'Green light' given for first thorium molten salt nuclear reactor in China
#Chinaâs Ministry of #Ecology and #Environment has approved the commissioning of an experimental molten salt #thorium #nuclear #reactor in #Wuwei City.
If successful, the TMSR-LF1 has the potential to open doors for developing and constructing a more extensive demonstration facility by 2030. Additionally, it could lead to constructing a #TMSR fuel salt batch pyro-process demonstration facility, which would enable the utilization of the thorium-uranium cycle by the early 2040s.
