Breed-and-burn fuel cycle in molten salt reactors

EPJ Nuclear Sciences & Technologies, 2019
The operation of a reactor on an open but self-sustainable cycle without actinide separation is known as breed-and-burn. It has mostly been envisioned for use in solid-fueled fast-spectrum reactors such as sodium-cooled fast reactors.
