How about Polands Plans?
Nope, Experimental\Novel Nuclear power reactors have a history of taking a long time, The Beloyarsk nuclear reactor (BN-800) started construction in 1983, but didn't see its first startup until 2014, but was mostly shutdown, its first full year of operation was in 2023. The BN-800 is also a Uranium-Plutonium fuel cycle which is far less complex than Thorium. Russia was planning to build a BN-1200 reactor but it was cancelled because breeders are a nightmare to operate.
Thorium is a dead end, & pretty much impossible to operate as a Breeder because of the neutron poisons created when U-233 fissiles. The US had its First Commerical Thorium Reactor operation in 1962 (Indian Pt Unit 1), but was shutdown by 1974 as un-economical Another issue is with the Production of U-232 which has a nasty gamma emission & its a neutron poison.
The age of nuclear power is nearly over as the world is running out of economically recoverable uranium. Uranium production peaked in 1980 and has been on a decline ever since as the mines deplete.
Already India completed 2 stage
I see my critical comment of why Thorium is a dead end got deleted. Gotta hide the truth from the people!

While people often talk about how India is lagging behind decades they do not include how many nuclear scientists in India have mysteriously died including Homi Bhabha who envisioned it. India's entire tech dream was sabotaged. Any guess who could have done it?

Even CIA Head at that time admitted it in a interview.
The major reason our nuclear program was delayed because of assaniation of our nuclear scientist.

Geo politics around supply of uranium,sanctions and killing of nuclear scientists is very important to mention
India is not part of NSG
Few countries does not want india to become a member of NSG
Honestly at this point, in my personal opinion there's no real reason to restrict India from the NSG. The NPT holdup hasn't stopped a lot of other tech transfer so I think it would be an overall benefit to everyone.
@@atomicblender Tech transfer from whom?
No country gives nuclear technology just like a statement
Even if they transfer technology but the core technology is going to restrict that is what every country operates
Russians helps india but they don't give full technology and sharing of knowledge
Western countries absolutely no to india in any form of cooperation
By not being part of the NPT, India gets the same uranium access as Iran or North Korea.
@@atomicblenderUS and CIA killed our many nuclear scientists 😢😢
@@atomicblenderwe don't want western countries help. Their help will destroy your own house. And BTW US and Canada are asshole countries, especially Canada. We will never forget how USA killed our scientists and allowed China Pakistan Nuclear Proliferation just to keep a mental jihadist country close with Nuclear power for India. Apart from that, now they are cooperating not only because they love us. They want to contend China through India. We are not fools like UK and Canada who will lick ass of USA.
UPDATE: Most critical 2nd stage achieved breakthrough on 16/4/24 in India's 3 stage Thorium tech. 3rd stage capability has already been demonstrated. So first nuclear reactor in the world which can run without uranium has been achieved.

If you say "3 step plan" you can show three circles to represent the steps but, you're better off leaving them blank than blurring them.

In second stage of Indian Nuclear program
Fast breeder reactor uses
nuclear waste+ plutonium+thorium= electricity +U233( that is thorium) + plutonium
This reactor produce 120 % of nuclear fuel then how much it consume to produce electricity. One more thing this reactor use nuclear waste and plutonium to produce energy and convert thorium into U233.
This is not like any other fast breeder reactor (FBRs)& fast reactor. It's something different

