Old story!!! I am done with the click baiting on a reality that just will never happen. This "IDEA" is now as credible as climate change. A golf ball for $100 dollars that will power everything everywhere..... Yawn...... Stop talking to raise money and deliver! maybe "where's the beef" is more clear to you? 70+ years and nothing. For all it's down falls Uranium delivered you have not.
I think that China already built a Thorium reactor.
How can I invest?
Can’t we just get AI to figure this shit out for us RIGHT NOW? 😂
In the U.S., we have enough depleted uranium already stockpiled to fully power the country for over 500 years. To be clear, this is the non-fissile U-238 that was a byproduct of uranium enrichment. Like thorium, depleted uranium would require new 4th gen breeder reactors to work, but unlike thorium, we wouldn't need to mine anything. It's already just sitting in a stockpile in Indiana. They currently don't know what to do with it, so the military is using it instead of lead for artillery and tank armor. Note that depleted uranium is not radioactive. Studies have shown it's less toxic than lead.
I have said for years Thorium should have been used and Uranium should not, the govt wants Uranium for their missiles etc so they dont want to use Thorium
The reason Thorium is not used as fuel for reactors is greed and the biproduct can't easily be used in weapons uranium has a high energy yield and unfortunately a high waste yield due to the same greed but they can still sell leftovers for weapons we could run the current waste at half capacity to draw double the amount of output but we don't have enough reactors and profit wouldn't impress shareholders. Tesla was onto the real solution to low cost energy until jp morgan shut him down.
DENMARK SHOULDNT BE ENGAGED IN SUCH HIGH TECH AREAS.
Why not? Denmark has for decades been on the forefront of innovative high tech areas
I ❤ you guys.
Remember the star trek prime directive....
I would support thorium reactor power generation. Humanity deserves to have this or better❤❤❤
Didn't they(US government) create thorium reactor back on the 50s?❤❤❤
No, the second molten salt reactor was supposed to be with thorium. But they did create the molten salt reactor experiment, just using uranium.
You know this will never get off the ground becuase energy companies won't make money. Instead youve just given away your IP and made aware to all the energy companies your about to make them all loose money. How do you think they will respond ? You were better off to just do what you want privately and to have never told anyone. I'll bet this never sees the light of day past a nicely perceived TED talk video. Oh wait, there one application, you might get snapped up for space craft power systems but that's it, it will never benefit the consumer market, us consumers are meant to consume and give away our life's earning to capitalism.
Good, Hope you can make this work 🙏
oil and gas companies have been trying to bury nuclear for generations now. oil and gas are destroying the planet. it is 10 degrees Fahrenheit warmer on average where i live than it was this time of year 20 years ago.
Great talk !
Nobody mentions the main problem with Thorium. The ignition problem.
Energy chart: clearly somebody can't get that we need to reduce population in case we want to survive. Clean energy is a cool thing but we start to suffer now, imagine what gonna happen if rest of the world catch up with plastic and energy use, needing devices for everyone, Apple want them replaced every few months for our safety and as control group we take people who descended on this conference yes? rofl
This guy is everywhere on KZread and I’ve never once seen him address the proliferation problem.
Yep, wannabe scientists like Sabine are literally promoting this garbage and not going into further details like maintenance, operation , waste depositing/recooking costs.
I missed the part about proliferation?
It won't. Because you can't give cheap energy to people. That's why we investing billions into "green shit" that is expensive and not reliable.
Little correction here. An athlete, a soldier, or a lumber jack will easily put out 300 to 600 watts per hour buddy.
🎈 sub 🎉
I believe you may be allowed to run any experiments in Ukraine. Since we desperately need more electricity here. For domestic use and export.
Politicians here in Australia also tried to paint nuclear energy production in a very negative way but the thing that really annoyed me was when the clown said “the price is the bomb” classic shitcunt politics using sleight of hand tricks sliding fear into a shitty statement
A tested and proven technology without any exotic technology or minerals is Dr Holcomb's ILPG (in line power generator) that produces 200% - 500% over unity. It is patented but the company is under attack by naked shorting (like they did with gamestop). This is world changing technology with working units tested by many engineers from various companies. kzread.info/dash/bejne/l42Vr9aYcsitZ8o.html
Pie in the sky snake oil
Capitalists will NEVER let this happen.
India is using these breeder reactors for a long time.
I've been following the subject of Thorium powered nuclear reactors for 6 years with Kirk Sorensen and the Thorium Energy Conference 2018 in Brussels Belgium. Copenhagen atomics I believe in you!
A couple of things mentioned in the video that are really not valid points. 1. Nuclear Accidents and deaths It was stated that deaths are due to the evacuations themselves or failure to administer stable iodine tablets. That's like saying if I shoot you with a gun the real reason you died is because you were not wearing a flack jacket, the gun didn't harm you, it was the bullet you should have protected yourself from. Had the nuclear plants never been constructed no evacuation or administering of tablets would be necessary. Clearly if Chernobyl or Fukushima were wind and solar farms instead, then a disaster that would wipe them out (say a tornado or earthquake) would not require the evacuation around the wind or solar farm for hundreds of kilometers, nor would there be danger to the population close to those plants. Regardless I agree the total number of deaths from nuclear accidents is very small compared to other energy generation methods like coal or biomass. Blaming the accident remediation as the cause of deaths makes your argument less credible and puts a question mark on the Thorium technology. Collatereral damage is a direct result of operating the plants in the first place. 2. No humans in the Thorium plant for up to 50 years. I get that there are autonomous cranes and equipment so no human operators. However humans will need to enter the plant to maintain the autonomous systems. Cranes will not operate for 50 years without the need to perform either preventive maintenance (lubrication/cleaning/pest control) or repairs such as replacing burned out motors etc. The idea that humans would not need to enter the plant for the entire life of the plant is fantasy. At the very least there would need to be regular inspections. Minimizing human interaction is a good strategy, I get why that is good, but please don't overstate the case. It makes the technology less credible when you exaggerate like this.
I have a question. Does this means that you managed to eliminate the need of a driver fissile component to generate the chain reaction required to have U-233? You say you can use PU-239 as igniter, but not that it's required(as it used to be) to initiate and maintain the nuclear chain reaction. Thanks in advance.
Just like the new SCI FI series of V where they showed off their power supply that could power everything for a very long long time.
Copenhagen Atomics have build a reactor, just not a nuclear reactor. They have not fissioned a single atom of thorium yet. But they have made some lovely videos and burnt through a ton of investors' money
So instead of making big ones, make small one that say can power a car or a home and on so on in order that the energy companies are eliminated. Much greater over return than catering to the bandits. Tha would also free up enormous sums of money after they're all up and running. Plenty of free energy devices (50,000+) already patented which forbidden production. See they only like the ones that are detrimental because you're talking about satan and it's minions running the show. Stand with God and tell them to f off, there's not a damn thing they can do.
Hydrogen created by Thorium would be a game changer. Would kill Old Dirty Heavy Battery EVs.
Government will never let this happen
It’s just the cheapest energy until we actually use it for energy.
Long loss of a education by having a education explaining for hours cause school taught you to i just hit punch line and leave they have my number
Thorium is a scam.
yeah this is a scam
I always knews since i watch this other video on energy nuclear power is going to be the solution to energy
one correction: CO2 emissions are not a problem as they do NOT cause climate change yet increase plant growth.
Wheres this reactor then prove the concept
Just Amazing..!
China already build thorium power plant
the math is closer to $16 refined less then that because it is WASTE MATERIAL and the RARE EARTHS are what pays for the mining now...
Dont fly a Boeing .....
Only 1000X? Bit conservative, but that's good for doing basic calculations. Nanotechnology is kept quiet about its uses, but the gross attributes of block circuits for specific purposes is easily deduced by Electronics Engineers with a bit of Epicyclic experience.
Less then a minute in and i can tell this is BS if i have that much energy i will use it all and want more. Facts
