Unlocking Power of the Atom at Tarapur Nuclear Power Plant...
I was lucky to have internship opportunity in Kaiga Nuclear power plant, Karnataka , also when i was there one of unit was shut down due to which we got lucky to go inside control room , Near Alternator omg it was awesome experience cant describe in words , & one thing i observed was each & every employee was skilled i mean never seen so much skilled employees in any energy sector , Just got chills by watching this video.
How did you get the internship? Is there any special exam for it?
@@travelworld2738 My friend father is working as scientific officer , thru him we got opportunity , der will be no exam but any reference or people u know who is working der would help u get opportunity
Nice anna
You r really bro... I was working in thermal power plant but want to see hydro,gas & nuclear power plant.. hope u got great experience...
Did you see the spent nuclear fuel pool? That would be the first thing i will see if i get a chance to visit
Humble brothers are running these plants and helping us to live in comfort.
True
Great Job India! You are doing a fantastic job in Nuclear Power. I hope that my country (USA) will get over the unfounded fear of nuclear energy and once again build more power plants. Nothing else makes so much sense. The current power plants were designed so long ago I am sure that a safe solution is now feasible. I was particularly impressed with the process of refueling while in operation and keeping the plant running for long periods of time. We could do that too, if we just would. Keep up the good work my Indian friends.
No you can't.
It's not possible to dump nuclear waste. You need electricity to control the spent nuclear waste drums. More plants means more waste.
Thanx my bro :)
Look up the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant in the USA
Cuz indian people have to deal with many problems so we don't have time for nuclear protesting shit.
That's the reason there are nearly no protests for using Nuclear energy
It's a copy of a Canadian design. Far advanced from most of the American designs. Perfect for breading fuel, can be fueled with multiple fuels and used to make radioisotopes
I’m very impressed. This documentary gave me a huge new appreciation for all engineers and operators who work on nuclear plants.
The humbleness of our scientists is amazing. Huge respect for them 👏👏👏
It's called humility, not humbleness
they will obviously be humble when they are paid in pennies
Patrick EH I am not sure if you saw the complete video but towards the end of the show they did mention about using Thorium as a stage 3 fuel. After US India is the only country which has the highest research paper publication on thorium and Tarapur is the only facility in the world where all three stage reactors(U235,U238,Th232) are functioning together. Also India has it's first commercial fast reactor running making it the worlds most advaced nation in this field of nuclear science, India had presented it's latest design for their next generation thorium reactors back in 2014 which would take care of 30% of India's energy needs by 2025 (40% from renewal) and also it was the only country that had shown full support and was first of the signatories of the Paris Climate Aggrement.
Also India has already started working on the long term plans to use nuclear fusion as it's future source of energy, and guess where is it getting Healium 3 for it? The moon! yes India (and also China) are looking towards mining moon for Healium3 that would fuel the nation practically for thousands of year. All this coming from a country that was a British colony not long ago suffering degradation, been looted and wealth plundered off it's shore to the "Developed" and "Civilized" country of Great Britian for 200 years so much so by making one of the richest country in the world when britain arrived to it's shore (24% of world GDP) to one of the poorest (2% of world GDP by the 1950) when they left.
So yes, energy for the future is what India is aiming for! Hope this helps! 😊
bitsnpieces bullshit...India doesn't have any substantial research or technology except big mouthed politicians and self glorified scientists who are eating out public fund by fooling public.
Thanks for having interest on my country
@@donvalleyblu611 you shut up you don't know anything thorium was discovered in india do n't you know that
Ankamtilnei Bekungbul They did build the railways but it wasn’t for our Benefit, in fact the railways were built by the British so they could transfer the materials from the hinder lands to the seashores so they could steal our resources more effectively and efficiently. There was no effort made to match supply to demand and might I add many countries have invested in the railways without having to be colonised in order to do so. So I would suggest you to stop licking the boot of the englishmen and get your head out of your ass and just appreciate what we have built if not then don’t say anything.

It certainly is "a knowledge". Language is a skill, just like any other fields. Usually engineers focus on learning their profession, rather than language, though.

Civilisation’s rejection of Nuclear power was a massive mistake, and the environment has payed dearly for it as we continue to rely on fossil fuels for our electricity
It all went South when Nixon cut funding for stage 2 of the MSRE (Molten Salt Reactor Experiment) because he needed votes in southern California for more high pressure water reactors. Also MSRs would be no good at making bomb goodies like Plutonium.
Stuff like Fukushima and Chernobyl scared people off it.
I have been to this plant few years back...it's really amazing place..

