House believes Indonesia need nuclear energy
Especially for Power Plant (LIMIT)

Nuclear energy has tremendous benefits when used as where. Some use of nuclear
technology in everyday life can be classified into various fields, among others in the field of Animal
Husbandry, Fisheries, Mining. Akreology , Hydrology, Food, Biological, Energy, Medical and
Industrial. In industry, nuclear technology has been widely used, e. g. for sterilization, testing the
quality of materials, construction, and more.
Nuclear is the latest technology that is beneficial to various sectors of human life. Impact
that could arise from the use of nuclear energy is dangerous but still can be minimized or even
eliminated. This can be done by always prioritizing safety and security while operating it.
Nuclear
Energy produces by controlling nuclear reaction. Nuclear energy is one of energy sources in
this planet which man known how to convert it to heat energy and electricity. As far as we know
nuclear energy is the densest sources of energy which can be developed by humankind. So this could
extract more heat and electricity energy than other energy sources.
E.G.
- A Kilogram of coal only can light the bulb for 4 days
- A kilogram of uranium can give energy to light bulb so it can light, at least, 180 years.
Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium atoms in a process called fission. At
the power plant, the fission process is used to generate heat for producing steam, which is used by a
turbine to generate electricity. Fuel required for nuclear reactor is Uranium, because uranium will
split into lighter nucleus to produce the heat energy and electricity. We dont need to import the
uranium from other country because in Indonesia reserves 70,000 tons uranium. Most of the
uranium reserves are mostly located in West Kalimantan, partly in Papua, Bangka Belitung and West
Sulawesi, while most of the thorium in Babel and partly in West Kalimantan.
Badan Pengawas Tenaga Nuklir (Bapeten) has conducted research on the content of
uranium in the District Mamuju like Takandeang village, District Tapalang, also in the village Belang
Belang, District Kalukku, about 30 kilometers from the city in District Tobadak Mamuju and about
100 kilometers from the city Mamuju.. Based on the research results of mining in Mamuju, potential
uranium found considered harmless. The nature of the uranium is just as raw material to generate
nuclear power.
Actually theres two process of developing the nuclear energy, one by fission, I already
mention it before, and the other is fusion. Nuclear fusion reactions are believed to have the
potential for a more secure because expend less than the radioactive properties of nuclear fission
and fusion reaction does not produce radioactive waste, and radioactive elements used in fusion
reactors has a half-life-time is much shorter - just 12.3 years. This process believed as the cheapest
process because this fusion nuclear using different fuel, they using Hydrogen which contain in water,
and Indonesia has extremely abundant water.
Excess of Nuclear Power Plant in Indonesia
- Not produce greenhouse gases due to the NPP not to react because the burning of fossil
fuels nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel and using the decay to produce energy.
- Does not produce gases that pollute the air such as CO, SO2, NO, mercury.
- Using fuel is relatively cheaper than other power plants due to fuel nuclear power plants use
relatively less compared to other power plants.
- The ratio of fuel needed by the energy produced is very large.

Cadangan
Sebagian besar cadangan Uranium kebanyakan berada di Kalimantan Barat, sebagian lagi ada di
Papua, Bangka Belitung dan Sulawesi Barat, sedangkan Thorium kebanyakan di Babel dan sebagian
di Kalbar.

Badan Pengawas Tenaga Nuklir (Bapeten) telah melakukan penelitian atas kandungan
uranium di Kabupaten Mamuju seperti di desa Takandeang, Kecamatan Tapalang, juga di
desa Belang Belang, Kecamatan Kalukku, sekitar 30 kilometer dari kota Mamuju dan di
Kecamatan Tobadak sekitar 100 kilometer dari kota Mamuju.

Berdasarkan hasil penelitian tambang di Mamuju, potensi uranium yang ditemukan dianggap
tidak berbahaya. Sifat uranium itu hanya sebagai bahan baku untuk membangkitkan tenaga
nuklir. Sehingga ia meminta Bepeten segera meneliti titik potensi kandungan uranium di
Kecamatan Kalukku dan Kecamatan Tobadak itu.
