Description

Explore the critical lessons learned from the world's most significant nuclear incidents. This book compares the aftermath of the Chernobyl explosion with the Fukushima disaster in Japan. While Fukushima utilized containment structures to manage radiation, the lack of such measures in Soviet-designed reactors led to different outcomes. This text examines the specific safety deficiencies found in an entire class of reactors and investigates why five countries operating these units entered into international agreements. Part of the Routledge Studies in Environmental Policy series, this work provides a detailed look at the history of nuclear risk and the global efforts to close dangerous reactors. It is a necessary resource for those studying environmental policy, business history, and the technical evolution of nuclear safety standards.

Key Features