Great show! Love my Indian sisters and brothers.
Anchor has good knowledge of the basics.
it is very very surprising to know that how much advanced is our nation to create such commplicated technologies.
Your nation didn't create the technology.
@@TheChrisey Oh yeah? Because as far as I know, after 1974, India was under an embargo and the TAPS units 3 and 4 shown in this documentary are IPHWR-540 reactors that have been designed by India. You know its a bit rich to tell a country that has nuclear weapons, a nuclear submarine program, a fusion reactor program and a working fast breeder reactor that they did not create those technologies. Get your head out of the sand.
@@death_parade 👍
@@death_parade stop chest thumping and accept the facts India didn't create this technology this is technology transfer from Canada and Russia .Stop being an idiot
@@VKP-i5i I gave you the facts. Neither Canada nor Russia gave us technology to produce Nuclear Weapons. Neither did they help us make the Fusion Reactors we have. You sound like the kind of guy who doesn't know the first thing about technology and R&D in general. People like you don't know the basic difference between know-how and know-why. No wonder you think of my words as "chest thumping".
.
Let me take you into another world then: Space Launch Vehicle Propulsion. You will argue in that sphere that the Indian Vikas engine is just a tech transfer of French Viking. That the Indian CE-7.5 engine is just a tech transfer from Russian KVD-1 and that Indian SCE-200 is just a tech transfer from Ukrainian RD-810. Right? So do tell me if India has only ever "imported" rocket engine technology, how the fcuk did we create the CE-20 engine? Which foreign nation transferred which technology for that?
this has to be the best doc on nuclear power i have seen. great work. also congrats to India for their design, planning and operating skills on show here. simply wonderful.
Looks like a completely modern display panel compared to USA reactors.
Its best to interview the employees in Hindi and then dubbed into English. That way the employees can express themselves better.

so much privileges, I wish I had.
India should start working on thorium based plants which gives more energy and are much safer than nuclear
Thorium is also nuclear energy only, idiot
What I meant was it's much safer to produce energy thn current nuclear reactor's. I know it's a part of radioactive elements just like uranium.Thorium undergoes a series of nuclear reactions until it eventually emerges as an isotope of uranium called U-233, which will readily split and release energy next time it absorbs a neutron. Thorium is therefore called fertile, whereas U-233 is called fissile.The Th-U fuel cycle does not irradiate Uranium-238 and therefore does not produce transuranic (bigger than uranium) atoms like Plutonium, Americium, Curium, etc. These transuranics are the major health concern of long-term nuclear waste. Thus, Th-U waste will be less toxic on the 10,000+ year time scale.
After seeing chernobyl series i respect electricity
😅🤣risk bohot hai
My keralite friend informed me that in the past, the British/Americans took away HUGE amounts of thorium ore sand in the guise that it was required for their ships ballast !!!
Ask your friend in which year this happened.
@@death_parade it's happened in 2016 in eastern coast of India, without any reporting. Hope that is for our own research and developments.
@@gobimurugesan2411 At this stage, I would be surprised if it wasn't.
I am also from Kerala.Now also monazite is illegally mined and exported. Guess what it's not only the source of Thorium but also the source of 17 rare earth elements.Yes the same rare earths china stopped supplying which lead to rare elements scarcity recently. And India was top producer of RE till 1960. After that only china made big strides through an even rich mineral called bastnesite or something like that.If India wishes,it can become a leader in rare earth elements and in that way many electronic and clean energy companies which use RE in its manufacturing will start base in India.
well video had nothing to do with thorium but I.wish to see thorium reactors soon since interestingly India has the world's largest reserve of thorium and just imagine if we manage to build and export thorium and it's technology ...we will change the history of power generation since thorium is safer and more productive then uranium
Ankit tiwari, It is a race for the future of Thorium Reactors which could be exported through the world. Less expensive Modularized Thorium Reactors could be a game changer of safer electrical and thermal generators. Desalination and Hydrogen Production, and lower infrastructure costs and lower carbon emissions could be the product of Thorium Reactors.
The nuclear reactor shown in video is IPHWR-540. which is Indian made.

