16:45 The Loviisa Nuclear Power Plant is still in operation in 2020, with the 2 Soviet-built reactors. Together they produce about 8 terawatt hours of electricity per year, which is roughly 10% of Finland's annual electricity production. The reactors are licensed to operate until 2027 and 2030, and will probably continue to work even beyond that.
I assume the individual pressure tubes are easy to change out, so you don't have to deal with neutron embrittlement which is actually the driver behind the lifespan limits of PWRs and BWRs with their giant steel casting/forging reactor cores. Actually, I believe the Russians have recently developed a technique of annealing the reactor vessel to relieve the neutron embrittlement and extend the operating life of PWRs and BWRs.
На основе действующего рабочего проекта РБМК были попытки создать канальные реакторы типа РБМКП-2400 и РБМКП-4800 с прямоугольной конфигурацией активной зоны (габариты: 7×7×27 метров) и более интенсивным перегревом пара (до 600 °С). P.S. Оптимистическая картина интенсивного развития атомной энергетики была очень сильно подорвана и заторможена Чернобыльской аварией...

It doesn't if operated within its normal limitations like the ones still being used in Russia. You seems like a victim bent on seeing only the imaginative negativity of the western propaganda.
Não dá pra negar que o projeto do RBMK tinha uma ótima vc relação custo-benefício, porém algumas modificações eram necessárias para evitar o desastre de 1986. Modificações essas que só foram implementadas depois do acontecido.
english subtitles are wrong: the water-water reactor type is shortened to WWER - not VVER ... but even english documentaries get it wrong calling a WWER reactor a VVER one ... is it really that hard to get it right?
Both acronyms are considered correct however in English W makes a different sound than Russian W (B in cyrillic). Russian W sounds more like V (as in Volume) and you pronounce the reactor type as vodo-vodyanoi energeticheski reaktor. That's why I decided to use V in the Russian video. The VVER annotation is even used officially by Rosatom, I think people who designed those reactors get it right after all. ;) rosatom.ru/en/rosatom-group/engineering-and-construction/modern-reactors-of-russian-design/
@@ForgottenChornobyl very much thank you for that explanation I wasn't aware that vver is also considered "valid" - as someone from germany, where w and v are as similar as in russian (btw: I had russian as my 2nd language - and although I forgot quite a lot over the past decade (simply as I didn't had someone to speak it with) I still know the basics and still can read the cyrillic alphabet (it's like riding a bycicle - once learned it's a skill for the rest of you life) - hence I'm aware about that there is no "v" in russian) I always thought using "v" in languages in which water is spelled with a "w" to an error well deserved respect for that reply - +like +rep #You'reImpressive

@@ForgottenChornobyl I can only speak for my generation (90s): the time I was in school english was the first foreign language in any type or form of school - which, at least to my knowledge, is still true today - so, anyone born from 90 on does get some years of english in school - as for anyone older: depends on which part of germany you lived while you was in school: in east germany there only was german and russian - end of story - but in west germany it gets a bit more complicated: as west germany was split between the brits, the us and the french depend in which sector you lived you could have learned either british english, american english, or french - so, for anyone born before 90 there's a majority of people never learned english at all
I believe the film was released before the accident, but I couldn't find the exact date anywhere. Or the propaganda just ignored it, as usual. Pozdrawiam! :)
I've heard the Pacific consists of quite some water and can handle this minor pollution with only slightly radioactive tritium like a champ. Sellafield and La Hague pump about double the amount of tritium everyday into the English Channel.
@@zabdas83 wish I could get my hands onto some high grade coke, but Im not joking. The reprocessing of burnt fuel elements produces a lot of weak radioactive water, with mostly short living isotopes. This water get's dumped into the sea via pipeline(which is not illegal). Otherwise all nuclear reprocessing plants would need huge tanks on shore(for rad. water storage) which would be much more problematic to keep safe.
@@Squilliam-Fancyson Fukushima is different though, we're talking about a reactor meltdown/explosion/failure, therfore the 'spill' going into the Pacific is much worse?

Can it even be decomissioned without replacement reactors? Finland is already depending on import of electricity, right?

I can swear it will go boom some day,like Chernobyl
The Loviisa NPP is being converted to being able to run on Elk-meat meatballs.
The background instrumental is soothing, i wonder if there are any source of the soundtrack

Watching this has a big fever dream vibe to it. It's interesting, though. I see this is a 1986 copyright, but was it before or after 'the event?'
I was wondering the same...
Seriously? You watched the video? It's pretty clear at what point this documentary was made imo.
Chernobyl got memory-holed in the making of this film. Wonder why? ;)
Awesome video, thank you.
