Lftr liquid fluoride thorium reactor question to president obama

The world population is growing and so is energy demand. It has been suggested that a fundamental solution is needed to stop climate change, stabilize population growth, and satisfy an energy hungry world. It is physically impossible for solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, tidal, and biomass to generate enough power to meet even our current energy needs without destroying the environment in the process. A technology that is gaining popularity called the Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor will cost 50% less than current reactors manufactured today. This reactor is also impossible to melt down, does not require expensive fuel fabrication, is proliferation resistant, generates 1/1000th the amount of waste our current reactors produce, and this waste lasts only 300 years instead of 10000. As of 2007 a large group of nuclear physisists and engineers have created the Thorium Energy Alliance which seeks to build a $600 million liquid fluoride thorium reactor proof of concept which can then be mass produced by corporate entities and sold worldwide. This technology is also being actively pursued in France and Japan which expects their first reactor of this type to come online in 2014. Why is the United States government not funding this kind of groundbreaking technology that has the potential to bring cheap, clean, safe electricity that will stop climate change and power the entire world for thousands of years?

Liquid fluoride reactors: a new beginning for an old idea

Google Tech Talks February 19, 2009 ABSTRACT Slides for this talk are available at: www.slideshare.net Speaker: David LeBlanc David's Ph.d in physics was completed at University of Ottawa (1998) on high temperature superconductors. During this period, he developed a great interest to pursue both fission and fusion reactor design basics, which separately cumulated in a long term fellowship from the Canadian Fusion Fuels Technology Project (later ITER Canada) for his work on the use of high Tc superconductors in the fusion field and also work for Atomic Energy of Canada Limited on worldwide reactor design comparisons. Since then he has been teaching at the Carleton University physics department and continued his investigations primarily in the field of Molten Salt Reactors, also known as Liquid Fluoride Reactors. David founded Ottawa Valley Research Associates Ltd to expand these efforts and has completed a license agreement with a European firm with a goal of development of a new generation of Molten Salt Reactors.

The liquid fluoride thorium reactor: what fusion wanted to be

Google Tech Talks November 18, 2008 ABSTRACT Electrical power is, and will increasingly become, the desired form of energy for its convenience, safety, flexibility and applicability. Even future transportation embraces electric cars, trains, and chemical fuel production (jet fuel, hydrogen, etc.) based upon an abundant electrical supply. Although existing energy sources can and should be expanded where practical, no one source has shown to be practical to rapidly fulfill the world's energy requirements effectively. Presently there is an existing source of energy ideally suited to electrical energy production that is not being exploited anywhere in the world today, although its existence and practicality has been know since the earliest days of nuclear science. Thorium is the third source of fission energy and the LFTR is the idealized mechanism to turn this resource into electrical energy. Enough safe, clean energy, globally sustainable for 1000's of years at US standards. This talk is aimed at explaining this thorium energy resource from fundamental physics to today's practical applications. The presentation is sufficient for the non-scientist to grasp the whole subject, but will be intriguing to even classically trained nuclear engineers. By providing the historical context in which the technology was discovered and later developed into a power reactor, the story of thorium's disappearance as an energy source is revealed. But times have changed, and today, thorium ... Category: Science & Technology Length: 00:41:27.750 Tags: google techtalks techtalk engedu talk talks googletechtalks education .

Dr. kiki's science hour 84 (liquid fluoride thorium reactors) abridged 1/3

Video 2/3 www.youtube.com Dr Kiki's Science Hour 84 (Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors) Abridged 1/3 I've tried to leave the core points and edit out all the fluff as most people do not have the attention span to make it through the entire hour. The key points are: * We built and ran prototype Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors (LFTR) a form of molten salt reactor during the 60's. We have built LFTRs before. * Alvin Weinberg the man who invented and held the patents for our existing light water reactors (LWR) spent the rest of his career advocating the use of LFTR technology for it's safety and other advantages over LWR technology. Eventually he was fired for this advocacy even though he invented the LWR. * Once the development of a full scale LFTR design is completed and mass production started we expect a LFTR would be much cheaper to produce than a Light Water Reactor (LWR) we use today. The fuel to run a LFTR would be much more abundant and vastly cheaper than the uranium fuel used in today's light water reactors. * There is 4 times as much thorium as uranium on the planet, and we have thousands of years worth of thorium fuel available just in the USA. It is a waste product from neodymium rare earth mining. Some mines produce enough thorium as waste to meet the power demands of the entire earth for a year, in just one year of mining for neodymium. * Existing LWRs use less than 1% of the mined uranium as fuel, what can't be used for fuel is depleted uranium or radioactive ...

Energy from thorium: a nuclear waste burning liquid salt thorium reactor

Kirk Sorensen's Tech Talk, delivered at Google on July 20, 2009. Successfully developing a liquid-fluoride thorium reactor (LFTR) would essentially solve our planets energy problems for thousands of years, because it would allow us to fully utilize the energy in natural thorium, which makes up 0.0012% of the Earths crust. Most of the research and development work for this technology was done by Oak Ridge National Labs back in the 50s and 60s. They were working to a different set of overall objectives, nevertheless, there are many lessons to be gleaned from their work that can help us to avoid pitfalls and develop LFTR into a high-performance, high-reliability power supply.

