At the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory—famously charged with peaceful expansion of Enrico Fermi's successful Chicago Pile-1 fission experiment—fast reactor technology is ...

All U.S. nuclear reactors ... 1 fission experiment—fast reactor technology is nothing new. In fact, Argonne designed, built and operated the full-scale Experimental Breeder Reactor-II (EBR ...

Abstract: This paper has been prepared to introduce a single-ended saturable reactor circuit which exhibits a transfer characteristic for which the d-c output is essentially a linear function of the d ...

Nine reactors with a total capacity of 7,300 MW [including Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) by Bharatiya Nabhikiya Vidhyut Nigam Limited (BHAVINI)] are under construction and twelve reactors ...

Sodium-cooled fast reactors using metallic-alloy fuel are attracting attention because they are inherently safe and produce more fuel than they use.

This is true even for those reactor technologies that claim to use radioactive waste as fuel. While actinides may be burned in fast breeder reactors, for example, their long-lived radioactive fission ...
