Scientists are excited about an experimental nuclear reactor using thorium as fuel, which is about to begin tests in China. The reactor is unusual in that it has molten salts circulating inside it instead of water, producing cheap, safe, low-waste energy. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Direct heat to electricity conversion with molten salt

At one point I recall reading in a thread somewhere about a technology invented in the 1960s that allows for the conversion of heat directly in to electricity using molten salt. What is it called?

I can’t find the comment or even the thread that it was in, and Google only wants to show me batteries and fission reactors.

Edit- found it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali-metal_thermal_to_electric_converter

molten alkali metal, not molten salt. That’s probably why I couldn’t find it
