Reactor Safety

Reactor safety involves practices and systems designed to prevent accidents in nuclear power plants. It ensures that nuclear reactions are controlled, accidents are minimized, and, if issues occur, they are contained quickly. Key safety features include multiple layers of safety controls, emergency cooling systems, and robust containment structures to prevent the release of radiation. Continuous monitoring and strict regulations help operators respond promptly to potential problems. Overall, reactor safety aims to protect people, the environment, and plant workers by ensuring nuclear energy is generated securely and responsibly.