I remember I was in class 10th, went to an All India Inter-AECS Debate Competition, back then in 2022, and it was me and my ex. We were lucky enough as the principal of AECS Tarapur issues us a site visit permit. Surely it was an educating experience, if anyone has been there, you'd know the small lecture hall reserved for new candidates, radiation exposure unit, the suits made of lead, the theoretical portion that they teach, and the models that was made to show how the reactor's cooldown process happens. The best part was when they took us into the actual nuclear reactor where work was still going on, but I was unfortunate enough, cause the competition was over anyways and we had to leave for the upcoming train as soon as possible...
Thanks usa for this plant
No this is 🇮🇳
One thing I notice about these videos at least the ones I have seen regarding the spent fuel pool, is that I haven't seen an explanation as to why they are used. I do know the purpose, but it can be helpful to others if the explanation is made that the radiation decreases a lot in the period they are in the spent fuel pool. It is not because they are just putting it in a low cost place and it is 'discarded' and ignored there.
India's first nuclear power plant...👍👍

Looks like the production of warheads Plutonium and Tritium for hydrogen bombs is in full swing there. These types of reactors are used for that.
We have dedicated reactors for that weapons production. These ones are under IAEA safeguards.
excellent vid - thanks for this - very informative (for us laymen!)
It amazes me how afraid americans are about nuclear power when coal, oil, and natural gas put out far more pollutants than any nuclear power plants. We've yet to have a single MAJOR radiological event in either use or transport.
Three Mile Island was what again?
I agree about the need for more nuclear, but let us not pretend that USA has had no major radiological event.
@@death_parade death toll? Land rendered uninhabitable? Had great potential for disaster, but I think folks blow it out of proportion. Sl1 was worse.
@@tylerkinley268 Yeah, but it is still a Level 5 disaster as per the IAEA scale.
I don't understand how this deals with thorium, but nice video.
GE does not design or build thorium reactors, only the more dangerous reactors are what they enjoy creating like the really dangerous reactors in Japan that will eventually kill and sicken many people and destroy a hell of a lot of healthy fish in all the oceans of this planet and the people who depend on them for food.
G. Wayne This video had nothing to do with thorium, but was labeled thorium.
You clearly don't understand how risk works, but that's okay. You also don't understand the research done after Fukushima, but I doubt you read any of the primary scholarly literature before forming your opinion. Also I think their PRISM reactor is better than thorium anyways. It's like comparing big rigs to a hummer, they both have different advantages.
*It wasn't labeled with thorium, I was thinking of a different video. But it was posted by "Thorium Energy" which I enjoyed.

First of all I would like to know you all who are raising questions about Indian English :
In India we do't speak english because this is not our Native language ,we have lots of beautiful language for speak and make converstaions . just like western people can not speak a single line in Hindi ,Marathi,Tamil,Telugu (Indian Languages).
However due to our talent we have managed to speak multiple language including English but i do't think any one of western country even speak indian language with such proficiency .
Second thing : Dear all we understand your pain for stealing your tech jobs from Local Market ,yes we did because we are capable enough and will assure you all we will steal tech jobs from western countries in upcoming years too ,sorry for that you westerns are really very weak in maths even i have doubt anyone of you can solve a simple discrete mathematics problem .
Anyways here we go .
prashant shukla what the fuck? it so random!
prashant shukla... you are right... they are very weak in all the subjects... that is maths, physics, biology, chemistry, politics etc.
I agree with you bro but I have a different opinion over it... The reason that made us weak in subjects like phy, Che, bio,mat is we are not supposed to study our subjects for marks instead we should learn and get experienced with what we Learn that too only based on once own talent
prashant shukla dude there are lots of people who speak good English in India . I speak only English and not Hindi . that doesn't make me any less Indian
Eric Rodrigues
Alright just read once my comment and try to catch my point.
You can speak good English fine but it doesn't mean most of people speak English well .we all have native language and one more thing if any Indian can fluent in English it doesn't mean his/her native language is English .although this is a plus point but not necessary .

🤦♂️ u people, India have updated its system. Now we use modern days reactor and han we doesn't use Uranium we use Thorium now
You probably have no idea about the 3-stage Nuclear Program of India. No idea about Indian Breeder Reactor Technology. No idea how little radioactive waste is produced in India and how much of it is recycled. No idea about the painstaking research is nucleotide separation techniques being developed to further lower the amount of nuclear waste and make it safer for ultimate disposal. I don't fault you for it. Just read about these topics and you'll understand who seriously India is solving the waste management problem and how it has already solved the majority of it simply by focusing on its 3-stage program that recycles spent fuel.

Yet, I have to agree, the advancements in technology brings me pride for humanity, then your hate-speech help me realize that people think it's all about being better than the other.. How about america has about 5,600 nukes.. yay, you have 36 power plants.. this argument could go back and forth forever because neither is better than the other.
Different region's of the world with different resources for better or worse..

