Q6+Chernobyl

Q.6 What measures have been put in place to stop it hapenning in the future?

After the explosion at reactor 4, the remaining three reactors at the power plant continued to operate. In 1991, reactor 2 suffered a major fire and was decommissioned. On September 17, 2007, it was announced that a new steel containment structure named the New Safe Confinement (NSC) would be built to replace the current aging buildings. The idea is to prevent the reactor from leaking radioactive material into the surrounding environment. The NSC is expected to be completed by 2013. The NSC was designed with a few goals in mind, some of the goals were: - To convert the destroyed ChNPP (Chernobyl nuclear power plant) Unit 4 into an environmentally safe system. - Reduce corrosion on the original shelter. - Reduce the chance of the Unit 4 reactor from collapsing - To deconstruct unstable structures safely.
