Chapter 950 Emergency Relief
Compared with the ground troops conducting rescue, there is another unit that is more threatened by death, which is helicopter pilots.
While further eliminating the strong radiation sources outside, helicopter pilots are also flying over the nuclear power plant at the threat of death. Their helicopters are filled with boron carbide and sand. They need to throw these things into the core of the nuclear reactor that has been exposed to the air.
Because at this time, the fire in the nuclear reactor was still burning.
This is a graphite reactor, and the main component of graphite is charcoal. There were originally 1,700 tons of graphite here, but now only more than 800 tons remaining are all burning. In order to extinguish the fire here, you can only use boron carbide and sand to airdrop it on it, cover it, and extinguish the fire. At the same time, boron carbide can prevent the continued fission reaction inside.
In order to put out these fires and prevent the remaining nuclear fuel from continuing to react, they spent seven days airdropping nearly 4,000 tons of boron carbide and sand to complete the mission. In order to perform this mission, countless helicopter pilots had to risk drilling into the radioactive smoke above the wreckage of the nuclear reactor, and their bodies were subjected to strong radiation.
If you use a fire water gun and spray water directly inside, can you put out the fire inside?
The answer is yes, but there is not enough space inside this graphite reactor to accommodate the water. Then, as the water becomes more and more, a lot of water will flow out, causing huge damage to nuclear radiation. In the island country, the crisis in later generations is to use sea water to cool down, pump the sea water up, flow into the reactor, and then discharge the sea water into the ocean. This behavior is really impossible to comment on.
These tasks are carried out by people. Although the three thousand radiation-proof suits provided by Iraq for emergency assistance have been in place, and Western European countries have also taken action to assist some radiation-proof suits, it is still impossible to fully protect the safety of all the personnel participating in the rescue.
At the beginning of the rescue operation, technicians used some remote control equipment to enter the most dangerous high-radiation areas, but these equipment, which could hardly be carried out, were scrapped because of the strong radiation, caused problems in the control circuit.
Therefore, everything needs to be operated by people.
This is a heroic battle, and although there is no smoke of gunpowder, it is even more respectful.
A huge 26 helicopter, from a height of 60 meters above the nuclear reactor, bypassed various areas of strong radiation that appeared with incredibly lightweight, but it still cannot avoid flying directly above the most radiant reactor, where the radiation is absolutely deadly, even for pilots wearing thick protective suits.
Twenty tons of boron carbide and sand were airdropped, and then, they returned to the landing ground a few kilometers away. Then, the pilot got off the plane and started vomiting constantly, and some had lost their ability to move. Medical staff came up and sent the pilot to an ambulance and to the hospital, while another young pilot silently pedaled onto the helicopter...
Fortunately, because of the timely reaction, the people around them had already evacuated the dangerous areas without being exposed to strong radiation.
Seven days later, the radiation clouds drifted into Western Europe. They were facing a great enemy and formulated various emergency measures to prevent the harm caused by the radiation.
When the fire inside the reactor was finally put out and the internal nuclear reaction stopped, a more difficult choice was placed in front of the accident handling experts. This time, the problem of this nuclear reactor needs to be completely solved. How should these nuclear waste be handled?
It is absolutely impossible to store open air in this way. It must be sealed. In addition, another terrible situation is needed. The magma formed by melting high-temperature uranium and cement in the reactor core melts through the base plate of the factory and enters the underground, which will pollute precious groundwater sources. Israel's underground nuclear tests caused groundwater pollution in Jordan. So, in the end, they decided to build a reinforced concrete sarcophagus for the bombed reactor No. 4 and completely seal it up.
These construction projects, soldiers and workers have entered the battlefield again, and they need to fight for the motherland.
At this time, Iraq from the Middle East once again extended a hand of friendship and helped five cement pump trucks with a head length of 40 meters and forty cement mixers.
Historically, these sarcophagus were completed manually, and most of the people involved in the construction were unfortunately infected with radiation diseases. Now, equipment from Iraq allows them to work slightly farther from the nuclear reactor. Originally, cement pump trucks could be operated remotely, but now, the remote control equipment is broken and must be operated manually. Even so, it greatly accelerates the process and greatly reduces the risk of exposure of personnel.
