If they could make this work in a smaller format this would be soo cool. I could see things like this in a modular format perhaps and power large stores, schools, large cargo ships, locomotives, etc. I first heard the SMR idea my first thought was like instead of massive teamed boilers to heat large buildings why not one SMR link in a heat exchanger and tie to the existing system no more gas needed.

Liquid sodium is not something I would want anywhere near a reactor. I know it's been done- but I don't think it's such a hot idea. I'm a fan of molten salts for heat transfer, but liquid sodium is a nightmare. You would almost have to have all of the primary coolant loop in a sealed-off, inert gas environment in the case of primary coolant loop rupture. Sodium likes to react and when it does, it's violent. Molten salts are far more chemically stable and don't react violently. They can cause corrosion over time if you have any moisture in the system, but as long as you keep a system dry they're far safer than liquid sodium.

It feels ironic that he calls out oil and gas specifically because we're going to run out of it when we're also going to run out of uranium. Currently we're already running a global uranium deficit of a few thousand tons a year. If we had a ubiquitous reactor, the deficit would only explode. I'm not defending oil and gas and I'm not saying we shouldn't use nuclear energy. But I'm definitely saying that it's not the solution people like this want it to be. We don't have enough fuel for this to really be the answer. Thorium reactors are promising but those have yet to be realized

@mikecurry6847 i agree with the irony. however, i don't understand how there's a deficit when the price is so low. i'm not an expert in this whatsoever, but some googling, numbers from the NEA and IAEA, and help from chatgpt says that there's about 1 TW/h in a ton of uranium (at existing plant efficiency). because uranium is everywhere at low concentrations, existing estimates at reserves use $260/kg as the upper limit for economically viable uranium. using that number, it's estimated that there's about 8Mt. as of 2022, world power consumption is 160,000TW/h. that's 160,000 tons of uranium a year, to power the whole world just through current nuclear technologies. reserves would fail after approx 50 years. existing levels of nuclear power generation worldwide are 2,500TW/h per year. that's 2500 tons of uranium a year, 8,000,000 / 2500 = 3200 years. thoughts???

There are many ways to split an atom. This is one of them and indeed I would say a good bet for the cheap factory made reactor. Sodium cooled fast reactors already exist but the difference is they don't slow down those neutrons (fast) and as such require more fuel in the reactor to stay operational. Triga fuel lets you make the reactor smaller and safer. The biggest problem with those however is usually the use of liquid sodium which is a problem this reactor shares. The problem is mostly because sodium is flowing through pipes and any kind of leak of liquid sodium from a pipe is a huge danger and a hassle to fix. Terra Power has a solution to this problem which I hope these guys replicate. The solution is to simply not have the sodium in any pipes. All of the sodium sits in the big bucket built into the ground along with the reactor and the heat exchanger (heat exchange to solar salt because you don't want any leaks bewteen sodium and water) You can still circulate the sodium around but there is nowhere for it to leak other than the big hole in the ground where it's already supposed to be. Secondary benefit is that solar salt is very cheap and a good way to store thermal energy so you can have your power plant load following while still running the reactor itself at max power.

And Solar Salt is just a type of salt typically used for storing heat at high temperatures because it's compatible with water (unlike most other salts), it's 60% NaNO3 and 40% KNO3. It's named solar salt because it is used as the target for heating in the mirror based solar power plants where large arrays of mirrors concentrate on one spot to heat up the solar salt which can then be used all day and all night to generate power.

So, it might be impossible for you but I play reactor simulators (Yes I know totally very realistic) but some are actually 1-1 to a real nuclear reactor. And most of them had automatic safety systems that cannot be turned off like cooling or scram. I somehow blew up both of them. One of them by raising rods to ~15% then very quickly pulling them all out fastly, cause increase of temp and pressure (its a preasure reactor) and kaboom. The other one, I some how always blow it up without trying. I try to start the reactor, I keep tripping the turbine when syncing despite being exactly in sync and at the exact speed. Whenever I lose power, for some reason, the emergency generators can never start and I can't get the emergency cooling online to keep the reactor level normal. Eventually rods get exposed and melt. If I was going to operate this reactor, don't let me near within 1000km of this facility. I'm serious.

So the thought is to make smaller.modular reactors by using a molten metal heat exchange with the reactor core. I can see this being helpful because to create steam plasma everything has to be under high pressure and there needs to be a containment vessel. Sodium, though, is an extremely reactive metal and will need to be contained using some very exotic alloys. That is the factor to overcome. Maybe use a salt in the heat exchange instead?

