  • @dean It looks like a burn off flame to me. They have had ongoing hydrogen issues at unit 2. They injected nitrogen and did some venting previously. We saw what looked like this flame on TBS one night but it was blurry due to the distance and weather than night.

  • @ Shadow, I went back in this week after he said it was ok to go through with the knee surgery,,, he does have some concerns over me getting weak and as I become more active he wants me to check it and if I have the same thing then he probably will to the angiogram to be safe

  • @lilly.. the bright whitish lite seems like a flood light that turns on automatically... the other burning looking stuff seems like a fire as it's burning more orange colored. I'm thinking if there were sort of hydrogen there it wouldn't just flame but probably explode

  • @dean If they are pushing it out through a pipe with a burner like they do for methane? It looks similar to that.
    by lillymunster 1/26/2012 2:40:56 AM

  • @dean Good. Had angiogram last Nov, and nuclear stress test This Nov. All good, stents clear and BP good. 2cd class medical good for one more year. Going to see if I can catch up a little as we've been a little busy of late.

  • great to hear @ shadow
    by dean 1/26/2012 2:44:26 AM


  • @lilly.. most of those waste burners are burning methane I believe, the land refuge area here uses the methane to power a small power plant . .

  • @lilly.. please check gmail
    by dean 1/26/2012 2:47:44 AM

  • @dean yes. I have seen them at waste plants and oil refineries.

  • @lillymunster , the "burning" of hydrogen seems different from methane: www.taycoeng.com

  • @peter.. hi
    by dean 1/26/2012 3:06:46 AM

  • There were some people worried whatever was going on was an uncontrolled fire. It seemed controlled at least to me it did.

  • how to convert a car to burn hydrogen as fuel to increase mileage

  • NRC pulls a "Ft. Calhoun" on TVA reactors. Says insufficient flood protection is good enough www.tennessean.com for now
    by lillymunster 1/26/2012 3:14:04 AM

  • Looking at this document www.rexresearch.com hydrogen burning needs to happen in a chamber. www.rexresearch.com

  • ...controlled burning that is, unlike the Hindenburg, ;)
    by Peter 1/26/2012 3:22:37 AM

  • @lilly.. that sounds like something they would come up with ... sigh
    by dean 1/26/2012 3:23:13 AM

  • @Peter yes that would be uncontrolled...

  • @dean the hindenberg or a gas burner?
    by lillymunster 1/26/2012 3:23:48 AM

  • @lilly.. the car could be named the hindenberg

    Secrecy in Japan’s lack of records about nuclear catastrophe: antinuclear.net
    by bo 1/26/2012 4:10:39 AM

  • @lilly and bo.. I'm affraid that the best thing India and China will learn from past nuclear experience is to keep things secret, say every thing is running smoothly and show how happy the people are to have power finally
    by dean 1/26/2012 4:12:46 AM

  • @lilly... I had read that 83% of the power plants in Japan were shut down.. how are they surviving? @ bo
    by dean 1/26/2012 4:13:21 AM

  • @dean 93% and so far just fine. No blackouts. I don't hear people talking lots about power saving right now so I don't know if it has become common or if things are eased up a bit ? there were some articles and posts about staying warm at the beginning of winter.

  • This is all that is still running after Shimane closes on the 27th. Out of 54 reactors
    Kansai Electric – Takahama No.3, 870 MW – Planned maintenance from February 20, 2012

    Tokyo Electric – Kashiwazaki-Kariwa No.6, 1,356 MW – Planned maintenance from March 10, 2012

    Hokkaido Electric – Tomari No.3, 912 MW - Planned maintenance from April-May 2012
    by lillymunster 1/26/2012 4:16:45 AM

  • @dean no one here is even talking about it. No one seems to have noticed. It is a news story here, just like there, but there is no measurable effect. Of course many Japanese homes are heated with gas, but still many are heated with electricity.
