How much uranium do we really need

Journal Article Mclntyre, H C - Energy Int.; (United States)

Nuclear reactor and uranium fuel development, while able to adapt to some variation in their relative pace, need to maintain a minimum level of coordination in order to function. Recent uranium supply and demand projections to 1990 are examined to see how they correlate with estimates of the role nuclear power is expected to play in 2000 and 2020. Five independent projections of world growth in demand for nuclear power and uranium are compared and the discrepancies analyzed in light of the recent decline in public support for nuclear power and the slowdown of industrial expansion in the development countries.more »« less
Coal: how much do we really have. How long will it last

Journal Article Stefanko, R - Earth Miner. Sci.; (United States)

The U.S. Bureau of Mines estimates a demonstrated USA coal reserve base of 434 billion tons. Of this, 137 billion tons can be mined by surface mining (recovery 85 percent) and 297 billion tons by underground mining (recovery 50 percent). This translates to a recoverable net reserve of 265 billion tons. But this result could be changed (increased) by the development of new technology or new discoveries. On the other hand, the above reserves, which would last about 380 years at the present rate of usage, would last a much shorter time if the usage rate increased. (LTN)
Thickening and clarification: How much do we really know about dewatering?

Conference Healy, T W ; Boger, D V ; White, L R ; ...

The concentration of mineral slurries by conventional thickening devices is discussed. The role of additives on the compression of mineral slurries is also examined. Results for a range of flocculation conditions are presented. The compression of flocculated mineral slurries is found to be highly dependent on the fundamental particle-particle interaction forces and hence, the rheology of the particulate fluid. It is demonstrated that a detailed knowledge of the properties of both the mode of operation of the thickening device and of the solid/liquid interface is required for improvement in the rate and in particular, the extent of dewatering.
Do We Really Know how Much it Costs to Construct High Performance Buildings?

Conference Livingston, Olga V. ; Dillon, Heather E. ; Halverson, Mark A. ; ...

Understanding the cost of energy efficient construction is critical to decision makers in building design, code development, and energy analysis. How much does it cost to upgrade from R-13 to R-19 in a building wall? How much do low-e windows really cost? Can we put a dollar figure on commissioning? Answers to these questions have a fuzzy nature, based on educated guesses and industry lore. The response depends on location, perspective, bulk buying, and hand waving. This paper explores the development of a web tool intended to serve as a publicly available repository of building component costs. In 2011 themore »« less
Home Nighttime Light Exposures: How much are we really getting?

Journal Article Miller, Naomi J. ; Kinzey, Bruce R. - Lighting Design + Application

This article summarizes the results of a survey of lighting professionals about the light levels in their homes, as measured at the eye. This should correspond better to estimates of light exposure for light and health concerns. It includes measurements of light exposure from interior and exterior light sources, as well as reading paper tasks, watching TV, and light exposure from cell phones and electronic tablets. The survey results are a pilot study to learn about actual light exposures at night in homes.
