Forget About Nuclear Fusion - Thorium is the Energy Source of the Future

💠 Thorium is a heavy element that can be used in fission reactors to produce energy. Advanced thorium-fueled reactors are believed to be able to extract 40 to 50 times more energy than conventional uranium-fueled reactors, making them potentially much more fuel-efficient. It would also produce less nuclear waste and require much less mining. The US ran the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment from 1965 to 1969 at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which showed that thorium could be utilized as a fuel. The experiment was largely successful, but it had several design flaws. The biggest problem was the structural integrity of the metal pipes used to transport the liquid fuel. Despite earlier difficulties, many businesses and government research have shown renewed interest in thorium as a potential energy source.

Thanks and Enjoy 🔥 🔥
