Disadvantages of Atomic Energy: Although atomic energy has some positive side, it not possible to avoid its drawbacks. Sometime failure of reaction, by product, water pollution and releasing uranium are some of its back effects. Following drawbacks aware you about its bad effects: Water Degradation Atomic energy uses a lot of water to generate electricity. In reactors where water steam produces directly and the water flow in the center of reactor, if there is any leakage in fuel it will pollute the water. Removal of Byproduct When uranium reactors stop their working while producing atomic energy, a byproduct is released which is required to remove. Keeping byproduct led to pollution through leakages. Harmful for aquatic bodies and plants The byproduct released harms the life of underwater species and plants. Water steam once cool diluted in the environment but it's still harmful. Removal of abandoned reactors. There are number of reactors which are once used to produced atomic energy are not in working today. These are capturing a large amount of space and can be harmful for the surrounding. So, there should be removal of such unused reactors.
