Part 8/12:
Copenhagen Atomics envisions a gigafactory—akin to an automotive plant—producing one reactor daily. This factory would establish a pipeline of reactors, each designed for quick assembly and deployment. Their approach emphasizes iterative engineering, frequent demos, and a maker mindset within their engineering culture—making the process transparent, fast, and adaptable.
The production process involves dedicated facilities for manufacturing fuel salts from imported raw materials, such as sodium fluoride and lithium fluoride from India. The facility aims to be the world’s largest producer of nuclear-grade salt, ensuring supply chain security and fostering rapid deployment.
