What if the next big thing in nuclear energy was a dusty old idea from the Cold War era? Once considered to power nuclear bombers, molten salt reactors (MSRs) are in the spotlight, promising safer, ...
Chemists report that radiation-induced chemical reactions may help mitigate the corrosion of metals in a new type of nuclear reactor cooled by molten salts. High temperatures and ionizing radiation ...
Abilene-based Natura Resources, which won the first federal construction permit for a liquid-fueled molten-salt reactor in 2024, will work with NGL Water Solutions Permian to explore deploying its 100 ...

US molten salt reactors leap forward as new nuclear fuel clears key hurdle
Idaho National Laboratory has produced what the Department of Energy describes as the first batch of fuel for the world’s first fast-spectrum molten salt reactor, clearing one of the longest-standing ...
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has issued a construction permit to Abilene Christian University (ACU) to build the Natura MSR-1, marking the first U.S. university research reactor approved in ...
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear fission reactors in which either the fuel and/or the coolant is a molten salt. Molten salt is salt which liquifies at elevated temperatures and can store ...
