Subcritical

We may end up using ISRU provided Thorium in subcritical reactors that my friend Roger Lenard talks about so eloquently. ❋ Unknown (2009)

We should focus on having all nations ratify the CTBT, including the U.S., and put a stop to all activities, such as subcritical and stockpile experiments, that go against the spirit of the treaty and furthermore provoke non-nuclear nations into becoming nuclear nations. ❋ Unknown (2009)

One reactor design is to use a "subcritical" fast reactor and drive it to power production via a spallation beam. ❋ James Killus (2008)

The process for a new NTS EIS will include scoping meetings, public written/oral comment frameworks and a full discussion of how activities such as subcritical and nuclear simulation testing – and more - relates to the mission of the NTS. ❋ Unknown (2008)

This work uses "subcritical" tests that do not involve full nuclear detonations, and computer simulations of how a weapon would explode. ❋ Sanhita Reddy (2009)

Nuclear power, from uranium, thorium/uranium and or subcritical thorium are all easily implemented. ❋ Unknown (2009)

This new approach is called the accelerator-driven subcritical reactor (ADSR). ❋ Post (2010)

It also occurs by the collision of high-energy particles in the Earth's atmosphere C14, with particle accelerators and subcritical fussion reactors. ❋ Unknown (2010)

A conventional (or subcritical) plant typically operates at temperatures up to 1050 degrees Fahrenheit and has an efficiency of between 33 and 39 percent. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The joint venture will also make subcritical boilers of more than 300 MWs, Thermax said. ❋ Ameya Karve (2010)

Thermax will hold a 51% stake in the joint venture to make supercritical and subcritical boilers, while Babcock ❋ Ameya Karve (2010)

They might also be used to develop nuclear waste-free, subcritical LENR-based fission reactors that would be much safer, less expensive, and burn a much wider variety of fuels than today\'s Gen-2 light water reactors or even proposed designs for future Gen-4s. ' ❋ Unknown (2009)

Therefore, in principle, the subcritical nuclear reactor may be able to convert all transuranic elements into (generally) short-lived fission products and yield some energy in the process. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The other role of a subcritical nuclear reactor or ADS is the destruction of heavy isotopes, particularly actinides but also longer-lived fission products such as Tc-99 and I-129. ❋ Unknown (2009)
