Nuclear Reactors 260 - New Process For Extracting Uranium From Seawater
Although currently uranium is mined from a variety of ore deposits worldwide, it is also possible to extract uranium from seawater. It is estimated that there are over four and a half billion tons of uranium in the water of the world's oceans. If it could be economically extracted, it could supply fifteen terawatts generated by conventional reactors for over five thousand years.
