Argonne pioneered pyroprocessing techniques to recycle nuclear fuel. Research and development in pyroprocessing may pay off for fast reactors, which already make very efficient use of natural uranium ...

• This is in short, a small, modular, sodium-cooled fast breeder reactor (SFR) of 50-100 MWe size • They intend to close the fuel cycle with the original Argonne pyroprocessing system, developed for ...
