Talk:Clean and Environmentally Safe Advanced Reactor

This is an interisting concept. So... basically this is a epithermal/fast reactor that is cooled and moderated by steam? I am unclear as to how the heat transfer system and fuel are set up. Is the fuel pure U-238 metal in a steam environment, or is there cladding? Is the thermal-hydralic system refered to in the article present to capture waste heat like the material with a large heat capacity that is used in Sterling engines to capture heat? I think I interpreted enough of the original sources info, but it sounds a lot like an adveritsemnt for more funding... other sources for steam moderated power plants would be good to back this up.
