Magnox Reactors – At the Forefront of a New Age
Developed in the United Kingdom during the mid-20th century, Magnox Reactors were pivotal in demonstrating the feasibility of nuclear power.

A molten salt reactor uses liquid salt as fuel and coolant, offering safer, more efficient nuclear energy with less waste and higher temperature operation.
Boiling Water Reactors, or BWRs, are the second most common nuclear reactors in the world today. A Boiling Water Reactor directly boils water within the reactor core to produce steam, used to drive turbines and generate electricity.
How does a nuclear power station keep running for decades? How do we know what’s going on inside the reactor? How do we repair it when it breaks?
What goes on behind the fence at a nuclear power station? What are all those buildings for and how does it all work together?
Unfathomable amounts of heat. Ludicrous temperatures and pressures. Ridiculous quantities of water and steam. How exactly do you turn all that into electricity?
Siting, Design, Construction, Operations, and Decommissioning. Find out what it takes to complete each lifecycle stage of a nuclear power plant….
Reactor coolant absorbs and removes heat from the reactor core. Find out where it goes from there and what types of coolants exist…
In the realm of nuclear energy, the unassuming containment building emerges as a crucial guardian. It provides the outermost and ultimate layer of protection.
Reactor design is evolving and improving; each nuclear reactor generation seeks to address the limitations of the previous.
