million investment from Sustainable Development Technology Canada to support the development and commercialization of a new hydrogen manufacturing technology called Molten Salt Catalyzed Gasification (MSG), originally developed at the US Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The SDTC funding builds on a previous SDTC project.

Researchers are considering three different types: a lead-cooled fast reactor, a uranium-fueled, helium-gas-cooled reactor, and a molten-salt-cooled reactor, shown here [below, at bottom]. Another plus for nuclear-propelled ships is easy access to an endless supply of cooling water. The reactors would be small, modular units.

The GE Research team aims to reduce operations and maintenance (O&M) costs by moving from a time- to condition-based predictive maintenance framework, using GE Hitachi’s BWRX-300 boiling water reactor as the reference design. SSR-W is a low overnight-capital plant design, targeting a e build cost.

Molten salt nuclear reactors (MSRs) fit the bill—and, according to at least one source , China may be well on their way to developing MSR technology. Government researchers there unveiled a design for a commercial molten salt reactor (MSR) that uses. Live Science , the Chinese government plans to build several large MSRs.

These plants are all conventional light water reactors (LWR), the technology of which has evolved steadily over time. As utilities have begun retiring older plants, however, comparatively high costs have made it difficult to justify building new nuclear power plants. GW by 2050.

The type of spallation target: lead, lead– bismuth, tungsten, molten salt, etc. The nature of the cooling agent: gas, molten metal, molten salt. and Muons, is a molten-salt based ADSR that uses a linear accelerator to produce spallation neutrons. or liquid (fluorides, chlorides). Bilpuch, Calvin R.
