Nuklearabfälle könnten seltene Wasserstoffbrennstoff für US -Fusionsreaktoren liefern

Scientists in the United States are developing a method to recycle nuclear waste to make tritium – a rare version of hydrogen which serves as one of the main fuels in nuclear fusion.

Nuclear fusion is a process that fuses two atoms together to release heat which can turn generators. The generators will ensure a supply of large amounts of electricity that is almost emission-free. Therefore, in theory, it is thought to be one of the cleanest forms of energy.
