How about a thorium based reactor that utilizes nuclear waste and doesn't need refueling for 50 years? That is a good stop gap until aneutronic radioactive waste free fusion reactors come online.  |
| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 77952124 United States10/21/2020 08:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Poland wants to build six nuclear reactors to supplement its gas imports. Currently, it imports a lot of gas from Russia, but given the less than friendly bilateral relations, it wants to cut these off, and soon, by 2022, Reuters notes. Instead, it would import pipeline gas by Norway and liquefied natural gas from, among others, the United States. Quoting: Goneviral Yet Poland also relies heavily on coal-fired power plants, and this goes counter to the EU’s ambitions for a net-zero economy in 2050. The only way to reduce or even eliminate its coal use is to replace that cheap energy with another comparable generational capacity.

Back in the day they never developed Thorium because they wanted breeder reactors for weapons grade fissal materials, and thorium reactors cant do that. But there is no reason not to try now.

User ID: 79369369 United States10/21/2020 12:06 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Light water reactors have so much red tape involved, it's extremely hard to build them. It takes SO LONG. Where as thorium salt reactors have way less red tape, and can be done in less than 10 years. I hope they choose thorium. I believe in science NOT religion. Giving me bad karma for that, is anti-religious (you're passing judgement) I am just a man. Of no significance.

User ID: 79318196 United States10/21/2020 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why!!!! We are so close to nuclear fusion, and while it does create some waste, it’s nowhere near the scale of nuclear fission we are ruining the planet with. Take it from me, I live in Washington and as does every other Washingtonian I know full well what nuclear waste can do, ergo Hanford.
