I watched the first snake oil crap video Bobby, but (even though I am not in bed asleep and am watching cricket Aus v SA) I'll be stuffed if I am going to 'invest' over two hours on the second which will probably be more of the same in the first crap video.

Bobby....the first video had a series of images, and the only one I saw which had any connection with a thorium reactor was some miniature (said to be) thorium reactor thing on a desk.  The rest was rubbish and the script was fancifull snake oil gibber, and that is exactly what you post.

I am out of this Thread......unless you put some other crap up.....which is likely, but I have made my point.  You post gibber.

Are you it is the light?



thanks
I'd be more than happy for you to go and not come back.

The Thorium Conspiracy


According to numerous sources, there's an alternative to uranium. Though thorium isn't perfect, it's more plentiful and arguably safer than uranium. So why aren't we using it?

So the question remains -

why hasn't Australia invested even one penny into a Thorium research reactor?



good job sir bobby !

you have become quite a powerhouse , and a real blessings

to humanity .. I am very proud of who you have become

many blessings!

Thanks master Light,
you are welcome to contribute too.
Imagine safe, cheap, unlimited power, forever!
The figure in one video was 3 cents per kilowatt hour.

cheers

If we only learn one thing about Thorium look at this graph:


...

Most of the Uranium in the world is the
BLUE
circle.
Only 0.7% of it is useful - yes - that tiny
RED
sliver on the graph.
U235 is as rare as platinum.

However the
GREEN
circles represent the amount
of Thorium in the world
that can be made to fission and produce energy.
Thorium is abundant and cheap.
It's only very weakly radioactive.
You could have a brick of it on your coffee table at home and it wouldn't hurt you.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium

Quote:
The most stable isotope, 232Th, has a half-life of 14.05 billion years, or about the age of the universe; it decays very slowly via alpha decay, starting a decay chain named the thorium series that ends at stable 208Pb. In the universe, thorium and uranium are the only two radioactive elements that still occur naturally in large quantities as primordial elements.[a] It is estimated to be over three times more abundant than uranium in the Earth's crust, and is chiefly refined from monazite sands as a by-product of extracting rare-earth metals.

Thorium power would exceed all other forms of energy used by man today, that includes, nuclear, wind, solar, oil, gas, coal, bio, geothermal combined!

anything...

anything.. is better than renewables right now...

anything!!!

Quote:
Terry McCrann says the wind on election day is why green-mad South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill had to go: 

On Saturday, as South Australian voters headed for the polls, the wind was blowing strong and continuously...

The real time data from the market operator AEMO showed more than 1000MW were being pumped out by wind in SA alone...

Alas, it didn’t last. As the vote counting got underway and Weather-dill’s prospects of leading SA into an even more committed North Korean-Gaian future dribbled away like power out of a listless wind-deprived windmill, wind generation in
SA dropped to just 200MW.


The electricity price in SA — just to stress, at night, when you actually need the lights to be on, to, if nothing else, count the votes turfing Weather-dill out —
spiked to over $100 a MW hour.


That’s what the price generally is when the wind don’t blow and the sun don’t shine at a minimum;
it often spikes to over $1000 for a whole day when the wind don’t blow.
No wonder, there were enough sane South Australians wanting Weather-dill out.

The $100 price, by the way, is about four times what it used to be when SA had sane politicians and was getting most of its power from reliable coal-fired stations.


Do the math: the $1000 that it often gets to in SA is 40 times the “old” price
.


but renewables are cheaper... just ask the loons of the Climate Church...  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Thanks Mechanic ,
my bet is that Thorium will win the race.

Imagine cheap, pollution free, emission free power for everyone.

Thorium is such an interesting subject.
If global warming is true then Thorium is the pollution free answer
that will save the world and also take 3rd world countries out of poverty.

Ha! 61% say the world is warming. In line with my poll that Booby deleted. Of course, the dupe can’t think for himself and realise nobody believes his idiotic ice age rubbish. No, it is all a dastardly plot by members of my board  Roll Eyes

Quit as Mod so a reasonable person can run Environment, Bobby! You are not trusted as a Mod so nobody will post in your Dubyne MRB.

And Thorium was thrashed out earlier, a teensy bit better than uranium is all.



Monk,
Yes I have suspicions that in your secret members room -
a plot was cooked up to vote for global warming.
Why was I not allowed to see the members room?   Embarrassed

If you would have watched the Thorium videos you'd at least be informed.
The only reason that Uranium reactors got all the research funds
was because they could help to produce atomic bombs -
not because Uranium is better.

Look at the graph again.
This is perhaps the most important graph you'll ever see in your life.
We've all been dudded by the nuclear powers insatiable appetite for
nuclear weapons.
We're all the much poorer for it.
Thorium has the capability to give us safe electric power for 3 cents per kilowatt hour for 10s of 1000s of years.
Thorium is a miracle.
All we use of Uranium is that tiny red sliver!

I was reading about some designs of the 4th gen reactors running close to salt boiling and have enough heat for hydrogen creation, could solve mobility issues as well.

I've been hearing this for years and years and years....

there's no development...

there's no interest in developing this power...

australia is too stupid to develop such power...

until highly developed countries have an interest in this power nothing will ever change..

Thorium will never get off the ground...

I heard some years ago that China was trying to develop This Tech....

but so far they are still Building Clean Coal power stations...

and thats what we should be doing RIGHT NOW>>>>
