    The Öko-Institut demonstrated the proliferation risk in HTR in detail. In his 223-page report (commissioned by Greenpeace) "Assessment of domestic and foreign concepts for small high-temperature reactors" he emphasized in 1990 that a safety analysis should not only be limited to the operation of the reactor itself, but also the. ..

    uses. The Indian nuclear industry is pursuing its "thorium plan" in order not to be too dependent on imported uranium in the future. In February 2006 it was announced that a step-by-step concept for the expansion of the HTR line had been developed (VDI nachrichten, February 10.02.2006, XNUMX). French Prime Minister Chirac also signed a declaration at this time, which...

This concept, relaunched by Framatome ANP (now converted into AREVA through a merger with Siemens), has already been pursued in the Federal Republic of Germany and failed with the THTR Hamm and the AVR in Jülich. Nevertheless, various variants of coupling are still being worked on at the Jülich Research Center...

    Rudolf Schulten - so the legend goes - developed it in the 1950s. But the fact is that Leo Szilard was already talking about fuel spheres in the 1930s and Farrigton Daniels developed the concept of the pebble bed reactor at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Tennessee in 1942! In 1967, the first prototype of a 'spherical pile reactor', the AVR Jülich, was...
