Worlds Only! China Achieves New Nuclear Tech Breakthrough

Web Editor:Jiechuang Nuclear Instruments │ Published:: 2026-04-17 23:00:23

On November 1, the Chinese Academy of Sciences released the news that the fourth generation advanced fission nuclear energy system designed, developed and built by China independently— —Thorium based molten salt experimental reactorRecently completed in Wuwei, Gansu, andFirst realization of thorium uranium conversion inside the reactorThe construction of this nuclear energy system is expected to break China's dependence on uranium fuel for nuclear power, and use the abundant thorium element in China as nuclear fuel, providing important support for national energy security and sustainable development.


The newly built thorium based molten salt experimental reactor isAt present, the only molten salt reactor in the world that operates and achieves thorium fuel injection into the reactorThe thorium based molten salt experimental reactor is a nuclear energy system that uses thorium as nuclear fuel and liquid fluoride molten salt as coolant, and has inherent safetywaterless coolingAdvantages such as normal pressure operation and high temperature output.

Thorium based molten salt reactor is a clean and efficient energy system, which is combined with high-temperature molten salt energy storageHigh temperature hydrogen productionThe combination of solar energy, wind energy, coal gas, oil and chemical industry can form a multi energy complementary and low-carbon composite energy system and low-carbon chemical system.



Jiechuang Nuclear Instrument (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. has always taken the localization of nuclear electronics technology as its first goal. Through continuous technological accumulation, it has developed a series of core components and products for nuclear electronics. On this basis, representative laboratory nuclear instruments (high-purity germaniumγ) have been successively launched in recent years; Spectrometer, alpha; Spectrometer, screen ionization chamber, flow gas low background alpha; /β Measuring instruments and portable instruments (portable lanthanum bromide spectrometer, wound contamination detector, water and food radioactivity detector), etc.
