Abstract:
The fusion-fission hybrid reactor system is a cutting-edge nuclear technology designed to integrate the processes of nuclear fusion and fission to create a more efficient and sustainable energy source. This hybrid approach leverages fusion to generate high-energy neutrons, which then induce fission in a surrounding blanket of fissile material, significantly enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing long-lived radioactive waste. The fusion-fission hybrid reactor addresses key challenges traditional nuclear reactors face, including waste management, fuel sustainability, and safety concerns. By combining the strengths of fusion and fission, this technology promises to deliver a more reliable, low-carbon energy solution that meets the growing global energy demand while minimizing environmental impacts. This article explores the necessity and potential of fusion-fission hybrid reactors, highlighting their role in the future of energy production.
