Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2009
Abstract In this work, we briefly describe the accelerator breeder reactors (ABR) and their possible uses both for production of energy and isotopes. This study indicates that ABRs can produce fuel, which would generate 2–15 times the electrical energy, ABRs consume. The energy gain depends on the type of ABR used.

Science, 1980
France relies on nuclear power as an important part of her energy program. Anticipating problems with the availability of natural uranium before the year 2020, the French have been pursuing a three-stage program of development of breeder reactors. The third reactor in this program, the near-commercial plant Super Phenix Mark I, is expected to reach ...

Physics Today, 1972
Within the next 30 years we will call upon our resources and technology to supply more energy than has been consumed throughout all history. Population pressures, the necessity for increased living standards in the underdeveloped nations, the demands of material affluence in the technological societies, the need to improve management of our dwindling ...

Alternative Breeder Reactor Technologies
Annual Review of Energy, 1978The significance of employing breeder reactors to stretch the world resources of nuclear fuels is briefly discussed, and the various types of breeder concepts are described. General descriptions, advantages, and disadvantages of the liquid metal cooled fast breeder, gas cooled fast breeder, molten salt breeder, thermal breeders, and spectral-shift ...

Fast Breeder Reactor Economics
1985The long-term incentive for the development of breeders is well known: better use of natural uranium in order to extend the potential of nuclear energy by a factor of 50 with given uranium resources, and in fact by a much larger factor, since also uranium resources from low-grade ores can be used economically in breeder reactors. Nuclear energy without
