Its Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is expected to be operational by the end of 2025. This announcement underscores India’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions and its ...
Five fast reactors are now in operation: two operating reactors (BN-600 and BN-800) and one test reactor (BOR-60) in Russia, India’s Fast Breeder Test Reactor (FBTR) and the China Experimental Fast ...
MHI has experienced setbacks in developing a fast reactor. The “Monju” prototype fast-breeder reactor, the preliminary stage of a demonstration reactor, encountered a spate of problems ...
TerraPower’s reactor will use liquid sodium as a cooling agent such as the Monju prototype fast-breeder reactor, which Japan decided to decommission after a series of accidents. Japan can ...
Shrouded in mystery, the island is silently witnessing the construction of advanced ‘fast-breeder’ nuclear reactors. Recent media reports highlight growing skepticism toward the Chinese ...
Fast breeder reactors "breed" more fissile material than the fuel they consume. The Department of Atomic Energy also announced a significant discovery of new deposits in India's oldest Uranium ...
