NUCLEAR FRIENDS FOUNDATION

FACEBOOK CONTEST

Nuclear Friends FoundationSupporting Clean, Sustainable Energy For Our Planet:

● Nuclear Friends Foundation (NFF) separates the facts from all the noise you hear about nuclear energy.

● Nuclear Friends Foundation (NFF) is focused on answering queries that you may have about this eco-friendly mode of power generation, busting myth surrounding it.

● Nuclear Friends Foundation (NFF) takes up the role of playing the catalyst between you and everything about nuclear energy.

● Nuclear Friends Foundation, a non-profit organization, is established with the objective of propagating true and eye-opening facts about nuclear energy and its myriad applications helpful to mankind.

● NFF offers an open platform to everyone who realizes the power of this modern form of clean and sustainable energy as well as its undeniable role in fighting global warming and the consequential climate change.

In a nutshell, NFF endeavours to create a strong base of nuclear friends by:

● Serving as a platform for all group segments of people;● Being an one-stop destination for all things nuclear;● Sharing facts about the undeniable merits of the nuclear power;● Being active on all major social media platforms as well.

#NuclearMilestone

● The Contest was about the milestones that nuclear energy has achieved in india as well as international. Participant or Contestants have to answer questions based on some of the notable events in the history of Nuclear Energy. As it was an step to make people aware of the history of Nuclear Energy.

● Obninsk Nuclear Power Station was built in the "Science City" of Obninsk, Kaluga Oblast, Southwest of Moscow. It was the first nuclear reactor that produced commercial electricity and first grid-connected nuclear power station in the world.

● Kudankulam Unit 1 was synchronized with the southern power grid on 22 October 2013. Unit-1 was operating at 73% capacity (680 MW) by April 2014. Unit 1 attained its maximum capacity of 1,000 MWe at 1:20 p.m. on 7 June 2014.

● Dr. Homi J. Bhabha was an Indian nuclear physicist, founding director, and professor of physics at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. Colloquially known as "Father of the Indian nuclear programme".

● Sellafield site measures 6 square kilometres with 10,000 employees at Sellafield Ltd. It is the Largest nuclear site in Europe. Nuclear fuel has been reprocessed at the Sellafield site for over 50 years. Reprocessing spent fuel allows 97% of this used fuel to be recycled back into new fuel.

#CompleteTheCycle

● #CompleteTheCycle was to remind people about our basic life cycle in our surrounding, which is getting affected due to heavy pollution and how necessary is to save our earth from getting more polluted. As a rise of demand of energy, we need more efficient power source which will be none other than Nuclear Energy.

● Denitrification is a microbially-facilitated process of nitrate reduction that ultimately produce molecular nitrogen (N2) through a series of intermediate gaseous nitrogen oxide products.

● Carbon Dioxide in Photosynthesis uses the energy from sunlight to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water. This glucose can be converted into pyruvate which releases adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. Oxygen is also formed.

● DENITRIFICATION ● CARBON DIOXIDE

Contest Post

● Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy, normally from the Sun, into chemical energy that can be later released to fuel the organisms' activities.

● Precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that falls under gravity. The main forms of precipitation are drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, graupel and hail.

● PHOTOSYNTHESIS ● PRECIPITATION

Contest Comments

Each question received a minimum of 300 comments. We kept the contest subject basic, which

everybody knew.

● Thorium has double the energy when compared to Uranium and also it undergoes nuclear fission, same as Uranium. India has abundant source of Thorium which is second highest in the world.

● Einsteinium has no uses outside research. It is highly used as research element due to its radioactivity.

● THORIUM ● EINSTEINIUM

● Uranium which is more used as a fuel in the Nuclear Power Plants. It does not release carbon emissions as it is the greenest form of energy and helps in reducing carbon prints.

● Actinium is used in medicine to produce Bi-213 in a re-usable generator or can be used alone as an agent for radio-immunotherapy for cancer patients.

● ACTINIUM ● URANIUM

Contest Comments

Each question had enormous response on facebook. By keeping the contest simple we were able

to involve large number of people in the contest, who were continuously engaged with the contest

over the period of 2 years.

Contest on Nuclear Friends Foundation

● The main aim of the contest is to educate people about nuclear energy and basic science.

● Nuclear power plants use “Nuclear Fission” (the process of splitting an atom in two). “Nuclear Fusion” (the process of combining atoms into one) has the potential to be safer but has not yet been developed to operate within a large power plant.

● Nuclear energy comes from Uranium, Thorium and Plutonium. Nuclear power plants generate energy without producing Co2 electricity.

● Nuclear energy is being used in more than 30 countries around the world and even powers Mars rovers.

● Contest on Nuclear Friends Foundation’s social media page educates people and removes myths about Nuclear Energy and spreads its presence all over social media platforms.
