Scientists have built the first-ever thorium reactor. Thorium is both more easily accessible and less dangerous than uranium—the most common fission fuel. The system also uses molten salt instead of ...
Chinese scientists have completed a major breakthrough in clean energy by reloading fresh fuel into a working thorium molten salt reactor. They did this while the reactor continued running, marking a ...
A thorium-fueled reactor is the latest idea being revived after getting shelved in the mid-20th century. China has once again beat everyone else to a clean energy milestone—its new nuclear reactor is ...
The starting point is stunning enough to seem almost mythological: a giant thorium reserve discovered at the Bayan Obo mining complex in Inner Mongolia. Chinese geological teams confirmed that the ...
What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis has been hiding in plain sight, buried within the Earth’s crust? Imagine an energy source that is not only abundant and efficient but also safer ...
Chinese scientists successfully converted thorium-232 into uranium-233 within an experimental thorium molten salt reactor, validating the technical feasibility of the thorium fuel cycle. This ...
Chinese scientists have completed a major breakthrough in clean energy by reloading fresh fuel into a working thorium molten salt reactor. They did this while the reactor continued running, marking a ...
China’s experimental thorium molten salt reactor has reportedly achieved sustained thorium-to-uranium fuel conversion, marking a major scientific first. The breakthrough could ease China’s dependence ...
The experimental TMSR-LF1 thorium-powered molten salt reactor in Wuwei, Gansu Province, has achieved the first successful conversion of thorium-uranium nuclear fuel, the Shanghai Institute of Applied ...
