New nuclear-powered container ship
CSSC has unveiled plans for the first container ship powered by a molten salt nuclear reactor. According to The Maritime Executive, the design of this vessel has obtained a Certificate of Approval in Principle (AiP) from DNV.
Although the company has not revealed many details about the project, it has highlighted various research and tests carried out with thorium-based reactors.
“ This type of ship has high safety since the reactor operates at high temperatures and low pressure, which means that, in principle, it can avoid core meltdown ,” mentioned CSSC.
