Uranium Seawater Extraction Makes Nuclear
Power Completely Renewable:


"America, Japan and China are racing to be the first nation to make
nuclear energy completely renewable. The hurdle is making it
economic to extract uranium from seawater, because the amount of
uranium in seawater is truly inexhaustible. James Conca at Forbes
describes the latest developments with uranium seawater extraction.

James has some update from Nextbigfuture's April coverage of the
uranium extraction from seawater research.

And it seems America is in the lead. New technological breakthroughs
from DOE’s Pacific Northwest (PNNL) and Oak Ridge (ORNL) national
laboratories have made removing uranium from seawater within
economic reach and the only question is – when will the source of
uranium for our nuclear power plants change from mined ore to
seawater extraction?"
