Abilene Christian University and Texas A&M are leading what could be a resurgence in nuclear power in Texas. The long-dormant ...

What if the next big thing in nuclear energy was a dusty old idea from the Cold War era? Once considered to power nuclear bombers, Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are in the spotlight, promising safer, ...

Scientists have built the first-ever thorium reactor. Thorium is both more easily accessible and less dangerous than uranium—the most common fission fuel. The system also uses molten salt instead of ...

Chinese scientists have refuelled an experimental thorium-fueled molten salt reactor continuously without shutting it down.

In a remote region of the Gobi Desert, China has successfully launched a nuclear experiment that could alter the global energy landscape. Chinese scientists have achieved what no other country has: ...

In a monumental step toward clean and safe nuclear energy, China has successfully launched the world’s first thorium-based nuclear reactor. This pioneering project, set in the remote Gobi Desert ...

The experimental reactor uses molten salt as the coolant and fuel carrier, with thorium as the fuel source. The experimental reactor uses molten salt as the coolant and fuel carrier, with thorium ...

Chinese scientists have achieved a milestone in clean energy technology by successfully adding fresh fuel to an operational thorium molten salt reactor, according to state media reports.

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - China has activated a thorium-based nuclear reactor, or thorium molten salt reactor, and claimed it as the world's first clean nuclear energy. The reactor is located in the Gobi ...
