lol

@T e x it's pronounced CHAD

aka molten salt

few reasons for that

Thorium is some shit

Let me tell you

Everyone go back to woodstoves and whale oil

absurdly rare isnt it

@soup dad I still wonder how they manage to pull a profit when there’s probably so many more expenses for that sort of thing.

There's a lot we could potentially do with it if we not been Tech bottlenecked

@Aya is that those thorium salt reactors?

@Leeroy tell me

also yes

they're bs

pls educate

@Aya will try an find the vid 4 u

also @T e x here's some govt stuff on global warming http://documents.theblackvault.com/documents/intellipedia/intellipedia-climatechange.pdf

they aren't BS

but they aren't practical either yet

but there's a resurgence in pursuit of it

Thorium also decays into Uranium 233

especially on the chinese front

fuck maybe I'll move to china

Yo real quick. Im seeing trump ads everywhere. This man is really campaigning 24/7

but there's a whole bunch of issues affecting thorium reactor development

Remind me, what’s the deal with thorium salt reactors again? The phrase is niggling something from back when I watched thunderf00t.

If there is one thing I could have in my lifetime before I die

It's would be fusion reactors

the main problem from what I remember is the actual loop

material choice was the shitter

even with assisted metlag

@Aya http://www.theblackvault.com/documents/ota/Ota_5/DATA/1978/7801.PDF thorium reactors and LFMBR's have a real problem due to corrosion and expenses

metlags like a loop enclosure with heatsinks

yeah plus the corrosion

thorium is a MSBR or Molten Salt Breeder Reactor

plus the radiation

and depending on the application, stress/compression etc

We need a breakthrough in power of some sort

bear in mind this shit's weakest link is the loop itself, not the reaction vessel

Something cleaner

The way nuclear power is right now is not good
