This seminar explores the engineering innovations and future potential of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs), a promising Generation IV nuclear technology that offers numerous improvements over traditional reactors. MSRs utilize a fluid state mixtures of nuclear fuel dissolved in molten salts, which functions as both coolant and fuel, leading to inherent safety benefits and operational efficiencies not present in solid fuel designs. We will examine the fundamental operational mechanisms of MSRs, focusing on their thermal efficiency, resilience to core meltdowns, and superior capacity for managing nuclear waste through advanced fuel cycles. The discussion extends to the latest advancements in MSR technology, including material challenges, corrosion prevention, and thermal dynamics of molten salt under nuclear conditions. Additionally, we will evaluate the economic viability and environmental impact of MSRs, considering their role in a low-carbon future.
