I live in a country that has a medical reactor, that has operated for years. It's accepted. The general population have great fears, about Nuclear Waste deteriation timeline, Leakage & Explosion/Burnout. Thorium reactors operation purportedly solve these problems. Currently the coal mines are being shut down. Will Thorium Reactors be ready for replacement of boiler operations, before all the generators are bulldozed ??? 😮 I mean inline operation testing/operation....

My only problem with placing a nuclear reactor on a barge is river flooding. After having lived near Pittsburgh most of my life i have many memories of coal barges during river flooding break free, slam into bridges damaging them and sink. What then is your solution of anchoring barges in such a manner that during floods they cannot break free nor sink under high water river flooding. Can you anchor a barge in such a manner that it can rise and fall naturally but stably during high tides on the ocean or river flooding in rivers? Can you protect a barge from being struck by other vessels like the Frances Scott Key Bridge was?

It may be maniac and fanatic sort of thing but honestly moon contains around hundreds of millions of tons of thorium to powe r earth for couple of millenia. So why don't do this ?

Great video thanks 😊

You have to consider the exstreme carrosion that comes from molten salt thorium reactors that is a big problem these things can and will shorten the life of the reactor

There are no perfect majic bullets

Everything looks good in theory but in practice its a whole diffrent things

Molten salt thorium reactors are very carrosive. Making it high maintainence and the short life of the reactor and componets

Cheap abundant energy?!? Oh the WEF is going to hate that. How are super rich tyrants going to stay in power if there isnt scarcity,conflict suffering and fear???

Maybe build a reactor at an old coal plant

Does the Pa element then waste when stripping from the Th?

You go, Buster!

Kirk is friggen awesome. And my exposure to this incredible technology.

A brilliant man. He summed up in a few seconds what I have been saying for years. You have to TRAIN people. You see all these companies advertising for experienced this and experienced that. No one wants to invest the time, money, and effort to train and mentor people and that is why America is a failing country with a diminishing manufacturing base. The trades are underwater. We should have made Rickover in charge of the whole damn country. maybe we would still be number one!

Nader has more critical thought processes going to the toilet than this nuclear stooge Schellenberger has all year.

01-07-2025, Kirk Sorensen of Flibe Energy: Thorium Fuel Cycle. Good work!!! Thanks to Kirk Sorensen for explaining things clearly about the thorium fuel cycle, thorium energy technology and safety/security to humanity. Do not give up. Keep going!! You are not alone. A reason: to protect and safeguard the planet: Earth's life, land, clean air, living things and humans civilization. The peaceful, gorgeous and clean planet: Earth. ☀️🌎⛪♥️🙂👏

The crazy volume on this supercut was so distracting I just watched the original.

Koo koo

The SMRs have been around for quite a while... Trudeau is correct, its a good energy plan... combined with geo-thermal ... its a win win.

Yes build nuvlear powr plants and data centers in the canadian north and use the natural cold for cooling to save money

As a Canadian, he is full of himself! To anyone thinking about immigrating to Canada, you will be waiting months for medical care, you could die before treatment. Utilities cost are some of the most expensive in the world. Crime in major metropolitan cities is rampant! Do your homework.

Too bad you fock it for Alberta and are energy sector!

How could they elect this pos

I know. I love Canada 🇨🇦

You are one step away from Bret Kugelmass's position. He says that LWRs are inherently safe and the added safety measures make them less safe.

Captain KIRK !!

Shut up Justin , go away .

My morning brain could not understand why Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain Kirk and Dan Brown are talkong about nuclear reactors

At 27:00 Love Kirk Sorensen's justified "eyes-rolling" and his reply emphasising his preference for "Walk-away safe, low cost, "high temperature near ambient pressure" TMSR's; and the disappointing trend of a pursuit of high pressure "light water" SMR no safer than last century's LW Reactors..

That's super fucking cool but when are the things done? I really hope that building a reactor won't take 20 years

@gordonmcdowell I'll try a 3rd time to post. (my answer is not going thru). Thanks for the original. Not to sound rude, but the sound level there is better. I have not seen the complete video through, but it was better the parts I saw. I don't know Davinci resolve studio. May I suggest you ask here r/davinciresolve/

Great talk, I always love to hear Kirk talk

What a dork.

What's going on with the sound level?! Quite annoying.

