  • Institute Lecture
    Institute Lecture Nuclear Fission Energy, a Sustainable and Environmental friendly option for electricity - Challenges Dr. Chaitanyamoy Ganguly, Retired Distinguished Scientist, Dept of Atomic Energy, Govt. of India & Former Head, Nuclear Fuel Cycle & Materials Section, IAEA, Vienna st Friday, 1 February 2013, Time: 5.00 PM, Venue: L-1, Lecture Hall Complex Abstract Nuclear power is a viable and proven option to meet the ever increasing demand of electricity in an economic, safe and sustainable manner without degrading the environment. Presently, 437 nuclear power reactors with total installed capacity of ~ 371 GWe, are in operation in 30 countries, generating some 14% of global electricity. Currently, nearly all operating nuclear power reactors in the world use zirconium alloy clad uranium oxide pellets, with 0.7 to < 5% U235 , as fuel and derive energy from the fission of U235, the only ‘fissile’ material in nature. The basic raw materials for nuclear fuels are natural uranium and thorium. Nuclear fuel cycle is a series of physical and chemical steps for processing natural uranium and thorium ores and making them suitable for use as fuel assemblies in reactor. In the back end of fuel cycle, the highly radiotoxic ‘used fuel’, containing actinides and fission products, is stored under water for a few years in a pool adjoining the reactor. Next, the used fuel is either transported to long term interim dry or wet storage facilities and then directly disposed in deep geologically stable repository in an ‘open’ fuel cycle or in ‘closed’ fuel cycle, subjected to reprocessing for recovery and recycling of actinides and separating and vitrifying fission products for final disposal in repository.

W. Talwalkar (1888 – 1982) (1902 – 1994) Inaugural Chairman Inaugural Secretary Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya (December 25, 1861 – November 12, 1946) Born in an educated orthodox Hindu family at Prayag (Allahabad) in 1861, Madan Mohan Malaviya has been recognized as an outstanding and noble son of India. His multifaceted personality made him, at the same time, a great patriot, an educationist with a vision, a social reformer, an ardent journalist, reluctant but effective lawyer, a successful parliamentarian and an outstanding statesman. Among Malaviyaji’s many achievements, the most monumental was the establishment of the Banaras Hindu University or Kashi Hindu Vishwavidyalaya. In the course of his lifetime Banaras Hindu University came to be known as a Capital of Knowledge acknowledged across India and the world. Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya created history in Indian education with this institution – the first of its kind in the country. He chose Banaras as the site, because of the centuries old tradition of learning, wisdom and spirituality inherent to the place. His vision was to blend the best of Indian education called from the ancient centres of learning – Takshashila and Nalanda and other hallowed institutions, with the best tradition of modern universities of the west.
