Breeder Reactors With a Fast Neutron Spectrum, a factor of 100 higher than that of present light water reactors. They can operate on the U-238/Pu-239 or on the Th-232/U-233 breeding process and utilize depleted or natural uranium or thorium. In this way they can open up an energy potential with the existing uranium and thorium reserves which ca

Safety Design Concept of Liquid Metal Cooled Fast Breeder Reactors (LMFBRs),for light water reactors. This holds despite of the fact that LMFBRs have different design characteristics (fast neutron spectrum, liquid metal as coolant, plutonium-uranium fuel). It has been shown that LMFBRs possess a strong negative power coefficient and good control stability. The main design c
