Book Review: “Sellout”

Jim Kennedy and John Kutsch tried to convince Washington deciders that the United States might need to have some key technologies kept domesticated. http://www.aquacraft.com/downloads/__trashed/sellout-review/

Book Review: The First Nuclear Era

Here is a review of Avin Weinberg’s auto biographical account of the development of nuclear reactors during what he called the first nuclear era.  It is a very informative book, and anyone who wants to have information rather than just opinions on nuclear power should read it. http://www.aquacraft.com/2019/04/26/book-review-the-first-nuclear-era/review-of-the-first-nuclear-era-1-2/

Phoenix/Gendale/Gilbert Single Family Water Study

Aquacraft is working with the Cities of Phoenix, Glendale and Gilbert to do an end-use study of water use in approximately 400 single family homes in the Phoenix metro area.  The data logging portion of the study is approximately 80% complete, and all logging and trace analysis are expected to be complete by the end […]

Thorium Energy Alliance Conference #8

Over 100 persons gathered in St. Louis on August 21 and 22, 2017 to listen to papers and discuss the advances in the development of advanced Molten Salt Reactors, and how these devices can be the basis for a true carbon free energy system (as opposed to the pseudo carbon free system offered by wind […]

Slide Show on Molten Salt Reactors for Boulder,CO

These are the slides from the presentation of April 20, 2017 on use of MSRs to supply non-carbon based power for the City’s energy future.  We have made some modifications to help clarify that molten salt reactors are a type of reactor, of which there are many proposed configurations.  Some of these rely on burning […]

Bill’s guest opinion on MSRs

This letter to the Boulder Daily Camera was published on February 26, 2017. In it we are arguing that Boulder Colorado should include the option of converting the existing power plant that serves the City from a coal/gas plant to advanced nuclear, using molten salt reactor technology.    

Bill’s Letter to New York Times

On Sunday February 19, 2017 the NYT published two stories that were weirdly related. One was on the death of the U.S. Nuclear Power industry, and the other was on the death of Mexico City due to lack of drinking water and their horrible dysfunction with wastewater management.  We wrote this letter to the editor […]

The problem is the fuel cycle

This short paper argues that the real problem with nuclear power is that the dominant fuel cycle based on low enriched uranium 235/238 is the source of most of our problems with nuclear proliferation.  If we switch from the Uranium/Plutonium fuel cycle to the Thorium/Uranium cycle, which for all practical purposes produces no weapons materials, […]

South Platte Distillation Concept

There are two major resources being wasted in the South Platter River basin: reusable return flows and heat from power plants.  There are currently an avearge of over 800,000 AF of water leaving Colorado at the State line, much of which could be reused.  There are also power plants with total output of 2000 MW […]

Molten Salt Reactors for Jordan?

The Kingdom of Jordan could be the first country in the world to obtain all of its water and power from advanced molten salt reactors.  There is an acute shortage of both water and power in the Kingdom to support the current population of over 9.5 million persons.  If the Jordan Atomic Energy Commission were […]
