Thorium Salt reactors can recycle their water source and also use water from waste treatment or even sea water as they’re not high pressure water reactors.

When you don’t need the result of power generation to be fissionable material for warheads there are a lot more options available to you, such as using the waste from older reactors to generate energy and output much less reactive material.

Nuclear missiles are an albatross around the neck of nuclear power.
