Alpha Tech Research Corp is described as developing thorium fueled Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) technology with the intent being to enable a new phase in clean, safe power production. Already proven effective and safer than traditional Light Water Reactors (LWR), MSR is being further refined such as to be ready for large-scale energy production. Unlike conventional Light Water Reactors (LWR), MSRs operate at low pressure and cannot melt down - a critical factor - and improvement - on nuclear's already unbeatable safety record over other energy production technologies.
