South Korea’s Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) has said it has received Approval In Principle from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) for a conceptual design of a Compact Molten Salt Reactor (CMSR) Power Barge - floating offshore NPP – using technology being developed by Denmark’s Seaborg. SHI signed a business agreement with Seaborg in January 2022 to develop a floating NPP and plans to commercialise it by 2028 after completing detailed design of all power generation facilities.

Nuclear reactor technology could also be used to produce hydrogen The IMSR is said to be 50 percent more efficient than traditional reactors. Courtesy Terrestrial Energy. Canada-based Generation IV reactor developer Terrestrial Energy has signed an agreement with US-based KBR to investigate the use of the integral molten salt reactor (IMSR) for hydrogen and ammonia production.

Terrestrial Energy said that zero-emission thermal energy from IMSR nuclear cogeneration can be used in the production process of hydrogen and ammonia.

KBR supplies ammonia production technology to chemical manufacturers globally, the statement said.

According to Terrestrial Energy, KBR will support the development of “commercial frameworks” for the deployment and marketing of ammonia production technology using IMSR cogeneration.
