What is the working principle of thorium based fast breeder reactor?
thorium is breed to make uranium-233 fuel
How will thorium be used in the future?
Thorium will be probable in the future very important as fertile material in nuclear breeder power reactors.
What is the chemical element of thorium?
Thorium: natural chemical element, metal, solid, radioactive, actinoids family, period 7, atomic number 90, used in breeder reactors, etc.
Is thorium used in nuclear reactors?
Not as fuel, but it can be used in breeder reactors as breeding material to make fissile Uranium-233.
Which elements are used for nuclear reactors in India?
Uranium. There is some interest in using thorium in the future. Thorium cannot be used directly as fuel in a reactor as it does not fission, it requires a fast breeder reactor to convert it to Uranium-233 which does fission.
Skech of nuclear reacter?
How can you skech it
Why thorium is not used as fuel in nuclear reactors?
Thorium is and can be used as a fuel in nuclear reactors. It just happens to be not fissile, so it needs a neutron flux to create Uranium-233, which is fissile. There are pros and cons of using Thorium. For more information, please see the Related Link below.
What is the common compound of thorium?
Common compounds of thorium: thorium dioxide, thorium trifluoride, thorium tetrafluoride, thorium tetrachloride, thorium triiodide, thorium diiodide, thorium tetraiodide, thorium nitrate, thorium oxalate, thorium carbide, thorium sulfides, thorium nitride, thorium oxinate, etc.
Which isotope of uranium is the most sought after to create nuclear bombs?
Uranium-235, found in natural Uranium at a level of 0.72%Uranium-233, produced in breeder reactors from Thorium-232
How do you find obsidian in Minecraft Pocket Edition?
make the nether reacter
Why you use slow neutrons instead of fast neutrons in nuclear reaction?
in reacter U-235 fission is due to slow neutrons because in reacter the probability of fission from fast neutron is approximatly zero.
In Oct 2004where did the P M of India inaugurate the prototype fast breeder reactor?
This is at Kalpakkam, I don't know which state. See Link below and go to section on Thorium Fuel Cycle
