[QUOTE="theroyprocess, post: 99093, member: 1757"] [b]Transmute Nuclear Waste as Heat Source[/b] Dr. Roy estimated cost at 80 million dollars in 1979 to construct a Roy Process pilot plant. You could shut down the aging nuclear power reactors and use the transmutation of the spent fuel as the heat source to make steam and power the existing generators. Forever eliminate high level isotopes, prevent bomb grade and 'dirty bomb' element theft, and generate electric power...what more could you ask for? Bet on a nuclear meltdown? It's already too late! Atmospheric atom bomb 'testing' fallout has forever adulterated the genetic fabric of all life on earth. I believe first cited in Rachel Carson's book SILENT SPRING. Man made, long lived radioactive elements are in our DNA, our bones, muscles, teeth...and will affect the health of future generations who will add to their body burden of toxics.
