What is the danger of nuclear leakage to people?

Nuclear contamination refers to radioactive contamination caused by nuclear leakage or even ** due to various reasons. It has a large range of hazards, extremely serious damage to the surrounding organisms, a long duration, and complex after-treatment dangers.

On April 25, 1986, a nuclear accident occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the former Soviet Union, when the concentration of nuclear fuel leaked was as high as 60, and until the reactor was mothballed 10 days and nights after the accident, the radioactive elements were released in excess of the amount. It took three days after the accident for nearby residents to be evacuated, but in those three days, many people have been contaminated with radioactive materials. Two people died on the spot in this accident, and by 1992, more than 700o people had died from the nuclear contamination of this accident.

The radioactive contamination caused by the accident spread over an area of 150,000 square kilometres in the former Soviet Union, where 694,500 people lived.

As a result of the accident, a 30-kilometre area around the plant was designated as a quarantine zone, residents were evacuated, crops were buried, and trees within 7 kilometres of the plant were gradually dying. In the next half century, farming and grazing will not be possible within 10 kilometers; The production of milk was banned within 100 kilometers for 10 years, after the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant that year. Not only that, but the whole of Europe was also shrouded in the quake of nuclear contamination due to the spread of radioactive soot.

Extraordinary radioactive fallout has been detected in neighboring countries, resulting in huge losses in the production of grain, vegetables, and dairy products. It is impossible to count the mental and psychological anxiety and fear caused by nuclear contamination.

In the seven years following the accident, 7,000 clean-up workers died, of which 1 3 were suicides. Forty percent of the workers who participated in the medical rescue suffered from mental illness or permanent memory loss. To date, of the 834,000 people who have taken part in the rescue efforts, 550,000 have lost their lives, 70,000 have become disabled, and more than 300,000 have died from radiation injuries.

The ocean is known as "the front line of national defense, the best channel, the treasure house of resources, the hometown of clouds and rain, and the cradle of life". However, it is being severely polluted, mainly by floating debris pollution and organic compound pollution, and the red tide and black current caused by it. Marine pollution directly leads to the deterioration of the marine environment and the reduction of biological species.

With the development of social economy and the continuous growth of population, more and more wastes are generated in the process of production and life. The vast majority of this waste ends up in the ocean, either directly or indirectly. When the discharge of these wastes and sewage reaches a certain level, the ocean is polluted.

Such as marine oil pollution, marine heavy metal pollution, marine thermal pollution, marine radioactive pollution, and so on. Polluted sea areas can cause damage to marine life, endanger human health, hinder human production activities, damage the quality of seawater use, and cause damage to the beautiful environment.

In recent years, with the continuous advancement and evolution of science and technology, people have discovered more and more available resources, especially nuclear energy. Nuclear energy can both destroy and benefit the earth, and the one that benefits the earth is the use of nuclear fusion.

and the energy produced by nuclear fission, which gives the Earth's interior a resource that can be used. But those of us who come to hear the big and small news are reporting on the occurrence of a nuclear leak in such and such a country, causing great harm to such and such an area. And the nuclear leak is uranium and other rare metals inside.

leak out, and its harm has the following points. <>

First, it will produce a lot of radioactivity.

Factor. First of all, the biggest harm of nuclear leakage is that some rare metals in it will cause a huge damage to the human body, because these injuries are unbearable in the human body, if the human body accidentally absorbs these rare metals into the body, it will cause water and sodium pig flow, the body's internal metabolic disorders, and soon after the body's internal metabolic disorders and birth shock, coma and other symptoms. Therefore, the harm of nuclear leakage is very huge.

2. It will cause an area within a radius of several kilometers to be uninhabited. So if there is a nuclear leak in one area, then the area is basically in a state of ruin. Nowadays, the earth has very little land to use, and if there is a nuclear leak in one area and other areas, then this area is basically in a no-man's land.

People are not suitable for here, and for other areas it will be more crowded. <>

3. It can also cause irreversible death to many animals and plants. Another reason is that if there is a nuclear leak, it could cause the death of both animals and plants in the area, and some animals are receiving this radiation.

After that, they may be preyed upon by humans, and these nuclear elements will enter a vicious circle in the human body. Therefore, nuclear leakage is a very scary thing, and many countries have not yet found a good way to deal with it and deal with it.

A nuclear leak is the leakage of radioactive elements from nuclear waste due to improper disposal, which is harmful as it causes cancer, and at the same time affects the local environment and causes the disappearance of biological species.

Nuclear leakage generally refers to the leakage of nuclear reaction materials in the nuclear power plant, these radioactive materials are exposed to the outside world, there will be very strong radiation, causing non-serious harm to all life around, such as deformity, carcinogenesis, genetic mutations cause a series of permanent diseases.

A nuclear leak is a nuclear reaction when the furnace fails, and then the radiation produced destroys other equipment, and eventually nuclear energy leaks out. Nuclear leakage is generally caused by the nuclear power plant itself, or by human factors, and of course, by natural and man-made disasters. The effects of nuclear leakage, which are mainly manifested in nuclear radiation.

Also known as radioactive substances, radioactive substances can be inhaled through breathing, ** wounds and digestive tract absorption into the human body, causing internal radiation, Y radiation can penetrate a certain distance to be absorbed by the body, so that people are injured by external radiation. The biggest long-term health risk is cancer.

Hazards of nuclear power plant leakage: ionizing radiation is produced in the decay of radioactive materials. It can break the chemical bonds between molecules and atoms in human tissues, which can have a serious impact on the body's important biochemical structure and function.

Our bodies try to repair these damages, but sometimes the damage is too severe or involves too many tissues and organs to be repaired. Moreover, the body is also likely to make mistakes in the natural repair process. The parts of the body that are most susceptible to radiation damage include gastrointestinal epithelial cells and those bone marrow cells that produce blood cells.
