This document discusses nuclear pollution from radioactive elements released during nuclear fission. Nuclear pollution can come from nuclear power plants, experiments, transportation, weapons, and accidents. It affects living organisms by causing diseases like skin conditions and damage to reproductive organs. Proper maintenance of nuclear facilities, safe transportation, storage of waste, and limiting nuclear activities can help control and reduce nuclear pollution. As an example, the 1986 Chernobyl disaster in the Soviet Union dispersed radioactive materials into the atmosphere during a safety test, contaminating a large area.

2. IntroductionNuclear Pollution happens when Radioactive element come into contact with other elements in environment & emits “Alpha & Gamma rays”(Short Wave Electromagnetic Rays) Which is serious threat to living organisms.

3. The Phenomenon of “Nuclear Fission” creates a nuclear pollution.

4. Due to “Nuclear Fission” 15% to 20% Nuclear Particles enter into “Stratosphere”.

5. Almost 5% Nuclear Particles enter into “Troposphere”.Nuclear fission

21. Extraction of radio active elements from nuclear waste.Example of nuclear pollution Chernobyl Disaster: On 26 April 1986, reactor four suffered a catastrophic power increase, leading to explosions in its core. This dispersed large quantities of radioactive fuel and core materials into the atmosphere and ignited the combustible graphite moderator. The burning graphite moderator increased the emission of radioactive particles, carried by the smoke, as the reactor had not been encased by any kind of hard containment vessel. The accident occurred during an experiment scheduled to test a potential safety emergency core cooling feature, which took place during the normal shutdown procedure. The accident raised concerns about the safety of the Soviet nuclear power industry, as well as nuclear power in general, slowing its expansion for a number of years and forcing the Soviet government to become less secretive about its procedures.
