How is chain reaction controlled in a nuclear power plant? Chain reaction is controlled through using neutron absorbing materials as reactor control rods (of high neutron absorbing material), boron, and/or cadmium.
A nuclear power plant heats water. It is a giant kettle. A nuclear power plant produces energy through a series of steps. The uranium fuel is inserted into the reactor caus â¦ ing controlled nuclear reactions.This then generates immense amounts of heat, which is used to heat water, which creates steam and turns turbines. nuclear power plant heats water.
