Talk:Subcritical reactor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If subcritical reactors could be made economical whereby they process unenriched nuclear materials such as natural uranium and thorium, you could ban the existence of any kind of enriched nuclear material outside a nuclear facilities process streamlines - meaning you couldn't even store enriched uranium or plutonium in drums as a weapon's reserve inside your nuclear plants, if it's radioactive, you keep reprocesssing it. This could cut down theft and proliferation issues tremendously, because you would have a clear way to catch people red handed. Sillybilly 16:48, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
