I clearly don't understand the fusion process. Deuterium is used to fuse and create tritium?
What's this "electron screened environment" they are talking about? They can't purge all electrons from molecules when they enter can they? That would make the molecule instable. But it sounds like they are doing something similar in order to reduce the temperature required for fusion.

Produce more fuel than it consumed... I'm pretty sure that's breaking a law somewhere... And not the human kind...
It produces more rare tritium fuel than it uses from other fuels that it consumes. So in theory as long as you keep supplying the common fuel you get the tritium you need for the higher power reactions.
