"Th" Thorium Documentary (2013 - 2013)
The amount of waste generated, the amount of energy generated, and the expanded versatility of this new "Molten Salt Reactor" call into question our perception of nuclear power. How safe can a nuclear reactor be, if we free ourselves from the "technological lock-in" of uranium oxide solid fuel?

Thorium Summary
Dissolving thorium into molten salts allows more efficient conversion into energy than today's uranium oxide fuel rods. The amount of waste generated, the amount of energy generated, and the expanded versatility of this new "Molten Salt Reactor" call into question our perception of nuclear power. How safe can a nuclear reactor be, if we free ourselves from the "technological lock-in" of uranium oxide solid fuel?
