That’s over 80 million liters per day! You have to realize that these new nuclear power plants make 4 billion watts of heat and about 1.4 billion goes out as electric power. The remaining heat has to be dissipated as heat – so it goes into the water in the cooling tower. https://www.facebook.com/southernnuclear/videos/708110578766188/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
