ANEEL, a new nuclear fuel made by combining thorium and enriched uranium, has successfully ...

CCTE’s ANEEL fuel successfully reached more than 60 GWd/MTU of burnup in the INL’s Advanced Test Reactor, marking the completion of a multiple ...

The results are good news for the thorium-HALEU fuel cycle, set to grow in relevance as advanced reactors grow smaller and ...

A thorium-enriched uranium fuel blend has achieved record burnup levels in U.S. tests, while multiple partnerships are advancing small modular reactor projects to power energy-hungry AI data centers.

Nuclear fuel company Clean Core Thorium Energy announced its patented ANEEL fuel has successfully reached more than 60 ...

Scientists have built the first-ever thorium reactor. Thorium is both more easily accessible and less dangerous than uranium—the most common fission fuel. The system also uses molten salt instead of ...

A team from the Nuclear Research and Consultancy Group (NRG) the Netherlands has built the first molten salt reactor powered by thorium in decades. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X ...

It reads more like a 1950s space race vision of the future than a pragmatic 21st Century theory, but we could now be a step closer to driving a nuclear-powered car. In light of the recent events in ...

We took a look at the element tritium a short time ago. A "high octane" and ultra-rare nuclear isotope of which we have a global supply you could fit in an XL-sized suitcase. A supply that small could ...

NASA’s Lunar Prospector spacecraft mapped lunar elements while orbiting the Moon in 1998 and 1999. Now, a team of scientists led by David Lawrence at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico has ...

Talk of a large-scale U.S. nuclear renaissance in the post-Three Mile Island era has long been stalled by the high cost of new nuclear power plants, the challenges of safeguarding weapons-grade ...
