One, it doesn't operate at high pressure.

So what they call Coulomb Barrier is reduced.

line with the light water reactors. It's funny, even at that time 50 years ago, nobody thought the light water reactor, the heavy water reactor would be around very long.

It is not very efficient.

This has a distinction of being the newest nuclear reactor in the United States. This came online in 1996.

We can fully burn up the thorium in this reactor versus only burning up part of the uranium in a typical light water reactor.

OK, crank a hard cutback as you hit the wall.

One of these eight pipes, for whatever reason, shears.

Babcock amp Wilcox that make nuclear reactors, here's an integral fast reactor.

The story gets a little more complicated too because in addition to being a thorium guru,

Fumes and furnaces!

We've got a perfect fire.

Outpost incinerator.

Reactor core temperature.

To the reactor?

They're just going too fast. Sure enough, they knock the hydrogens clean off.

To the incinerator.

If you don't get emergency coolant to the fuel in the reactor, it can overheat and melt.

I had the good fortune to learn about a different form of nuclear power.

Reactor bay.

And they threw up walls political walls, trade walls, transportation walls, communication walls, iron curtains which divided peoples and nations.

Let me talk about today's nuclear fuel, because that is common to both boiling water reactors, pressurized water reactors and CANDUs.

Its outer wall is solid rock but for a small culvert at its base which is little more than a drain.

If you lose pressure, you lose your water, and soon your fuel will melt down and release the radioactive fission products within it.

It involved a whole different set of technologies that were much more in

LFTR is a molten salt reactor. All LFTRs are molten salt reactors but not all molten salt reactors are LFTRs.

Swish, rustle. He was working in a room with an open fireplace, he said.

Then what happens to the waste?

The one nearest the fire.

Would you like to sit and stare at the fake fire?

Put in a real fire pit.

The reactor is close.

Below the threshold we perceive things as they are.

The entire crew's been bumping into walls, it's like... someone spiked the water supply.

I set up the type, I printed it out on an Epson printer with water soluble ink, taped it to the wall and threw a bucket of water at it.

Yo, Kusakabe!

Buckle up, buckle up!

Get in here.

What are your thoughts on the traveling wave reactor?
