There seems to be an error in the document where it talks about 1 tonne of fuel providing 2.5GWth for a year. More to the point, it implies that oly that tonne is needed. While it make CONSUME one tonne, it needs a lot more than that to operate in a fast spectrum.

"The fuel is a liquid actinide metal in a molten chloride salt solution" ~ needs fixing and sources
[edit]whoever wrote this phrase is a complete dilettante. I will not edit this page, but someone should, asap. things like this make people have doubts about nuclear power. this page is either fixed, or it should be deleted, the sources are terrible, i mean, really? a blog? ( so much for wikipedia standards ) and an article in german? not even a translation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Typhon Antaeus (talk • contribs) 20:04, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Agree it's a daft statement. But compared to the guy who assured a General Meeting of Students I attended that Plutonium had a much longer half-life than Uranium (and the students mostly believed him, look it up if you're not already either laughing or crying) that author really knows their stuff. At least they got the actinide part right. Probably just a bad translation. And it's a fascinating story. Welcome to nuclear politics. Andrewa (talk) 08:22, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
Presumably TA objected to the a liquid actinide metal part ? It's been fixed. - Rod57 (talk) 12:00, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
What happened since 2014
[edit]What happened since 2014 ? Have they tried to raise private or public funds ? Have they tried to get the design licenced/approved ? - Rod57 (talk) 11:51, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
In February 2021, the six inventors, along with the existing team, formed the Canadian company Dual Fluid Energy Inc. to bring the design to commercial maturity.In June 2021, we acquired approximately $6 million in Canadian Dollar seed funding. By the way, our reactor no longer carries the name "DFR" because of confusion with the Deounreay Fast Reactor. Dual Fluid Reaktor (talk) 07:44, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
