| Radioactive materials are used in nuclear power stations . . . |
 |
 |
. . . and in certain medical treatments and diagnostics. |
Radioactive materials are highly dangerous.
The rays they emit are very penetrating and their effects are long-lasting. Because of the
problems involved and the need for shielding, transport of radioactive materials is left to
specialised companies.
You can find out more about radioactive materials, and their transport, by visiting the British Energy Web site at http://www.british-energy.com/ |
