The computers of South Korea's nuclear plant operator were hacked in December 2014. The cyber attacks involved thousands of phishing emails containing malicious code, and information was stolen. [9] Nothing important was hacked at the plant, so the group was unable to threaten the operation of the reactor.
Thus, this reactor design is self-regulating, meltdown is impossible, and the design is inherently safe. From a safety point of view, the design leverages the technology used in the TRIGA reactor, which uses uranium zirconium hydride (UZrH) fuel and is the only reactor licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission for unattended operation.
On 19 November 2008, IAEA released a report [96] which said the Syrian complex bore features resembling those of an undeclared nuclear reactor and UN inspectors found "significant" traces of uranium at the site. The report said the findings gleaned from inspectors' visit to the site in June were not enough to conclude a reactor was once there.
Because of the location of the reactor head damage, such a jet of reactor coolant might have damaged adjacent control rod drive mechanisms, hampering or preventing reactor shut-down. As part of the system reviews following the accident, significant safety issues were identified with other critical plant components, including the following:
The hack was conducted in order to support the 2019 Hong Kong protests, amidst the Hong Kong police's siege of the city's Polytechnic University. They also brought up a possible peace plan first proposed by a professor at Inha University in hopes of having the Korean reunification and the five key demands of the Hong Kong protest being ...
Contact the business behind the account that’s been hacked – Once they are aware of the problem, they can halt any further activity, especially if it’s a financial account. They will likely ...
Incremental energy added to steam in the form of superheat can be converted to electricity with an efficiency of 50-60%, compared to ~30% for energy added to saturated steam in traditional reactors. [3] The disadvantage of superheating is that higher temperatures can lead to more corrosion and fuel element failures, making the reactor more ...
