• Carbon dioxide and ammonia can be produced from the Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG) process driven by a Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) • Residual heat captured from a MSR used in SNG production process could be used in the desalination process • Low cost MSR electricity can affordably power pumps, making it economically viable to transport water long distances • MSR technology, powering SNG production, can create the raw materials for affordable FO desalination and the low-‐cost energy needed to maximize the benefits of these technologies The eGeneration Foundation is working to form an alliance to develop a national energy plan, promoting the next generation of fuels powered by Molten Salt Reactor technology. As studies and analysis of this promising technology are widely understood, there will be widespread industry support for commercializing this next generation process, thus providing a clear pathway to prosperity.
