of people

years in which

Why can't you do the same with a reactor? Just have a pipe that goes super fucking deep, so deep that it doesn't even matter, and if your fuel melts it goes down there.

water is used to always cool it

because naturally it will always be hot

unless cooled

and will melt through everything

pipes corrode

for years

and years

pipes melt

You could build walls (downwards underground) in a square around it that go a little past rock so that there is a divider keeping safe the water table beyond the walls

you have a closed system under constant pressure

Assuming the rock ins't pourus anyway

heat is a bitch, u take away people and electricity and u WILL have a melt down with the current designs

It seems like the most practical solution is giving the uranium and steam somewhere to go. In the case of uranium, you could give it a passage at least one or two miles into the Earth, well below the water table.

my car won't blow up if i just abandon it

because thats reasonable

lol

We're already achieving those depths with oil drilling.

oil drilling is a tiny pipe

and very expensive

nuclear is already too expensive to be profitable

While I question the dangers of drilling 2km into the ground in a populated area

yup

2 km is no problem

the casing keeps it capped
