Chernobyl

[Joe]

So I have became slightly concerned about Chernobyl again, this ruined plant was pretty much inactive for years but we may have kick started it again. Let me explain, the poor construction of the original casing had so many leaks that the water acted as a moderator to suppress neutron chain reactions. However the new covering is more water tight and hence less leaks, therefore we could see an increase in neutron chain reactions as the water starts to dry up.
To make things more complex the composition of this nuclear material is nothing like it once was as it’s been mixed with concrete, metals and other debris.
