It is in chinese so turn on the subs

2018-11-05 02:03:55 UTC  

I was looking for a source on recycling waste

2018-11-05 02:04:00 UTC  

Oh

2018-11-05 02:04:02 UTC  

my bad

2018-11-05 02:04:02 UTC  

I had already heard of fast breeder reactors

2018-11-05 02:04:07 UTC  

okay

2018-11-05 02:04:09 UTC  

nah it's cool, I didn't specify

2018-11-05 02:04:58 UTC  

Im typing so much the guys in my discord are asking can the Novel im writing be gluten Free. . "mr Smiley " Lazy general : mr smiley i cant see you reading a book i can see you eating the book

recycling works same way as making "new" uranium.
its only those heviest uranium particles that are most dangerous and that are used in nuclear reactors.

2018-11-05 02:05:48 UTC  

so from my understanding, the fuel rods go bad because there's not enough uranium left to sustain the reaction, but they're still radioactive

2018-11-05 02:06:03 UTC  

yes.

2018-11-05 02:06:20 UTC  

Thats basically it

2018-11-05 02:06:44 UTC  

seems to me like a shitty design if they only last a few years but I'm not an expert. Probably not too smart to put too much in or it will go critical

2018-11-05 02:06:51 UTC  

and they can be "recycled"
take those still actice and usable heavy uranium to new rods. and debleted uranium have other uses.

I'd rather invest more money into fusion tbh

2018-11-05 02:07:46 UTC  

I think I saw something recently about the first sucessful cold fusion, let me see if I can find it

2018-11-05 02:08:09 UTC  

WE need to go to mars find the Mass effect Relay . . And jump start our tech . . . . Lol ELON !!!

2018-11-05 02:09:10 UTC  

Today's video. The silent trump supporter still can't be counted.

2018-11-05 02:09:38 UTC  

it might have been a minute physics video or something

2018-11-05 02:09:39 UTC  

Correctly

2018-11-05 02:09:43 UTC  

but we already have perfectly safe nuclear reactors.
and i dont see any problems building more nuclear plants.

but of course if we get fusion working in some day its better idea.
but until that nuclear is best form of producing energy

2018-11-05 02:09:44 UTC  

The problem is that things are not as centralized as that.

2018-11-05 02:09:58 UTC  

Things matter on the state level now

2018-11-05 02:10:37 UTC  

So the silent Trump trap card won't be nearly as significant as in the presidential election.

2018-11-05 02:10:40 UTC  

why don't we take more advantage of geothermal energy?

2018-11-05 02:11:00 UTC  

like I'm sure people have tried to go down this path, we're not the scientists

2018-11-05 02:11:32 UTC  

I think we should focus on nuclear energy until something like fusion comes along.

2018-11-05 02:11:38 UTC  

but geothermal energy is the closest thing to free energy we have (yes I know there's no such thing as "free" energy but the earth has enough heat to sustain us)

2018-11-05 02:11:47 UTC  

geothermal has the same problem as hydro-electric

2018-11-05 02:12:04 UTC  

also, its not very clean, and is pretty dangerous

2018-11-05 02:12:04 UTC  

Stuff like solar panels and wind turbines are too circumstantial and just aren't that great overall.

2018-11-05 02:12:12 UTC  

what's the problem in question?

2018-11-05 02:12:18 UTC  

is it location specific?

2018-11-05 02:12:30 UTC  

geothermal requires heat vents if i remember correctly

2018-11-05 02:12:44 UTC  

either that or a really deep hole

2018-11-05 02:12:45 UTC  

could you theoretically make a heat vent?

2018-11-05 02:12:53 UTC  

I'm sure you could

2018-11-05 02:12:57 UTC  

you want to drill down to the mantel?

2018-11-05 02:13:06 UTC  

yeah that's kind of hte problem

2018-11-05 02:13:15 UTC  

You could tap into preexisting vents

2018-11-05 02:13:15 UTC  

technically you can, but at that point, you might as well be a nuclear reactor
