After the 2 megawatt prototype has undergone tests in September, China plans to build its first commercial thorium reactor. Measuring only 10 feet (3 meters) tall and 8 feet (2.5 m) wide, the ...

But unlike uranium which splits and releases energy, thorium goes through a series of nuclear reactions when exposed to neutrons until it emerges as an isotope of uranium called U-233. This isotope will readily split and release energy next time it absorbs a neutron. The type of reactor that can handle the thorium-urnaium fuel cycle would be a ...
