Explore the potential of molten salt nuclear power technology, which aims to eliminate concerns about nuclear waste and disasters while providing nearly unlimited energy. This video discusses how ...

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear fission reactors in which either the fuel and/or the coolant is a molten salt. Molten salt is salt which liquifies at elevated temperatures and can store ...

As next-generation nuclear reactors, known as Gen IV power plants, are developed, it is looking more and more likely that they will be of the molten salt variety. These plants swap out radioactive ...

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 ...

A novel nuclear reactor currently under construction at the Abilene Christian University (ACU) in Texas will help generate carbon-free energy while also desalinating water, solving two problems at ...

To meet energy demands and reestablish the nation’s energy dominance, U.S. companies are developing several types of advanced reactors. One type of advanced reactor, a molten salt reactor, uses fuels ...

Stellaria has moved into the regulatory phase of nuclear development by filing a DAC application for its Alvin prototype ...

French molten salt reactor developer Stellaria has announced it is seeking the necessary authorisations to construct an ...

A French firm has submitted its application with local authorities, seeking approval to build ...

The first stage of design work on a prototype molten salt reactor has been completed, Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom has said. (Image: Rosatom) A preliminary design was unveiled in February ...
