Energy Production Record Broken with Nuclear Fusion

The nuclear fusion facility, which became operational in 1983, was led by the UK and included some European countries. JET, broke a big record. The laboratory, which carried out its last study in December 2023, 69 megajoulesIt was announced that it produced more than 100% energy. Thus, humanity has become a little closer to unlimited nuclear energy.

Nuclear fusion, in its simplest form, is the union of the nucleus of one atom with the nucleus of another atom. as a result of the merger producing a new element. This reaction produced huge amounts of energy, and that’s exactly what JET did. Moreover, the energy released in nuclear fusion reactions is environmentally friendly. to be cleanIt is of critical importance for the world to evolve to a completely different point. As a result, clean and unlimited energy can be obtained as a result of such reactions.

What is 69.29 megajoules of energy enough for?

JET produced 69 megajoules of energy in the 5-second experiment and broke a big record. But you still think 69.29 megajoules is too much for energy. don’t get excited. Because with this energy, you can only heat 4-5 bathrooms at the same time. However, the important thing here is to see that the work done bears fruit. In its initial work, JET only 22 megajoules It was producing energy.

He studies nuclear fusion at the University of Manchester. Dr. Aneeqa Khan, explained the challenges associated with this technology. According to the statement made by the scientist, in order for atoms to combine and form a new element, a temperature 10 times higher than that of the Sun must be reached and this temperature must be maintained for a while. If one day you can easily 100 million degrees Celsius If atoms with sufficient temperature and density are brought together, the energy wars we see today will be history.
