Answer:
Nuclear fission is almost 8,000 times more efficient than traditional fossil fuels at producing energy. That's a lot of energy packed into a small space. Nuclear energy is more efficient, which means it uses less fuel to power the plant and produces less waste.
advantages:
-produces no polluting gases
-does not contribute to global warming
-very low fuel costs
-Low fuel quantity reduces mining and transportation effects on environment
-High technology research required benefits other industries
-Power station has very long lifetime
Disadvantages:
-Waste is radioactive and safe disposal is very difficult and expensive
-Local thermal pollution from wastewater affects marine life
-Large-scale accidents can be catastrophic
-Public perception of nuclear power is negative
-Costs of building and safely decommissioning are very high
-Cannot react quickly to changes in electricity demand
Explanation:
Yes Diesel engine have problem of knocking.
We know that knocking is phenomenon in which suddenly large amount of power generates this large amount of power will cause the failure of diesel engine.
Actually when one set of fuel inject inside the cylinder to burn with already compressed air (in general up to 10-15 bar) then this fuel does not burn complete and accumulate inside the cylinder.After that second set of fuel inject inside the cylinder then that one set of fuel burns with second set of fuel and produces large amount of sudden power for engine and causes the breaks in the crank or connecting rod of engine.it leads to damage the engine.
