Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor

ID: prototype-fast-breeder-reactor

The Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is a type of nuclear reactor designed to generate more fissile material than it consumes. This is accomplished through a process called "breeding," where the reactor converts non-fissile materials (such as uranium-238) into fissile materials (like plutonium-239) while producing energy. ### Key Features of PFBR 1.
