The experimental TMSR-LF1 thorium-powered molten salt reactor in Wuwei, Gansu Province, has achieved the first successful ...

Andrew Yang mentioned Thorium Nuclear Reactors as one of the advanced nuclear fission reactor concepts. Yang has also talked about making a prototype thorium reactor by 2027. There is a US startup ...

India achieved a historic milestone in nuclear technology, becoming only the second nation after Russia to master the fast-breeder reactor, a breakthrough that places it far ahead of China in the ...

Flibe Energy is developing a two-fluid thorium fueled breeder, the Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR), which was the original aim of the ORNL program. Thorcon Power aims for a system most similar ...

The Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics - part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences - has been given approval by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment to commission an experimental thorium-powered ...

Take a look at YouTube’s “Energy from Thorium” by Kirk Sorenson that explains the “liquid fluoride thorium reactor” (LFTR — pronounced “lifter”). A real eye-opener of how great minds and ideas can be ...

If you've not been tracking the thorium hype, you might be interested to learn that the benefits liquid fluoride thorium reactors (LFTRs) have over light water uranium reactors (LWRs) are compelling.

Kirk Sorensen, an engineer and long-time public advocate for thorium fuel for nuclear reactors in lectures across four continents, will bring his message to Oak Ridge at noon Tuesday, Sept. 12. A ...

If Alvin Weinberg, the most renowned director of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, were alive today, he would likely agree with Kirk Sorensen, the founder of Flibe Energy Inc., that a molten salt reactor ...

China is reportedly developing the world’s first “clean” nuclear reactor using liquid thorium and molten salt. According to LiveScience, the innovation is much superior to traditional uranium reactors ...

The Integral MSR is also based on the MSR Experiment but has been modified to have a more sealed, passive approach. The design team is based in Canada with international involvement and support. An 80 ...