Nuclear power is suppressed. If they had kept the momentum and consistantly increased commitment to nuclear going that they had in the 60s. Modular ultra save reactors with proper waste management systems would have been invented and perfected by now. The cost of energy would have dropped dramatically. Its the worst form of corruption. The amount of people who have died from pollution, the amount America has been held back just to ensure profits is insane. History will uncover the political bodies that held back the technology And hopefully bring in policy to prevent this form of evil from happening again. They traded the prosperity of the nation for personal profits

The book Jack Spencer is promoting ("Nuclear Revolution") can be found here: www.amazon.com/Nuclear-Revolution-Powering-Next-Generation/dp/088890357X

The NRC is receptive to the Advance Act??????????? Where did you get that? They already said they would not comply with the most important aspect of the Act. They said they would not consider the positive aspects of nuclear only the negative, only safety and safety at any cost.

too much sectarianism. Everyone thinks they have the one true path to energy. Wasted tribalism instead of unity.

we do not face an existential crisis. we face a challenge that can be solved.

An American solar-oriented energy system would have a lot of utility-scale solar near urban load centers, especially east of the Mississippi River, and although agrivoltaics can reduce competition for land somewhat, a large-scale solar PV buildout will consume a lot of land, right when we want to be doing reforestation and rewilding to claw back some biodiversity and ecosystem integrity, nourish stocks of soil organic carbon, and so on. There's a solar-food-rewilding trilemma and you could even throw cool roofs (solar radiation management) into the mix too. This, on top of the land use change and other environmental impacts related with the large raw materials throughput. In the medium term, the EROI of earth-abundant PV technologies might end up being ~35 (rather than teetering on the edge of the Net Energy Cliff at 10-15) whereas nuclear could reasonably hit 2,000-10,000, with a microscopic raw materials throughput.

The current german goverment does not like that and tries to proof that we can do everything with wind, sun and batteries. Germany has one of the highes energy costs, german companies have to produce elsewhere because of that, but lets see how long Germany can go this way.

Serious question - what happens if a plane flies into it? It seems to me it'll just stop, with some radioactivity needing some 'tidying' up (probably not our biggest concern at that moment). How long does U233 stay U233 before it fissions? And the reactor would suddenly, instantly stop from said external event, how much U233 would be 'available for sale' on the market?

Jerry Jones needs to listen to this

I just stumbled on this clip. That was a good interview either Dr. Stephen Boyd !

They (State, Local, Federal Govts) should definitely fund this! It's a Win-Win all around. This will yield more jobs, provide energy , boost high tech education in the region, and boost the economy big time. Captain Kirk needs Dilithium Crystals for the Future!

A molten salte reactor on a boat is a really stupid idea: the molten salte is not at all compatible with water. The fuel salt would partially dissolve and depending on the temperature produce highly corrosive and toxic HF and possibly even concentrate the remaining fuel (as oxide forming one at a time from U, Pu, Th). One of the challanges for a molten salt reactor is keeping water out, e.g. with an extra intermediate fluid cycle between the reactor and the turbines. Binging up such obviously stupid ideas damages the credibilty.

Magen til uinspireret kommunikationsteknik - ahh, ehhh, bla. blahh, ahhhh ahhhh ehhh, hvornSr begynder seaborg at arbejde professionelt?? aaahhhnd theee Man gider sompelt hen ikke høre på det drævende lort. En forsættelse af hidtidige erfaringer. Arbejder Seaborg videre i dét tempo bl'ir der aldrig nogen Dansk Thoriumreaktor. Dette bekræfter det generelle indtryk af dette her projekt, som har dannet sig gennem årene, hver gang Seaborg har været personligt på. Ingen dynamik! Elendigt salg af en brilliant idet, der kunne sælge sig selv, men som man får bræget død. Mad management - ingen fremskridtsrapporter. Konkurrenterne løber med det hele. Slapt. Ynkeligt. En død Dansk sild - det er sådan det fremtræder - hele vejen igennem. Surt. 😥😕☹😫😩😓😞😣😖☹🙁🤐

The main problem with Bob's experiment is that he is exposing the salt and materials to oxygen and water. Without oxygen and water in the mix, salt for MSRs aren't that corrosive.

You should just go to China and stop wasting your time in US, shithole country at this point
