About this product
Product Information
Managing nuclear power emergencies is significantly different from managing other types of emergencies, including fire, flood, and other disasters because nuclear disaster management requires special technical skills and a rigid protocol which outlines detailed steps and procedure before an evacuation announcement could be made. It was evident that the impacts from a nuclear power core-meltdown accident were immerse, irreversible, and inevitable, as evident by evaluating the three historic core-meltdown accidents, namely Three Mile Island in 1997, Chernobyl in 1986, and Fukushima Daiichi in 2011. The three options for minimizing the risks associated with NPPs are suggesting elimination of all NPPs in operation in the United States, transforming inevitable risks to evitable risks, and transforming the current radiological plan into an effective emergency management plan. Being the latter option is the only viable one, this book provides a comprehensive understanding on effectively managing nuclear power emergencies in the U.S. The book presents detailed analysis on effectively managing nuclear power emergencies. In an attempt to illustrate minimizing the risks, factual answers to the key questions surrounding managing nuclear disasters are outlined. What are the risks associated with the nuclear power plants (NPP)? What are the problems associated with managing nuclear power core-meltdown accidents in the three historic accidents? Where are the geographical locations of the 99 commercial reactors in the U.S? Who are those exposed to potential risks associated with the NPPs? How could a projection of radioactive plume dispersion pathway be carried out using a spatial computer code, such as the Radiological Assessment Systems for Consequence Analysis (RASCAL) in case of a core-meltdown accident? Where would the radioactive plume go given weather conditions? Who are more likely to be exposed to the high level radiation dose during the core-meltdown accident? What are the issues with the current radiological emergency plan?

- l***8 (71)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseIt wa bit disappointing that the seller wouldn't reply to my questions about why the description said 'used good' and not what was wrong with it and why not mint, & offering to 'accept an offer' but didn't so I ended up paying full price and taking a chance. However, the vinyl was dispatched immediately and arrived before its expected delivery date, and was packaged securely in 2nd hand shipper. The quality of the vinyl cover was nr mint and vinyl mint so did match the appearance and I am happy.Parcels, Parcels (#306058387511)
- 4***4 (645)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseHave brought from them before and as always, carefully packaged and quick delivery. The book condition is immaculate. However in the description they failed to mention the book is written in Dutch! For the £14.09 was a complete waste of money for me. Haven't contacted the seller about my disappointment as my friend is Dutch and will be the proud owner of it. My advice would be as pictures are vague and description is standard is to contact the seller if in doubt! Otherwise they are efficient.Engel von Arnhem: Erinnerungen an September '44, Horst, Kate ter (#305759699638)
- i***0 (6)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe vinyl arrived quickly and was packaged very well, exceeding my expectations. I appreciate the seller's care. While the listing noted that the item was used, a more detailed description of its condition would have been beneficial. I believe the price was fair for an item in very good condition, but the item received was of slightly lower quality than expected. Overall, I am satisfied and would recommend this seller.Honeymoon, Lana Del Rey (#306129930227)
