Summary
The
Thorium Fuel Cycle
is a
Nuclear Fuel
Cycle
that uses thorium-232 as a fertile material to breed uranium-233, which can then be used as
Nuclear Fuel
. It offers potential advantages such as
Greater abundance
,
Reduced nuclear waste
, and
Enhanced safety
compared to
Traditional uranium-based cycles
, but faces challenges in terms of
Technological Development
and
Economic Feasibility
.
