Thorium is the third source of fission energy and the LFTR is the idealized mechanism to turn this resource into electrical energy.

-
* solid* thorium reactors and using thorium in current PWRs, but the LFTR is a very different animal and I've heard nothing but positives from all the nuclear engineers that have covered it (search for 'thorium' on google tech talks and you'll see what I mean).
-
The Department of Energy and Idaho National Laboratory should participate in such a NASA project, but today DOE-INL progress in fourth generation nuclear power technology such as LFTR proceeds at a snail ‚ Äôs pace, with fickle funding and a mission to support for the existing solid fuel nuclear technology.
-
2009 6: 49 GMT: With closed fuel cycles (such as LFTR or IFR) you can consume the actinides
-
Let me list the advantages of an electrical power plant based on LFTR compared to conventional nuclear and fossil-fuel plants:
-
Thanks to reactor physicist Bob Zannelli for bringing LFTR to my attention and helping me learn the science.
-
Work on LFTR is going on worldwide, with research being done in China, France, the Czech Republic, Japan, Russia, Canada, and the Netherlands.
-
Currently the liquid fluoride thorium reactor LFTR is having a resurgence of interest worldwide.
-
LFTR/MSR would utilize this otherwise discarded "waste".
-
Hardly a waste, once we can separate and purify them (which LFTR enables, contrary to solid fueled reactors).
