The reactor uses polonium as the fuel to desalinate sea water, producing salt, distilled water and electricity.

  May I use the control rod mechanism in my compact power unit design?

  OK, the clogged pipe was fixed.

  this reactor is so simple to build and so small you could build it pretty much anywhere, and have a really good source of power AND desalinated water

  I mean, the salt doesn't form inside the reactor cooling chamber itself, but rather the pipe that leads to it as the heat goes to the top of that pipe and there, where the pressure aint that high, it boils and clogs the pipe after the dropoff.

  Yeah, the overheat protection is added in the auto system.

  The pipe will not be clogged unless you heat the reactor to a very high temperture. By the way, the salt water will not boil in the reactor even if the polonium is melted.

  or don't even use salt water

  and simple solution to fix the clogging problem: boil the salt water BEFORE it enters the piping

  heat polonium to 1250 - 1300 for insulation fire
