This 373 MWt/168 MWe liquid-fuel MSR small modular reactor is planned, with supercritical CO2 cycle in a tertiary loop at 23 MPa using Brayton cycle, after a radioactive isolation secondary loop.

And the thorium dream is becoming a reality in China, where an experimental thorium-based nuclear reactor was built in 2021. The reactor, situated in the Gobi Desert, is under constant testing ...

Thorium, meanwhile ... "The nuclear nay-sayers point to SMRs [Small Modular Reactors] and say 'long lead times, not yet ...

After a half-century hiatus, thorium has returned to the front lines of nuclear power research as a source of fuel. In 2025, China plans to start building a demonstration thorium-based molten-salt ...

The NGR’s program begins by testing several small-scale reactor designs, where its first experiment uses a setup called a molten-salt fast reactor that burns thorium salts. This could ...

India's nuclear power plant in Kudankulam was breached by North Korean hackers looking for information on thorium-based reactors — an alternative to using uranium. India is currently the leader ...

India's goal to utilize its thorium deposits for energy could be advanced by US-based Clean Core Thorium Energy's new ...
