Today, we went to the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant in Burke County, Georgia. We learned about the various types of facilities located on this plant as well as places throughout the world. The one main thing that I learned was the fact that cooling towers actually release water vapor. I was always worried that plants released a lot pollution from that white smoke. Actually it gives off water vapor. The majority of the stations are run by coal. The United States have 104 plants and the plants are located on lands and seas. It was a very educational and informational day. Later this evening, we had lecture. It was a extremely long day but I enjoyed learning at this facility since I have never been at a facility like this before.
These next 12 days will be very busy but I'm ready to take on this challenge.
Yours truly,
Brittany
