Cai highlighted that China has witnessed steady growth in newly installed nuclear power capacity. However, the country faces ...
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 ...
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 material is three to four times more abundant than uranium and produces about 250 times the amount of energy per unit of weight. So what´s the trick? The use of thorium is based on an ...
DeepGEO, a multinational spent nuclear fuel (SNF) repository developer, and Copenhagen Atomics, a Danish advanced thorium reactor innovator, have signed a first-of-its-kind collaboration agreement ...
What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis has been hiding in plain sight, buried within the Earth’s crust? Imagine an energy source that is not only abundant and efficient but also safer ...
US-based multinational repository developer DeepGeo and Danish advanced reactor designer Copenhagen Atomics are to collaborate on better understanding both the radioactive materials and fuel needs of ...
A recently declassified report has revealed that China may have far more thorium than previously estimated. The radioactive metal, already known to exist in vast quantities within China’s borders, ...

India is building a 500 MWe reactor that’ll ‘breed’ more nuclear fuel that it’ll consume. How it works
Fuel-loading for Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor in TN's Kalpakkam began on 18 October. Officials expect it to achieve 1st ...
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. A top down view of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's 1960s molten salt reactor experiment, an ...
Asia has become the global fulcrum of nuclear energy growth, counting 145 operational reactors and 45 under construction in the region. The enviable growth of the continent and the subsequent capacity ...
China has successfully achieved the first-ever thorium to uranium nuclear fuel conversion in a Thorium Molten Salt Reactor (TMSR), and obtained valid experimental data following thorium fuel loading, ...
