Nuclear power plants use the nuclear fission reaction to produce electricity. What is the advantage of producing electricity by fusion reaction ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Nuclear fusion is not possible at ordinary temperature and ordinary pressure, but the advantage of fusion reaction over fission reaction is that the fusionable substance is not radioactive, so it does not give out any harmful radiations and the disposal of its waste is not difficult.
