Let’s look now at another kind of waste treatment that ZPE enables:
Disposal of nuclear waste
When we think of nuclear waste, we might initially think of the famous nuclear accidents
• Chernobyl (1986)• Fukushima (2011)
But every day, around the world, more than 430 nuclear reactors are at work,
And around 70 more are under construction
These nuclear power plants usually have difficulty finding a place to store their spent fuel rods
Which are full of uranium and/or plutonium, and very dangerous
As a result, the most common solution is just to store the dangerous rods on site
This usually works OK… until there is an accident
While accidents happen very rarely, the problem of nuclear waste is extremely serious
We know from chemistry that the radioactive elements in the spent fuel rods will continue to be dangerous for more than 10,000
years… in some cases, up to 250,000 years
While the risk of having an accident within any given span of 10 years or even 100 years is fairly small, how can we possibly predict
what will happen over the next 10,000 years?
The risk of an accident over a time span that long is actually quite large.
You might say, having many accidents over that time span is a certainty.
But now, ZPE gives us a good solution.
Remember how LENRs and plasmoid strikes were found to cause transmutation of elements?
Well now, scientists in Japan have discovered that this process works well on radioactive elements to transmute them from dangerous
isotopes to isotopes that are less dangerous, even harmless

Mitsubishi already has a patent on one such technology
This is a technology that is currently being tested at Fukushima
But even more importantly, it can be used at those >400 nuclear power plants worldwide which are currently waiting for a solution to
their nuclear waste problem
Let’s clean up those dirty nuclear fuel rods now!
Before an accident occurs and it’s too late.
