HYPOTHESIS:  The efficiency of fusion energy could be used to prevent global warming.  The production of low cost electricity can be achieved by advancing the technology of fusing two different isotopic nuclei to fusing like-isotopic nuclei in the nearest future.  How can fusion energy be commercialized?

 fusion energy is a zero-emission type of energy meaning no CO2 emission. This could help in the gradual reduction of the available CO2 in the atmosphere  More electricity can be produced by simply fusing a particular isotope with itself. An isotope of hydrogen; Deuterium could be the only material being used for the fusion process instead of using Deuterium and Tritium as materials  In other to commercialize fusion energy water is needed because deuterium is found in water and water is abundant on earth surface

 To make use of a mono-isotopic nuclei egs: deuterium as a major material of fusion energy.  That is using D-D fusion to produce energy (electricity)

 2 1 H H = 3 2 He n MeV PROPOSED

ENERGY neutron HELIUM DEUTERIUM

 Neutron energy used to power reactor  It causes radioactive elements when fused to the blanket of the reactor  Boron might be an option

 The reaction rate is almost 100 times lower than that of a D-T reaction.  It takes approximately 900secs to complete the reaction in the reactor
