A study by BARC scientists has concluded that HALEU-Thorium fuel is unsuitable for India's nuclear reactors, requiring costly ...
A research team in China may have taken a major step toward making nuclear power far more sustainable, per the South China Morning Post. Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences confirmed that an ...
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 ...
China’s Institute of Modern Physics, part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is building what it calls the world’s first ...
Indian scientists and international experts are divided over a study questioning the viability of a nuclear reactor fuel called HALEU-thorium; while critics cite safety risks, proponents argue the ...
India holds the world's largest thorium reserves, and developing technologies to use them could not only strengthen energy security but also reduce proliferation risks ...
By fully operationalising the thorium fuel cycle, India can insulate itself from global turbulence, reduce external ...
The Indian 3-stage nuclear power strategy is based on a ‘closed’ fuel cycle in order to optimally use the country’s limited uranium resources and exploit its vast reserves of thorium (Th-232) – a ...
Last year, a UCLA-led team accomplished something scientists have been trying to do for 50 years. They made radioactive thorium nuclei absorb and emit photons like electrons in an atom do. This ...
