Nuclear power plants do not emit carbon dioxide

Temas: |

For any efficient power plant to function at its optimum level, cooling towers form an essential unit. They are used to transfer heat and cool the water. These towers are huge and can be up to 200 meters.

Nuclear power plants do not emit carbon dioxide in their operation. What you see coming out of the cooling towers is not smoke but water vapour.