In this leak accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the Soviet Union used more than 20,000 people to rescue the disaster. At the same time, it transferred one million residents nearby. Due to the rapid action and timely handling, the losses caused by the accident were minimized.
In this incident, Iraq's outstanding performance also made the Soviets feel that Iraq is their good friend and a country worth dating.
In this incident, Iraq provided 3,000 sets of radiation-proof suits. This radiation-proof suit is the latest European product and is more advanced than the radiation-proof suits used by the nuclear and biochemical forces used by the Soviet Union. Then, Iraq provided mechanical equipment for the construction of sarcophagus. Finally, Iraq also provided anti-radiation drugs and a batch of food. Now, the Soviet Union has a headache every year due to food problems. This time, one million residents were transferred, and the resettlement problem of these residents could still be solved, but the food problem is a big problem.
These people who were transferred can't carry anything. Any supplies at home may have been radioactively contaminated. They just left the house without leaving the house, and then the family was sealed by soldiers, and these areas were then martial law.
With the ability of the Soviet Union, it was already the limit to be able to mobilize enough vehicles and transport these personnel. It was absolutely impossible to transport supplies. If you come back and transport them for the second trip? That was absolutely impossible. There was already more radioactivity here.
Therefore, the Soviet Union suddenly discovered that feeding these unfortunate people was also a difficult task. At this time, Iraq's aid food solved their problems.
Iraq has worked so hard in the face of the Soviet Union's nuclear accident, which has made many countries in the world look very unhappy, especially the United States.
The United States watched Iraq become stronger day by day, and faced with Iraq's capture of the most important island at the entrance of Persians, and the conflict between the UAE and Iraq that it deliberately provoked was not successful, their hearts were filled with a huge sense of loss.
The relationship between Iraq and the United States is a perfect match. Now, Iraq is running away and holding Gorbachev's thigh. The Jewish forces in the United States first manipulate the press and sarcastically sarcastically at Kusai, claiming that Kusai uses this method to try his best to please Gorbachev.
Looking at the cartoon, Kusai was holding Gorbachev's thigh tightly in front of the smoke-filled nuclear reactor. Kusai was a little surprised. He did not expect that the Jewish IQ would actually decrease, and he tried to use this method to make him use it to make him bad. I am afraid that Kusai Abdullah's reputation would be made!
"This time, the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant caused a major loss of people's lives and property, and caused radioactive pollution with inestimable consequences. The dust fell to Belarus, Russia and the Ukraine republic, and also to Europe. This accident was not only a disaster for the Soviet people, but also a disaster for the people of the world. It was a setback in the peaceful use of nuclear energy by human beings. Although we Iraq is not a developed country, we hope to rely on our ability to help as many innocent people in nuclear radiation areas as possible to help the Soviet Union quickly resolve this nuclear issue. This is our Iraq, and it is also a problem.
One thing that every country with conscience and compassion in the world should do. We choose to treat it indifferently or help it enthusiastically. This is not an ideological problem, but a problem of one's conscience. I believe that we humans should join hands in the face of disasters and solve problems together, rather than sarcasm. As long as we humans can unite, there is no problem that cannot be solved. In the face of disasters, I believe that all countries will extend a hand of friendship to rescue those in disaster areas that need rescue. This is our human nature. We Iraq is just ahead." Iraq's spokesperson said calmly in the face of reporters.
Iraq's words immediately spread all over the world. Suddenly, those who were still mocking Iraq immediately shut their mouths consciously. Iraq was right. In the face of disasters, what humans need is to work together to face and solve these problems together. Whether it is earthquakes, tsunamis, various natural disasters, or man-made disasters such as nuclear power plants, they should not stand by.
Various humanitarian institutions such as the International Red Cross began to stand up enthusiastically to carry out humanitarian rescue. All countries, including Western countries, have made donations, whether sincere or symbolic, in short, have made statements to help the people in those disaster areas.
In the face of disasters, there is no distinction between national boundaries and ideology.