Whenever I hear project delays in Bharat, i only think of lack of intent in the bureaucrats and fund problems. There are many talented geniuses in india, sadly we are unable to put all the necessary resources together.
Not true in this particular case. It is the nature of the technology itself that is causing the delays here. It is the same in ISRO and DRDO. Both of them also suffer many delays. But when BARC, ISRO, DRDO and CSIR (the four premier R&D agencies of India) get going, they really get going. Over the past several decades of failed or delayed projects, enough experience has been built up to the point that going forward into the future, these four will begin to compete with global R&D efforts and that is when the bureaucratic bottlenecks will rear their ugly head.
We have entered the 2nd stage, meaning we have completed the 2nd stage.
indias nuclear project is delay because of assassination of our nuclear scientists
Really like your video
much excited for it's completion
India must innovate as they are already 5 or 4th largest economy
Its Thorium reactor extremely complex technology India super close to conclude.
India already has Indian and Foreign sourced Nuclear reactor but Thorium reactor is new tech for whole world.
This is not a new technology . In fact, back in 1965 through 1970 at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee the scientists successfully created a Thorium Molten Salt Reactor that actually produced power for a number of years but was defunded by then President Nixon who was more interested in keeping the old monopoly of the existing nuclear companies and energy industries in business because TMSR will be much cheaper and safer than the what we have now . China who has thousands of years of Thorium material,has just recently started up a pilot Thorium Molten Salt Reactor using basically the same technology that was developed by the U.S. back in the sixties . We here in the USA are falling back because of the greed of the few who control us . Do the research.
Its official. India has achieved this milestone now.
Great video.

There is a one question I want to ask
Why India make nuclear bomb in first place ❓
Ans: in 1971 one of the puppet States of USA . Military massacre innocent civilians and impression the elected government and takeover by the military USA support that. In Desember that puppet state attacked India and India retaliate and make that nation into two parts in just 13 days USA try to use nuclear weapons.
main point is India have a capacity to make nuclear bomb in just 18 months our nuclear scientist already announced that but our prime minister against the weaponizing of nuclear power but when USA try to use nuclear weapons against India 1972 our prime minister Indira Gandhi give green signal to nuclear weapons . CIA assassinated that nuclear scientist of India in 1966 but our research is already completed and we make nuclear weapon in just two years and tested . USA know that our nuclear program against them.
EDIT:
Form then CIA start assassinating Indian Nuclear scientist & give money to women to file false sexual assault case against them.
In second stage of nuclear program in India,The fast breeder reactor uses plutonium & nuclear waste with thorium and produce plutonium and uranium 233.
The plutonium that is produced in fast breeder reactor is more plutonium than the reactor consum& generate electricity and uranium 233.
Thanks for letting me know this info brother
I'd also expect India figuring out that Pakistan had a bomb program of its own made them make a bomb too. India and Pakistan are in constant cold war style conflict.
And the fact that the Chongs had nukes of their own.
@@manw3bttcksIndia and Pakistan have actually gone to war 3 times

It is not ordinary sand but thorium rich sand. We heard about Indian Scientists working to harness nuclear energy from Thorium rich sands way back in 1968-69 in BHU from Prof. P.K .Jena , who was then in short deputation to Metallurgy Dept.of BHU from BARC. Prof Jena also told us to our question (in 1968-69) that we had a nuclear device with an affirmative smile .
India started fuel loading in fast breeder reactor (not the prototype one) in March 24.
Thanks for such an informative video.
4:30 Th 232 -> U 233 would be more accurate, the final fuel the thorium is converted to is U233 and not U238
Oops. I just added the same comment. I should have looked further into the comments. 🙂
Just a heads up indian has successfully achieved its stage 2 on nuclear energy plan. Please have a video on it
Update - second stage (fast breeder reactor is now complete ) 🥳🥳
now we are going to work on final stage
11:35 Its not like we are not having private sectors working on those R&D , In-fact some of our R&D must be from private companies because we spent quite less on R&d as per our GDP .
Great video mate, very well researched and awesome production quality for a relatively small channel..I am subbed now
Much appreciated! Thank you so so much and I'm glad you enjoyed
Just watched your video on busting myths about THORIUM. In one section you said that U233 formed from thorium can be extracted to be used as potential nuclear weapons ( already tested by USA in Operation Teapot-MET). But I have read some articles and seen some videos where it says that U233 also has some U232 which acts as a poison in two ways. 1st U232 has Gamma radiation making its very difficult to handle and it can also lead to Pre-detonation. Also it is very difficult to separate U233 and U232.
Although another way to get pure U233(without U232) is to Extract the Practinium Pa233 which forms from beta decay of Thorium in reactor. This extracted Practinium Pa233 can further beta decay outside the reactor to form pure U233.
Could you please clarify.
Informational video 👍
nice video thankyou from India
Just to inform you my friends, India has successfully achieved the 2nd stage breeder reactor. It's done. We are moving to commercialise it and third stage. It's no more pipe dream. Second stage is DONE.

