Don’t know much about this.
When the Chinese were the last ones doing large scale nuclear bomb tests it was said the radioactivity from China circled the globe six times a year and was over the United States that many times as the atmosphere moved with the earth’s rotation.

Typical substandard commie facilities. Just like their airplanes, ships and missiles. Massive failure rates … and bridges, and dry wall, and dog food, and baby formula … And don't order chicken in the restaurants.

Great, another planned technology theft. Plantheft
To: Gen.Blather
maybe, like the biolab, France provided some proprietary info along with funding and, anticipating an imminent disaster this time, seeks an export license to cover their backside so they can distract attention from themselves and say, look, America approved!

I believe the fuel bundles were supplied by the French.

Thank you for the explanation.
Not a nuke engineer, but I am familiar enough with such designs that I can see big problems if the cladding is damaged.
For instance, can you remove the rods?

That’s the big question along with is the reactor shut down and how much damage is there?

Most freepers will tell you that radiation is good for you.

Time for some new movies geared toward gigantic monsters caused by atomic energy, like the black and white movies we watched as kids in the 50's.

Ross Denton: Rodney, can you please tell us, how big is the president?
Rodney Dangerfield: Oh, he’s a big guy, I’ll tell you that, he’s a big guy. I tell you he’s so big, I saw him sitting in the George Washington bridge dangling his feet in the water! He’s a big guy!
Rosalynn Carter: Oh my God! Jimmy! Oh God!
Rodney Dangerfield: Oh, he’s big, I’ll tell you that, boy. He’s so big that when two girls make love to him at the same time, they never meet each other! He’s a big guy, I’ll tell you!
Rosalynn Carter: Oh no! Oh Jimmy! My Jimmy!
Rodney Dangerfield: I don’t want to upset you lady, he’s big, you know what I mean? Why he could have an affair with the Lincoln Tunnel! I mean, he’s really high! He’s big, I’ll tell you! He’s a big guy!
Rosalynn Carter: No! No! No!
Ross Denton: Rodney, thank you very much. You can go.
Rodney Dangerfield: It’s my pleasure. He’s way up there, lady! you know what I mean? [ goes off, leaving Rosalynn Carter very upset ]

You are, of course, certain that those were the ones actually installed? And not sold elsewhere? And no cheap substitutes were used in place of the real ones?

That just simply has to be the very next step. Uberbats. Film at 11.

What the plant is releasing is dependent upon the type of fuel. If it’s uranium-238 then you can expect strontium, xenon, cesium, and other products. Winds can impact this as to can the amount that is released into the air. Time to get your iodine tablets when these radioactive products decay into more dangerous substances.

Westinghouse licensed the PWR technology to Frammatome long ago. Frammatome has developed it further. That’s what the Chinese are using. The leak means the zirconium cladding on the fuel rods has been damaged possibly by being exposed w/o being covered by water..
