Thorium, unlike uranium, which is commonly used in the generation of nuclear power, is abundant in nature. It is found in small amounts in most rocks and soils, and is about three times more plentiful than uranium. Uranium, on the other hand, is only found in small amounts in most rocks and also in sea water.
He said that the same amount of energy could be produced from one ton of thorium as from 200 tons of uranium or 3.5 million tons of coal. Solar panels come at a cost because they need other things such as batteries and, when it rains, you will need some form of back-up such as a generator. So diversity is key to sustainability on our planet. We can have wind, solar, geothermal and thorium-based energy. Solar and wind are tied to the fossil fuel industry and big money, and cannot provide the stable caseload we require.
However, Steenkamp said, the entire fuel chain of thorium reactors is still carbon-intensive, “therefore, we should not be fooled into thinking that it is a solution to climate change mitigation because many of the existing problems of using uranium-based fuel rods for nuclear reactors are still present in thorium processing”.First, the carbon-intensive processes required to mine [and] process the fuel will contribute to climate change instead of mitigating it.
If I enjoy the privilege all alone it shows how ungrateful I am, because I got the opportunity from a tweet here as well…all thanks to good work of cryptoverseJ
I'm sharing this because this was exactly how i saw so many posts about William church and how he was helping individuals with their trades and i decided to give it a try and luckly it went well, Contact him via his profile link below 👇👇 williamchurch09
