It was an informative, interesting and a successful seminar. As students of Electrical Engineering, we learned about working of nuclear power plant and different types of electrical equipment which used in nuclear power station. They explained about myths about nuclear plants, its pros & cons, nuclear waste management. They also explained about safety related issues in nuclear plant and how they use nuclear waste for different purpose.
We all are thankful to experts who guided students with each and every question with detailed answers. We all, members of Electrical Engineering Department, SSASIT, are thankful to each and every member involved in arranging such a tremendously conversant and wonderful seminar for the welfare of students.
