Nuclear Reactors 609 - China National Nuclear Corporation Is Working On Pool-type Reactor For District Heating
My blogging about commercial nuclear reactors has focused on the generation of electricity from such reactors. In addition to generating electricity, the heat given off by nuclear reactors can also be used directly for industry and district heating.

Nuclear Reactors 608 - Terrestrial Energy Is Developing A Hydrogen Production System Utilizing Their Integral Molten Salt Reactor
I have blogged about molten salt reactors (MSR). In a MSR, nuclear materials are dissolved in a molten fluoride or chloride salt. The molten salt becomes both the fuel for the reactor and the coolant for the fission reaction. The meltdowns feared in conventional power reactors are impossible in MSRs.
