When using thorium in modified LWR problems include: the undeveloped technology for fuel fabrication; in traditional, once-through PLWR designs potential problems in recycling thorium due to highly radioactive 228Th; some weapons proliferation risk of 233U; and the technical problems (not yet satisfactorily solved) in reprocessing. Much development work is still required before the thorium fuel cycle can be commercialized for use in LWR, and the effort required seems unlikely while (or where) abundant uranium is available.
