Nuclear Power Plants uses uranium, which is a natural ore that has been enriched. This power plant does not burn any fuel, so then no pollutants are being released. The process starts off by having the tiny parts of the uranium, atoms, would be split. When the cycle begins the atoms are being broken down into the smaller parts, called neutrons, and released. Finally the neutrons that are released will collide into more uranium atoms. The heat is released, and that creates the electricity.
