How America can be energy independence and further nuclear proliferation? Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors.

Created by T.V. on August 02, 2013

Thorium can solve our energy crisis for thousands of years safely, without the possibility of meltdown or transuranic waste. Thorium can use in a The Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR) design closely mirrors the way nature works to generate heat inside the earth's liquid core, and following nature's design brings many important benefits that uranium solid fuelled reactor designs do not have. These advantages include greatly increased safety, efficiency, and greatly reduced waste. more. In a liquid form the fuel is able to circulate and extract nearly 100% of the energy available. Traditional solid fuel rods need to be removed from the reactor long before the energy content within them is used up. The waste can't be used for nuclear weapon production. Propose: budget $1.5 billion.
