Description

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) operate at higher temperatures and lower pressures than traditional Light Water Reactors (LWRs), making them up to 20% more efficient, inherently safer, and more compact. Furthermore, all nuclear waste isotopes are reusable, making them a promising candidate for clean, sustainable energy.
