In
the basement of our Training Centre we have an Information
Centre
with a permanent exhibition on nuclear technology. The
emphasis is given to nuclear power plant technology and radioactive waste management.
The
exhibition consists mainly of panels with
detailed descriptions of
different topics related to nuclear technology in the Slovenian and English
languages.
Visitors can find anything from
operation of a power plant to environmental issues
related to energy management and influences that it has on the environment
such as the Greenhouse Effect and Global
Warming.
Besides
the panels there are also several computers with interesting
software:
-
Quiz
about radioactive waste management
-
The
most frequent questions about radioactivity and radioactive
waste.
-
Map
with locations of the Nuclear Power Plants in the World.
-
A
"flight" over radioactive waste repositories.
-
Multimedia

There
are also interesting exhibits and mockups:
