Dr. Charles Forsberg of MIT and ORNL (Oak Ridge National Laboratories) talks about the potential benefits of the Molten Salt Reactor. In the future, fusion systems can be used to safely transmutate all the accumulated radioactive waste into safely disposable non-radioactive material from 430 plus nuclear reactors worldwide operating for the last 60 years. This … Read more
