18:40 Israel may clean radioactive nuclides from Chernobyl
The Zone of Alienation around the Chernobyl nuclear reactor may be cleaned from dangerous radioactive nuclides, reports the “Cursor” information agency.
An experimental setup dealing with processing of radioactive nuclides will start working in the north of Israel on March 15. The authors of the new technique –– scientists from an Israeli company “Technien” — have been working together with Russian colleagues.
Admittedly, green activists are against the launching of the setup: "They are dealing with a technology that has been tested only in Russian laboratories.
We are afraid that dangerous substances might influence the local population”, — said a representative of the environmental organization of the Israeli city of Karmiel.
