Nuclear Reactors 1366 - Argonne National Laboratory Is Working On Alternative Cooling Schemes For The Columbia Generating Station
The current fleet of commercial nuclear power reactors across the U.S. is cooled by water from a variety of sources. Rivers, lakes, and oceans are fed through systems that extract and dissipate heat from the reactor cores. However, the recent effects of climate change have been raising the temperature of bodies of water to the point where they cannot be used to cool reactors.
