The possibility of neutrino and gamma-ray radiation due to nuclear interactions of particles with trajectories intersecting the equatorial plane of a fastly rotating black hole near its horizon is discussed. Such trajectories apparently are typical of a thick accretion disk near its inner boundary where the motion of the particles does not deviate considerably from a geodesic. The maximal energy of the products of nuclear interactions ejected to infinity is determined by Penrose processes and reached values ⪉1 GeV for proton collisions. In the case of accretion near the Eddington limit the noticeable part of luminosity of a rotating black hole may be generated by means of nuclear interactions.
