Chinese scientists successfully converted thorium-232 into uranium-233 within an experimental thorium molten salt reactor, validating the technical feasibility of the thorium fuel cycle. This ...
China’s Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics has completed the first-ever thorium-to-uranium fuel conversion in its ...
Months after satellites picked up a massive nuclear fusion facility in China’s Sichuan province, the country’s nuclear industry has blown the lid off fission tech. During a private meeting earlier ...
Thorium reactors are being developed as advanced small modular reactors by a Danish company, designed to be compact and self-maintaining, with the potential for reliable long-term operation. This ...
The experimental TMSR-LF1 thorium-powered molten salt reactor in Wuwei, Gansu Province, has achieved the first successful conversion of thorium-uranium nuclear fuel, the Shanghai Institute of Applied ...
A new license for Clean Core Thorium Energy to sell its fuel to India could revolutionize the nation's nuclear industry. For just the second time in nearly two decades, the United States has granted ...
