Lftr! Breeds burns almost all the fuel.i think the waste products it does make are shorter term.

  300-700 years is still many many generations. Remember waste will continue to be produced, during this time. It’s not a simple fix :)

    Lftr is supposed to be in the high nineties allegedly of fuel consumption %. And the gas/liquid nature means separation and processing is a lot more viable Contrast that with solid fuel rods using like 20% of its fuel, and that only of the fissile uranium isotopes. The the waste is locked in a solid form of the spent fuel rods I'll take lftr which (theoretically) is so much cleaner. Fusion isnt without waste, the high speed neutrons irradiate/transmute the reactor

      Reducing waste without a long term (multigenerational) plan does not solve the waste problem ;)
