Molten Salt Reactors and Thorium Energy, Second Edition is a fully
updated comprehensive reference on the latest advances in MSR research
and technology. Building on the successful first edition, Tom Dolan and
the team of experts have fully updated the content to reflect the
impressive advances from the last 5 years, ensuring this book continues
to be the go-to reference on the topic. This new edition covers progress
made in MSR design, details innovative experiments, and includes molten
salt data, corrosion studies and deployment plans. The successful case
studies section of the first edition have been removed, expanded, and
fully updated, and are now published in a companion title called Global
Case Studies on Molten Salt Reactors.
Readers will gain a deep understanding of the advantages and challenges
of MSR development and thorium fuel use, as well as step-by-step
guidance on the latest in MSR reactor design. Each chapter provides a
clear introduction, covers technical issues and includes examples and
conclusions, while promoting the sustainability benefits throughout.
