The '''Zirconium Fusion Reactor by Bolotov''' is an invention of Ukrainian citizen Boris Bolotov (Boris Bolotow, Борис Болотов). It is a device supposed to render so-called [[Cold Fusion|cold fusion]] possible, thus yielding huge amounts of energy according to the inventor. With an electrical input of 5 kW, the reactor is said to achieve a heating output of 200 kW.

There is no proof of any kind for the claims made by Bolotov. The issue of the "fusion reactor by Bolotov" only raised an interest among supporters of [[Cold Fusion|"cold fusion"]] as well as in internet projects dedicated to the issue of "cold fusion" and pursuing commercial objectives in those circles. An example is U.S. company [[Pure Energy Systems Network Inc.]] which devoted uncritical articles to the reactor of Bolotov.
