    Thorium is about the same as U-238. They both require a breeder reactor to make them into viable energy source. We have warehouses full of surplus U-238, about 5000 years worth (they can't give it away) so it's not clear the various nuclear agencies will invest the time required to switch to Thorium.

    The battery be like : So molten salts, Lithium fluoride and Beryllium fluoride are the electrolyte, then Thorium-232 as the cathode and Uranium-238 as the anode, then sealed with Thick layer of Tungsten Carbide, plus Graphite as the separator, and PVDF mixture coat the electrode, (anode as U-238, and cathode as Th-232) . Operating Principle, In this setup, the U-238 anode undergoes radioactive decay, emitting alpha particles. These alpha particles collide with the surrounding LiF-BeF2 molten salt electrolyte, generating heat and releasing electrons. The released electrons flow through the external circuit, producing electrical energy that can be harvested for various applications. Meanwhile, Th-232 in the cathode captures the emitted alpha particles, completing the nuclear reaction cycle.Overall, this battery operates based on the heat and energy generated from the radioactive decay of U-238 and the capture of alpha particles by Th-232, with the molten salt electrolyte facilitating ion conduction and the various components providing structural support and stability. During charging, At the cathode (Th-232), electrons are supplied from the external source, causing Th-232 ions to undergo reduction and potentially form thorium metal or compounds.At the anode (U-238), electrons are removed and transferred to the external circuit, causing U-238 ions to undergo oxidation and potentially form uranium metal or compounds.The movement of ions through the molten salt electrolyte allows for the storage of electrical energy in the form of chemical energy within the battery.This process continues until the battery reaches its maximum storage capacity or until charging is stopped. Once charged, the battery can store the electrical energy until it is needed.When electricity is required, the battery can be discharged by connecting it to an external circuit. During discharge, the stored chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy as the redox reactions at the cathode and anode proceed in the opposite direction, providing a flow of electrons through the external circuit.

    Is anyone even looking at this? Assuming a one for one transfer in neutrons, it would take the fission of roughly 1kg of Uranium to mutate 1kg of Thorium. Using Thorium over mining Uranium has advantages for the future. But U233 could also be used in weapons. I am not sure Thorium is a completely safe nuclear tech. I'd much rather see some reactors that can eat some of our waste and plutonium reserves from all those old weapons.

    We need it, but won't have it in the foreseeable future, chiefly because of proliferation issues. MSRs must have attached reprocessing plants in order to get the U233 obtained from Th232. Moreover, U233 can also be made into something just as explosive as U235.

    • @UrbanBard1
      @UrbanBard1 Рік тому

      This is simpler than you think. The Protactinium 233 can be processed on site by running the blanket fluid through a Bismuth Redox tank. The Bismuth grabs the Pa233 and transports it out of the tank. Storing the Pa233 for 5 months means you get almost pure U233. No one , so far, has made a bomb out of U233. The problem is that a tiny portion of the Pa233 contains an element which is a very strong gamma ray projector. This would screw up electronics and be visible from space. Besides, it would be easier to steal U235 than work with U233. The radioactive waste from a MSR can be stuck in a mine for 10 years and then processed. 83% of the waste would be stable and of the 17% which is not, contains two useful radioactive elements. A Ton of MSR waste produces 340 pounds of material of which 75 pounds each would be Plutonium 238 and Strontium 90. The Pu238 is a heat source which lasts for 300 years. The Strontium 90 could be used to irradiate vegetables. E-Coli deaths could become a thing of the past. The rest of the hot waste can be dissolved in glass and buried.
