The largest nuclear plant in the United States (Palo Verde) is in the middle of the Sonoran Desert and uses treated sewage output for cooling. People probably won’t stop urinating during a drought.
- cultofmetatron 4y agooh thats cool. I imagine all the pathogens are effectively killed for free
- speed_spread 4y agoIt also gives arguments to both sides, "nuclear is shit" and "nuclear is the shit"
- cratermoon 4y agokilled, or mutated?
- greyhair 4y agoI said the same just now, before I saw yours. I know it is going to get down voted, because I didn't append the '\s' tag, and it was a little to obscure. Cheers!
- ars 4y agoJust in case you are not joking, the sewage is not exposed to radiation. Water essentially can not become radioactive, and the sewage is used to cool water, not (directly) nuclear material. As you probably know all heat engines need a hot side (the uranium) and a cold side (the sewage) - the cold side is also those huge cooling towers you see while driving near a power plant.