Lftr vs nuclear waste - plutonium, americium, curium (transuranics) can be fissioned / disposed

facebook.com - LFTR does not produce transuranic waste. It burns up essentially all of the fuel because we don't remove fuel from the reactor until it's a fission product. It is these transuranics like plutonium, americium & curium which present the biggest challenge to nuclear waste disposal. They have moderate half-lives (neither decay quickly nor low levels of radiation) and have complicated decay chains. All of today's pressurized water reactors (every commercial reactor operating in North America) use less than 1% of the energy stored in the nuclear fuel. This is why the spent fuel rods are difficult to manage. LFTR can consume almost all of its fuel. This big increase in efficiency means less nuclear waste to deal with. And because LFTR (Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor) uses LIQUID fuel, it is far easier to partition the "waste" to extract valuable by-products, such as medical isotopes for cancer treatment.

A világ energetikai problémájára a megoldást már 1950-ben kitalálta egy Wigner Jenő nevű úriember (fizikusként Nobeldíjat kapot 1963-ban) A megoldás neve: Tórium Nukleáris Reaktor (energyfromthorium.com 2010 hírek: Obama megoldaná Tórium Reaktorral a világ energia problémáját: index.hu Az alábbi PDF-et nem az Egely György írta, a link kezdőcímének tanulsága szerint: www.atomeromu.hu LFTR: en.wikipedia.org Wigner Jenő nem csak kitalálta és megtervezte a reaktort, hanem meg is építette az első müködő LFTR-t, mindezt 1960-ban.(garázs körülmények közt: raklap méretben) A "háztályi" reaktor 5MegaWATT-al üzemelt 2 évig. A reaktor elsődleges hátránya: nukleáris fegyver gyártására nem alkalmas. (ezért nem terjedt el, csupán Nobel díjjal honorálták a Magyar feltalálót: Wigner Jenőt) A folyékony fluorid sóolvadékos tórium reaktort „LFTR" kódnéven lehet megtalálni a Google-ban A Torium Nukleáris mini reaktor főbb jellemzői: - nem tud felrobbanni (még akkor sem ha kettécsapják kőbaltával a sötétzöld Greenpeace tüntetők) - háztáji méretben már sokat építettek belőle (repülőgép és hajó hajtásra használják) - Tórium nem veszélyes fém (elvileg radioaktív fém, de annyira, hogy nyugodtan alhatsz vele egy szobában = elhanyagolható a radioaktivitása) - Tórium természetben előforduló NEM RITKA fém. (ólom gyakoriságú bányászható fém) - Tórium reaktorok tömeges lakossági alkalmazása esetén, 99%-os villamos áram árcsökkenés várható. - Tórium reaktorok lakossági alkalmazása lehetővé tenné az ...

No matter what !

THIS IS THE BOX that holds all FF's! Read on for plan... I want to thank Youtube for the audio swap... David O'Brien, Kali The Destroyer... And the developer of Stickman for making it possible for me to make this little animation There is NO excuse why batteries can't be like TEN TIMES CHEAPER. The LiFePO4 is lighter than NiMH and lasts for 2000 complete cycles. We need to make these electric car batteries in robotic factories, to dramatically lower costs. That way, we have a form of mobility that survives past the great oil age. Because I don't want my kids to be left without fuel for the car... Aside from solar and wind which can provide ALL the jobs needed to rehabilitate a screwed up global economy... Did you know that there is an UNLIMITED ENERGY SOURCE that is better than FF's and conventional nuclear? It is about 1000000 times as powerful as coal and does not require hundreds of thousands of square miles of solar collection (But I want that solution for economic reasons!). It is based on the efficient fission of thorium and SOLVES the worlds nuclear waste dilemma! Please search LFTR and the molten salt reactor. www.google.com It was proven and demonstrated at ORNL. It is not pressurized, requires no water (which likes to turn into hydrogen and explode when solar flares knock out the grid for a prolonged amount of time) and spits out only 1% of the wastes. Because it is so efficient, those wastes decay back to safe as lead levels in about 300 years (which is far ...

Thorium reactor question to president obama

Mr. President, you often say there is no silver bullet to our energy problems. However, there are bullets made of thorium and uranium. Our question to you is why is the federal government not accelerating research into fluid-fueled, molten salt reactors that run on thorium? Nuclear reactors that run on thorium offer superior advantages in safety, proliferation, waste, and cost. -There is enough thorium in the US to power our economy for the next 1000 years -Its waste lasts only 300 years compared to 10000 years for traditional plants -Thorium plants are 50% cheaper than traditional plants Thorium and fluid-fueled, molten salt reactor technology seems to have the best advantages when it comes to replacing fossil fuels, and improving the environment by offering safe, clean, efficient, cheap, and reliable power. Why are we not aggressively pursuing this technology? Category: News & Politics Length: 00:00:40.500 Tags: LFTR MSR thorium nuclear reactor energy alliance .

Integral fast reactor introduction

This video was originally uploaded by Steve Kirsch here: ifr.blip.tv I have re-uploaded the video here for a wider audience. Full credit to him for discovering this video and placing it on the internet. Describes the features and benefits of the Integral Fast Reactor. Major features are it uses existing nuclear waste for fuel and it generates no long-term radioactive waste; it is all recycled within the facility. This video was made in the early 1990s, although everything is still relevant the same today as we face the same if not greater energy issues. The IFR was canceled in 1994 for political reasons despite having the ability to solve all the current real and perceived problems with nuclear energy. For more discussion please visit: skirsch.com bravenewclimate.com We should build the IFR along with other sources of clean abundant power for a sustainable, ecologically friendly future.
