A fission fragment reactor is a type of nuclear reactor that aims to utilize the high energy released from fission fragments directly for power generation. In conventional nuclear reactors, the fission process of heavy isotopes, such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239, generates not only energy but also a range of products (fission fragments) that are not fully used for producing electricity.
