Close the cycle: an alternative approach for used nuclear fuel : Comments

By Ben Heard, published 1/2/2017

Even calling used nuclear fuel 'waste' is an appalling misnomer. It is more like an ore that requires processing and conditioning.

Yeah, I mean you should look at the history of aircraft development. We should definitely shut down all modern airlines because of the Hindenberg! I mean, just READ what happened to that thing!

I mean, if man had been meant to fly we would have been born with wings! (slaps hand to forehead)

It's called cherrypicking. The EBR2 ran well for *decades* and GE's PRISM plans are based on it. But hey, we can just build today's Gen3 passive safety reactors until the Chinese sell us all the breeders we want in a decade or so. China will mass produce breeder nukes cheaper than coal in just 6 years!
