China’s Institute of Modern Physics, part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is building what it calls the world’s first ...

From the world’s first in-reactor thorium breeding confirmation to a dual PWR-HTGR plant and commercial supercritical CO₂ ...

Thorium reactors are emerging as a groundbreaking advancement in nuclear power, analogous to solid-state batteries in their superior potential. A Danish company is on the brink of making these small ...

Chinese scientists successfully converted thorium-232 into uranium-233 within an experimental thorium molten salt reactor, validating the technical feasibility of the thorium fuel cycle. This ...

What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis has been hiding in plain sight, buried within the Earth’s crust? Imagine an energy source that is not only abundant and efficient but also safer ...

Thorium in the fuel only serves to blunt the reactivity in the reactor resulting from high U-235 enrichment and consequent high burn-up. The U-233 resulting from the transmutation of thorium is also ...

China’s thorium reactor is so important because it serves as an opportunity for the United States to move into the thorium space and increase both its soft power and global influence. In April 2025, ...

India holds the world’s largest thorium reserves, and thorium use not only offers energy independence but also virtually eliminates proliferation risk ...

Researchers from the University of Liverpool and Copenhagen Atomics say that salt purity is the critical factor in preventing ...

Denmark's Copenhagen Atomics has signed a Letter of Intent with Rare Earths Norway to secure future access to thorium - the key fertile material in its molten salt reactor technology - extracted from ...
