The connection between nuclear power and sintering
I do not understand why a lack of nuclear power would lead to microwaves being the first source of heat for sintering. --Farred 03:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Efficiency
Resistor based apparels heat in all directions = loss of power. (I admit that several non-ionic materials will be sintered in a resistor based machinery...) Another wild idea is the classic sun ray collectors (parabolic mirrors) but is not portable... An example: the idea for microwaves for melt the regolith to make roads seems viable...
