Abstract
A molten salt reactor is disclosed. In some embodiments, the molten salt reactor comprises a containment vessel; a molten salt chamber disposed within the containment vessel; a molten salt mixture disposed within the molten salt chamber; and a heat exchange system at least partially disposed within the molten salt chamber. In some embodiments, the molten salt reactor comprises one or more of a shutdown mechanism, a thermally activated failsafe mechanism, and/or a passive reactivity control system. The shutdown mechanism, for example, may be coupled with the molten salt chamber, the shutdown mechanism comprising a material that when inserted into the molten salt chamber will inhibit fission reactions within the molten salt mixture. The thermally activated failsafe mechanism, for example, may be coupled with the molten salt chamber, the thermally activated failsafe mechanism passively inhibits fission reactions within the molten salt mixture.
