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?

READ! I added this video for a project regarding Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors, watch and enjoy. [Edited with the YouTube Video Editor (www.youtube.com Here is a petition for those interested in the US, take a look. thoriumpetition.com Here is a petition for the UK, please sign! epetitions.direct.gov.uk It won't take long. Also, because so many people have asked: The main downsides/negatives to this technology, are basically politics, corrosion and being scared of nuclear radiation. Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors were created 50 years ago by an American chap called Alvin Weinberg, but the American Government realised you can't weaponise the by-products and so they weren't interested. Another point, yes it WAS corrosive, but these tests of this reactor were 50 years ago, our technology has definately improved since then so a leap to create this reactor shouldn't be too hard. And nuclear fear is extremely common in the average person, rather irrational though it may be. More people have died from fossil fuels and even hydroelectric power than nuclear power. Thanks for watching. And please, please share this video with as many people as you can. The more that know about this, the greater chance of change. R.

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 ...

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.

Particularly in the "POST FUKUSHIMA" world, it would be easy to toss out the baby with the bath water. The anti-nuclear crowd has never been stronger nor as loud. The promise of electricity so cheap to produce that it would not make sense to meter it has never been achieved. Fifty years worth of highly radioactive waste continues to build up at nuclear power plants across the country. And now, many people are dead and many more will die before their time as a result of letting the nuclear genie out of the bottle. Against this growing tide of resentment against an industry that many feel have failed to live up to its promise, a growing group of mavericks argue that there is promise in nuclear.

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

Sign the petition! ThoriumPetition.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.

Thorium reactor előadás (lftr-msr)

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 ...

Rod adams facetime interview for thorium remix 2011

thoriumremix.com Is a documentary about the Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR). Rod Adams is a leading proponent of nuclear energy, and blogs at atomicinsights.com . Rod agreed to be interviewed for THORIUM REMIX 2011 via FaceTime, and for me to share the semi-raw interview footage. (As you can probably infer from the interview footage... I was not a very good interviewer and we had technical issues. The worst of the technical issues are cut out for the sake of your sanity trying to pick thru the footage.)

(it vo) "aim high", puntare in alto con il torio

Voce fuori campo di "Aim High (Puntare in Alto)", una presentazione del fisico americano Robert Hargraves. L'obbiettivo è di cercare di risolvere tutta una serie di problemi con un progetto ambizioso e chiaro sin dall'Inizio, basato sull'Energia dal Torio, con il Reattore MSR (o LFTR). Gli obbiettivi sono: a) arrestare il riscaldamento globale b) produrre energia meno cara del Carbone c) portare prosperità (e bassi tassi di natalità) ai paesi in via di sviluppo Un calcolo viene sviluppato sul costo di costruzione di un reattore di 100 MW, per rendere possibile la vendita a paesi poveri. L'obbiettivo è di avere un KW-ora a meno di 3 centesimi di dollaro: il prezzo che Hargraves propone per battere il Carbone! Viene anche discussa la possibilità di diminuire le importazioni di petrolio fabbricando combustibili sintetici (a partire dall'idrogeno nell'aria e dal Carbonio nella CO2) e il ricaricamento delle auto elettriche dall'energia fornita dai reattori al Torio. Hargraves riprende perfino lo studio di Dennis Meadows ("I limiti della crescita"), con cui aveva interagito molti anni fa al Dartmouth College. Ecologia intelligente e Nucleare al Torio: una combinazione interessante.

Resting rates and electrical circuit data is also coming up in this section along with many important key words. Maya says Use Lithium + Magnesium for Metals I'm not sure if their referring to whatever Nuclear Reaction we'd use for Jet Propulsions or in reference to the core and outside of the space ship. There was an invention that came up dealing with HEAT and METALS... I wonder if that's what it means? quote Resistivity values were experimentally determined using charge storage methods ... were tested for charge storage for NASA at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. My thoughts continued: Storage methods in carbon nanotubes came up for the fuel compartments for the UFO and for the Space Elevator in the past few videos. Make sure you see all of them to get all the data you need to reach your goals...

Flibe logo animation

I put this animated logo together for Flibe Energy, a Huntsville based R&D company involved in reviving a lost nuclear technology based off of Thorium in a molten salt solution. More can be found at flibe-energy.com as well as here on YouTube. I put this together in Motion 4 over about eight hours or so. It took so long because I was putting a few new tools to use. For instance, the two orbiting particles had their motion linked to the grey swoosh lines, so they would move properly as the one element was rotated. The style is my interpretation of the company's existing logo and webpage, which I can not claim to have any involvement it. The flickering film filter present at the start of the animation was added because I felt the logo was retro in design, befitting the era the technology came from. However, I removed the filter by the time the logo is fully readable as the company is modern, as will be the improvements they have planned for molten salt technology.
