Physics · Nuclear Fusion
Which statement best describes the inherent safety profile of a potential commercial nuclear fusion power plant?
- 1It relies entirely on heavy radioactive isotopes like Uranium-235 as its primary fuel resource.
- 2It operates using a critical chain reaction that can explode like a nuclear fission weapon if uncooled.
- 3It generates massive amounts of long-lived high-level radioactive waste similar to fission plants.
- 4It poses no risk of a runaway catastrophic meltdown because the reaction stops instantly if the plasma configuration is disrupted.✓
Correct answer
It poses no risk of a runaway catastrophic meltdown because the reaction stops instantly if the plasma configuration is disrupted.