I been wondering about this. How does burnup will affect the stability of this fuel? you will have plenty of fission products as well as transmutation products that might make the hydride far less stable, possibly releasing the hydrogen and causing a serious build up of pressure within the fuel element also it will produce deuterium and tritium which they can change the reactivity of the reactor due them being better moderators than protium. Tho I guess it also could mean tritium production might be a business for this kind of reactors.

as soon as the CEO says "safe enough to fit in your back yard", alarm bells should start ringing in people's heads. Meltdowns are not the only danger for nuclear power, contamination and nuclear proliferation are no less important, and drastically widening the amount of people who can get their hands on nuclear fuel would have pretty severe consequences. Also, I want to stress this: the state that the reactor enters instead of a meltdown is still "hot and radioactive". this ensures that it's possible to operate without a containment building, but you'd still need to have a team of engineers watching over it to fix whatever's wrong.

When it is said that the fuel temperature reached 400C, does this mean a uniform temperature throughout the fuel, or just the surface? And how long does it take to cool down to ambient? I don't see any boiling at the surface of the core head, so I'm guessing it cools extremely rapidly? It's very interesting that 23 megajoules is the total energy released in the pulse, because this is about as much energy as 18 sticks of dynamite detonating. In fact, the TRIGA pulse lasts roughly the same period of time too, about 5 microseconds or so. But why no massive BANG then, just a quiet "clunk"? I suspect because most of the energy released is in the form of neutrons and gamma rays, which are absorbed uniformly throughout a large volume of water, and there is no phase change, so no gas and no blast wave produced, just evenly distributed moderate heating throughout a large volume of water and fuel.

I thought sodium metal reactors were thrown out 50 years ago. Simi valley California rocketdyne my backyard is the location of the first sodium reactor melt down and it was due to the nature of the sodium metal it oxidizes extremely easy and those oxides built up on in the cooling chanel's creating hot spots in the reactor making weird readings so they kept pushing and testing until it was too late and it melt down causing a clean up effort that is still ongoing. So I wonder how they solved or are going to solve that issue of oxide build up pretty cool though none the less I want one lol

it was not due to the nature of the sodium, but of the tetralin used to cool the pump seals. Tetralin, a hydrocarbon liquid, seeped into the primary coolant system through a pump seal and was decomposed by the high-temperature sodium. The decomposed tetralin clogged several narrow cooling channels used by the sodium system to remove heat from the reactor fuel elements. As the tetralin residues clogged the reactor's internal cooling channels, 13 of the reactor's 43 fuel elements overheated and were damaged.

So you're using hydrogen in fuel as a moderator like in thermal neutron reactors, but then you're trying to build a reactor using sodium as a coolant like in fast neutron reactor. If you're building a fast neutron reactor you can't use moderators, but if you're trying to build a thermal neutron reactor with liquid metal (which is questionable) then you won't have enough hydrogen in fuel as a moderator. So the question is: why won't you just build a fast neutron reactor which is safe enough by itself?

Texas announces plan for advanced nuclear reactors across the state worth over $50 billion. Texas Governor Greg Abbott and the Public Utility Commission of Texas have identified 61 possible sites across the state for new nuclear reactors. A recently-released state report on Advanced Nuclear Energy is hoping to bring in over $50 billion in new economic output to Texas, along with $27 billion in income for Texas workers.

That reactor can not be melted down because it is designed to work that way. Its a neutron source ? Perhaps Aalo can pivot some elements to power production, but "betting" on that is basically just that - a bet, the Bayesian priors are not in their favour, because smaller reactors need even HIGHER temps than larger ones to maintain efficiency due to thermodynamics, and this fuel is inherently low temp, regardless of the heat transfer fluid.

Ya surrounding it with sodium good idea. Throw some pure sodium in a chlorinated pool for fun.

*Guy messes with reactor controls triggering AI controlled Plasma ultrasonic holography pressure field using reactors own power as the only limit take control and sends message to Empire > Wolf predator gets deployed to potential sabotage attempt of reactor using his plasma ultrasonic cloaking suit to navigate safely through Ultrasonic field while everyone else is stunned in place by vibration of motor cells beyond communication but below harm aka Induced sleep paralysis* Not nuclear but would be the same security.. Always get approval from the dark side of the govt before playing games. 😛👽 *Points at Boeing Plasma force field and points at your nuclear reactor* Pressure potential greater than bottom of sea.. Ever seen ghost rider? When is a machine both alive and dead? When its melting but still holding form for purpose..
