596 페이지 - The author is at home in his subject, and presents his views in an almost singularly clear and satisfactory manner. . . . The volume is a valuable contribution to one of the most difficult, and at the same time one of the most important subjects of investigation at the present day.
68 페이지 - Effective measures can and should be taken at the national level and through international agreements to minimize the danger of the proliferation of nuclear weapons without jeopardizing energy supplies or the development of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.
63 페이지 - ... explosives can be derived. Plutonium is especially poisonous, and, of course, enriched uranium, thorium and other chemicals or metals can be used as well. We are now completing an extremely thorough review of our own nuclear power program. We have concluded that serious consequences can be derived from our own laxity in the handling of these materials and the spread of their use by other countries. And we believe that there is strong scientific and economic evidence that a time for a change has...
66 페이지 - ... their domestic nuclear powerplants to develop explosive capability. There is no doubt about it. India, which is basically a peaceful nation, at least as far as worldwide connotations are concerned, did evolve an explosive capability from supplies that were given to them by the Canadians and by us. And we feel that there are other nations that have potential capacity already for the evolution of explosives. But we are trying to make sure that from this point on that the increasing number of nations...
64 페이지 - US capacity to produce nuclear fuels, enriched uranium in particular, to provide adequate and timely supplies of nuclear fuels to countries that need them so that they will not be required or encouraged to reprocess their own materials. Fifth, we will propose to the Congress the necessary legislative steps to permit us to sign these supply contracts and remove the pressure for the reprocessing of nuclear fuels by other countries that do not now have this capability. Sixth, we will continue to embargo...
1283 페이지 - Except as otherwise provided by law, sums' appropriated for the various branches of expenditure in the public service shall be -applied -solely -to- the -objects -for -which they 'are- respectively made-,
64 페이지 - Obviously, the smaller nations, the ones that now have established atomic powerplants, have to have someplace either to store their spent fuel or to have it reprocessed. And I think that we would very likely see a continuation of reprocessing capabilities within those nations that I have named and perhaps others.
67 페이지 - ... standardization of powerplants, safety of people who live near them, proper siting considerations, the political objections to atomic powerplants themselves, the possible need for breeder reactors, the handling of spent fuel, the need or absence of a need for reprocessing the spent fuel, and international safeguards that will prevent the development of explosives. We are eager to cooperate as a nation which is a consumer and also a supplier. We want to be sure that where there is a legitimate...
228 페이지 - ... burned directly, while those with higher moisture content may have to be predried or fired with supplementary fuel, either of which requires expenditure of additional energy and lowers the efficiency of the process. The overall direct combustion efficiency of biomass used to produce electricity is '20 to 30 percent depending upon feedstock moisture content, and plant design. This efficiency is low compared to that of coal combustion plants, which is typically 35 to 40 percent.
63 페이지 - From my own experience, we have concluded that a viable and adequate economic nuclear program can be maintained without such reprocessing and recycling of plutonium. The plant at Barnwell, South Carolina, for instance, will receive neither Federal encouragement nor funding from us for its completion as a reprocessing facility.
