Electrochemically modulated molten salt reactor

An electrochemically modulated molten salt reactor (EMMSR) comprising:

• a nuclear reactor vessel and a power source;
• the nuclear reactor vessel contains a nuclear fuel salt, at least partially contains a neutron moderator, and at least partially contains an insulator,
• the nuclear fuel salt including dissolved fissile isotopes wherein the concentration of the fissile isotopes during operation of the EMMSR is sufficient to cause continued self-sustaining fission reactions,
• the neutron moderator configured to slow down fast neutrons produced by the dissolved fissile isotopes,
• the insulator configured to electrically isolate the neutron moderator from the nuclear reactor vessel;
• the power source having a positive potential and a negative potential,
• the positive potential is received by the neutron moderator, and the negative potential is received by the nuclear reactor vessel;
• and
• a holder, the holder stabilizes the neutron moderator and the insulator in communication with the vessel.
