Solution
The deal to set up the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor has been signed. ITER, a fusion energy project is a futuristic source of limitless energy. ITER uses deuterium, a form of hydrogen found in sea water, as fuel. It seeks to produce fusion energy by imitating the sun. Electromagnets create a magnetic field inside the reactor where a gas composed of deuterium and tritium is injected and contained. The gas is then heated to extremely high temperatures to transform it into plasma, a super hot gas. Plasma burns and releases neutron, helium and a great quantity of energy. The energy released is converted to heat which produces vapour that feeds a turbine alternator. As the turbine rotates, it generates electricity. Fusion energy has many advantages over conventional nuclear power that works by fission or the splitting of atoms. Unlike fossil fuel power stations, fusion reactors do not emit greenhouse gases. Nor do they create the highly radioactive waste found in current nuclear reactors.
