Raison d'etre

Why was the reactor decommissioned? Why was it built in the first place, power or plutonium? Ottawakismet (talk) 23:23, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Number of employees

It would be useful to have more information on numbers and types of employees at these facilities = how much did they hire county employees? New paths to work? effect on county economy?Parkwells (talk) 18:36, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong statement on moderators

"Several such moderators have been suggested, including carbon dioxide as in the UK Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor, liquid metals including sodium or lead as in various breeder reactors, and heavy water."

This statement is wrong. CO2 in the UK AGR is the coolant; the moderator is graphite. Sodium and lead are not moderators, they are selected as coolants in fast reactors just because they do not moderate neutrons. Fast reactors (the breeders mentioned in the statement) are unmoderated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.83.153.218 (talk) 19:30, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