Such as good information for me love from india
India needs to now step up and build itself. Not just what the world has but what we can have according to our needs and in the best interest of the world. We have one of the worlds best if not the best culture that has its uniqueness to progress. If India has its own ears and eyes for its culture we may be very much less depended on the world.
The problem is not with intention technology or Engineering the problem is with the political leadership of India which don't have the balls to give it a green light...Even the current leadership was hesitant till now, I don't know the inside politics but about one thing I am pretty sure the current Indian government is aware that their Paris climate agreement ambitions are not going to fulfill before deadline by solar energy but with Cleaner Nuclear Energy...
Ii hope breathtaking advancements in wind solar and batteru technologies doesnt make all this redundant
Bruh potiential in nuclear in much more , we just all trying to learn the secrets of the universe
Nuclear is still needed for other things 😏.
Excellent
Fuel loading operation already initiated for PFBR on March 2024. I wish the reactor achieve criticality by year end. There is an Indian American whose company recently patented HALEU concoction using Uranium and Thorium that can be used in existing PHWRs available in India.

Please more about cost of these government program and projects
Soviets were the first to officially set the goal of perpetuum mobile nuclear fuel breeding, and russians are still on track, but they never set target date - no ambitious state target budget - no rush (look for the alternative meaning of Russian "распил").
Let's wait for another 3/4years in this matter some thing great will come out of it then we will have to reverse the fuel production process in which how to use U233 with U238 for next type of fuel generation to speed up the nuclear power production in India and world as a market leader for a common nuclear fuel for Thorium as well as Uranium 238reactors

I am already working❤❤ 2*700 mw nuclear power project in all sections for 5 years
Now I am curious if you could actually do your breeding in a CANDU style reactor. Say, make your fuel rods out of Thorium and continually move them into the center of the reactor as they get converted to Uranium-233. Not sure if it would be as efficient, but in my eyes, the less handling and reprocessing, the better.
Yes, A CANDU reactor can be used to produce U233 from thorium, and also can run as a breeder reactor once the thorium is seeded with U233, U235 (bomb grade) or Pu239. India has the Pu239.
I don't understand why they have not been running their heavy water reactors on thorium.
Nor can I understand why they did not build light water reactors with thorium breeding fuel cycles. The USA perfected the breeder thoriium core for PWRs in the 1960s when they thought that thorium was a realistic possibility for our nuclear power plant futures (and the USA actually built 4 commercial thorium cycle nuclear power plants in the 1960's - 1970's).
@@perryallan3524 thanks, I figured. I'm a pro nuclear Canadian, CANDU is a point of pride to me with all of its design advantages. I knew a US nuclear company was working on thorium fuel rod designs, just wasn't fully certain on the breeder aspect.
Yep, CANDU has been shown to work with thorium to breed fuel. Actually, it's already very efficient with U-238 converting to plutonium. India is also working on an advanced HWR that's intended to work with about 40% thorium (sort of a parallel path if the PFBR takes too long).
now I know what to do in my masters

