I wonder what the radioactivity of these bricks is? Fly ash, depending on the origin of the coal, can have a high activity. In reply to: "Using coal residue to make a greener brick"

Sweden Account is Wrong
The author?s inclusion of the Swedish incident is alarmist and contains a huge error. The reactor that she mentions was shut down after its power supply was found to be inadequate for proper cooling to be maintained.

The assessment came from Lars-Olov Höglund, who said, ?Since the electricity supply from the network didn?t work as it should have, it could have been a catastrophe.?

He said without power the temperature would have been too high after 30 minutes and the reactor would have been damaged. Within two hours there would have been a meltdown.

The plant operator shut down the plant to prevent damage.
