520 $aCommercial Nuclear Power contains the results of worldwide scientific studies, industrial site visits, and factual perspectives on the application of industrial safety techniques and the maturity of scientific advances. Featuring several case histories and numerous international examples, it offers significant insights into regulatory, design, and operating practices in the industry and will help facilitate better societal perceptions about the need for nuclear facilities and the associated risks for humans and the environment.
520 8 $aCoverage includes: a forecast of the international demand for electricity and projection of carbon emissions from conventional fuels; types of energy sources available to produce alternatives to large carbon emissions that are accelerating global warming through the "greenhouse effect"; studies of past loss-prevention practices and accidental occurrences; lessons learned and emerging trends in the industry; and insights on how to apply both the results of investigations of accidents in facilities and the lessons others have learned through their mistakes in order to prevent future disasters.