This is newtechnology india has built normal water cooled reactors on time and cheaper than wedt
Thorium is the future and we have plenty.
Regarding using more thorium, I'd like to hear your take on Clean Core Thorium ANEEL (Th+HALEU). Yeah, I know HALEU Is a dependency. But since the new advanced micro-reactor designs depend on it, I expect the supply chains will build out (e.g. for US). This along with wanting less dependence on Russia.
The USA perfected the breeder thorium fuel cycle for PWR power plants in the 1960's and also built 4 purpose built thorium fuel cycle commercial power plants in the 1960's - 1970's. While 3 of 4 power plants were technological flops, a major issue identified at the time was that it cost significantly more to refine thorium ore into nuclear power plant fuel than it does for uranium (and it was not even close - and the economics did not change when they studied scaling it up to supply the entire USA reactor fleet).
Just on economics alone uranium won out.
I have seen nothing to suggest that has changed.
The PWR is the most common nuclear power plant in the world (and gaining) as many decades of operation has shown it to be the most cost effective long term. The vast majority of PWR reactors in the world could be running on thorium today if it was cheaper than uranium. Likely about half would be running on thorium if it was essentially cost competitive.
I have no idea why India did not build PWRs and be running thorium breeder cycles with it.
I think the US (and others) now have some motivation for HALEU, which opens up a lot of alternate designs. In my opinion, thorium's best quality is that it is simply an alternate fuel to uranium -- not necessarily cheaper or better. For India, it makes a ton of sense since they have a lot of thorium. For other countries, thorium will probably remain a niche fuel source, but we'll see!

The program had been Envisioned apart from many Technological hurdles that came with the development process they had to account for the self-reliance guidelines.

@@kadlifal India earned the enmity of the world when they violated international agreements on the use of internationally supplied nuclear technology to produce and test atomic weapons.
India only has itself to blame.... They could not even wait a few years to when they could build their own Indian designed nuclear reactor to make a bomb.
I also doubt that the USA had anything to do with the assignation of Indian nuclear bomb researchers. There is no evidence that the USA has assassinated any nuclear bomb researchers anywhere in the world - and if fact the designs of the WW II bombs are public knowledge.
I'd look a lot more closer to home for the likely culprits for that... I can think of 2 countries right in India's neighborhood that would be very concerned about Indian nuclear weapons.
@@kadlifal You do realize that India signed international agreements to not use internationally supplied nuclear reactors and technology to develop nuclear weapons and make nuclear weapon materials.
A promise that India promptly violated as they quickly tested a bomb with materials produced in the Canadian supplied reactor.
As a result the entire nuclear world cut off all communications and nuclear support - and very justly so.
So India has brought its technological problems with nuclear power upon themselves.
India was really dumb... if they had studied the design of the foreign reactors they could have built their own "home designed" reactor in a few years and made bomb material that way (which is what several other countries did) without violating the agreement they specifically signed with Canada to get that reactor.
No one in the world is going to trust the Indian government or provide nuclear support - at least for many more decades; and the world would need to see some real changes from India for decades to even give it a chance.
As far as the assassinations go. There is no evidence to suggest that the USA has ever assassinated nuclear bomb researchers (or any other nuclear technology researchers) in the world.
I can think of 2 countries in close proximity to India that would be very concerned about Indian nuclear weapons... and could easily see them doing assassinations. I'd look a lot closer to home for your problems.
India created their own problems in the nuclear technology world... Now take responsibility for those problems and stop trying to blame others.
Canada always have an upper hand in nuclear energy industry supplies. Nuclear industry isn't fail-proof and India not having major accident shows they know how to operate such plants. Nuclear waste can be detrimental to the environment. I wonder where the nuclear waste is dispensed.

The cost of bringing a nuclear plant online is finance for the wait as even the experimental though relatively understood breeder reactors are unreliable and frequently run below capacity even after 20 years. The sodium breeder reactors are very problematic as the sodium can explode in water, frequently bursting into flame when exposed to moisture in air. The U.S. EBR1 had a meltdown. Whatever they say about their ambitions, it seems they are successful in breeding U238 into plutonium and making bombs. Thorium appears to be a cover story, as the cost of publicly available and cheap U238 which has a much better cross section in a sodium fast breeder reactor is primarily being utilized.
It all starts with Dr. Homi Bhabha's legendary vision
Good luck Homers.
