Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
Nuclea Energy SSR-W (Stable Salt Reactor–Wasteburner) is a molten salt nuclear reactor design in which fuel is dissolved in a molten salt coolant held within static fuel tubes rather than solid fuel rods, allowing operation at low pressure with passive safety characteristics. The Wasteburner variant is engineered to use reprocessed spent nuclear fuel as its fuel source, aiming to reduce the volume and longevity of nuclear waste while generating heat for electricity.