BharatNT2IE touché
This type of reactor was innovated in the west though... so... how is the West jealous of something we built... You did see the beginning where they said that GE America gave them the technology? And also this is an outdated CANDU reactor... Canada has ones that produce double the energy.... those are just facts.
Do you know that nobody knew about the american land before Columbus discovered it?? (Forget about the native Americans) And he did it while searching for a sea route to India and Asia for trade purpose! So because of India existed at that time, USA is standing on its feet today with 5600 Nukes which are pretty much useless! But now nobody cares why the land of Americas came to the light originally. So why the hell should we care what General Electronics did or something bla bla bla............
1400 megawatts. That's OVER 1.21 gigawatts!!!

Loolz How dump you are do you think it is so easy to copy the highly expensive reactors?? It doesn't matter of they get drawings what matters is the technology. LMAO 🤣
@@philipsnimesh Really dude? India doesn't have nuclear technology? Sheesh, I guess Indians stole the designs of IPHWR-700, AHWR-300, FBTR, CLWR-B1, PFBR, FBR-600, etc right? Can you at least tell me which designs are these reactors a copy of? Shouldn't be hard, its not like a lot of countries have the capability to design their own reactors.
.
Honest advice, grow a brain. Its a bit rich to tell a country that has created anti-satellite missiles, hypersonic SCRAMJET missiles, nuclear weapons, quantum entanglement communication, GaN based AESA radars, etc that it doesn't have original R&D. These are technologies that countries don't give to each other. Yet India has somehow demonstrated each of them. If all we really did was "steal drawings", we wouldn't have demonstrated these technologies would we?
Wow... India Biggest power plant
Scientists are the are superheroes with superpowers and ethical mindset 👍🏻 great🙏🏻
Focus Fusion from LPP Fusion using pB11 fuel will become cheaper than ALL other forms of electricity production!
So the reason they use yellow lights is so that if there is spent fuel some where where its not supposed to be they will see the cherinkov radiation/
No. The Cherenkov radiation (CR) is generated only when the spent fuel is underwater -- because the electrons (& other particles, maybe) are emitted at a velocity greater than the velocity of light in water (which is approx. 3/4 x speed of light in vacuum). The speeding electrons create a "shock-wave" in the water, analogous to that of a supersonic plane, which leads to the radiation (analogous to a sonic boom). The electron velocity is lower than that of light in air, so no CR is observed unless it is underwater (or similar optical substance).
i got a bit of a love-hate relationship with nuclear power, on one hand when they work right (which they do a vast majority of the time) they are amazing pieces of technology and human ingenuity, but when they go wrong they go really wrong really quickly and we don't yet have any technology to clean up radiation (yet) so there is a kind of absoluteness about the fate of the land and water around these plants when they do go wrong
Well, we do spend an inordinate amount of time and effort in trying to make them as safe as possible. (Don't say Chernobyl, nobody made any such effort in that case).
But even with Chernobyl and Fukushima if you amortize the casualties over the amount of low-carbon electricity generated, nuclear comes out as one of the safest forms of energy.
Splendid!!😍😍
Funny how on internet so many are so quick to insult others without knowing who they are insulting or what they are talking about ..I work for the DOE in nuclear power and am an engineer since 1982.
In 1972 to keep the balance of power atoms for peace nonsense Nixon authorized setting up Pakistan with Nuclear power and science since Soviet Union did the same for India then.
We made the same mistake with North Korea in 1990s when Clinton authorized construction of a reactor there so they would "behave"...Maybe research more before you respond like a ignoramus .שלום
motorhead we got our Nuclear, not mainly from Soviet but from Canada ,Candu & Soviet didn't provide a shit, no superpower wants to have their sphere of influence get disturbed if they build nuclear weapons, so as so they wud eventually take independent foreign policy decisions & China provided help to Pak & North Korea in building Nukes , not USA thought US knew it , but remained mum
If you know a little bit of international tensions then you can very well see which of the three countries you mentioned are using nukes........and one more thing........Dr.Homi Bhabha, an Indian scientist was close to develop an indigenous reactor, with new technology back in the 60s or 70s.......and the CIA assassinated him for no reason . This is confessed recently by a former CIA official
What a great documentary. How come I am seeing this in 2021
That looks like a CANDU reactor.
+leerman22 Indeed, they have worked together...
Thorium Energy
I've calculated one fuel bundle is around 1,000,000KWh of electricity. They said a bundle was 20Kg and I assumed 33% turbine efficiency.
leerman22 I think they mention how much energy there is in one bundle when the journal holds it or there around. Look it up!
Thorium Energy
That's what I did. Got around 0.6% total theoretical energy in the uranium used. That is pretty close to Kirk Sorensen's estimate of CANDU burnup.
Amazing that so little mass can convert even less mass into so much energy!
The best documentary I had ever seen by NG
wow.. loved it.
I live in Tarapur.❤️
I didn't find any problem in their english
