[quote:Anonymous Coward 80812566:MV80OTM5NDM1XzkwMzAzOTA4XzE1NDZBQkFC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 80298875:MV80OTM5NDM1XzkwMzAzODA3Xzg0M0JEQzBE] It's completely feasible yes and probably the future of energy, will be molten salt reactor small size, not pressurised water, safe managed by private companies Like probably container size molten salt reactor Instead of having one big risky nuclear plot it will be many small reactors, with almost no maintenance changing the thorium fuel once every 10/20 years something like that [/quote] dream on. to make electricity you need to boil water to make steam then the steam needs to spin a turbine. there is no way that a steam boiler, turbine, and electric generator setup will be "almost no maintenance". unless you really enjoy explosions and fires [/quote]
