Removal of the nuclear waste allows decommissioning of Vinča's remaining reactor to be completed. [21] In 2012 the Law on Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety was adopted. It envisioned that within 10 years, that is by 2022, the waste from Vinča must be transferred to the permanent and safe depository location.

Examples include lethal effects to individuals, large radioactivity release to the environment, reactor core melt. The prime example of a "major nuclear accident" is one in which a reactor core is damaged and significant amounts of radioactive isotopes are released, such as in the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 and Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011.
Hanford’s B Reactor, the world’s first full-scale production reactor, is shown from the air in 1944. B Reactor also produced plutonium for the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, Aug. 9 ...
Criticality accidents are divided into one of two categories: Process accidents, where controls in place to prevent any criticality are breached;; Reactor accidents, which occur due to operator errors or other unintended events (e.g., during maintenance or fuel loading) in locations intended to achieve or approach criticality, such as nuclear power plants, nuclear reactors, and nuclear ...
Into Eternity is a 2010 Danish documentary film directed by Michael Madsen, [1] released in 2010. [2] It follows the construction of the Onkalo waste repository at the Olkiluoto Nuclear Power Plant on the island of Olkiluoto, Finland.

During a subcritical counting experiment, a power buildup went undetected at the Vinca Nuclear Institute's zero-power natural uranium heavy water-moderated research reactor. [9] Saturation of radiation detection chambers gave the researchers false readings and the level of moderator in the reactor tank was raised, triggering a power excursion ...
Pandora's Promise is a 2013 documentary film about the nuclear power debate, directed by Robert Stone.Its central argument is that nuclear power, which still faces historical opposition from environmentalists, is a relatively safe and clean energy source that can help mitigate the serious problem of anthropogenic global warming.
