Russia notes progress with fast reactor technology
Russia has reached two more milestones in its endeavour to close the
nuclear fuel cycle. Mashinostroitelny Zavod (MSZ) - part of Russian
nuclear fuel manufacturer TVEL - has completed acceptance tests of
components for its ETVS-14 and ETVS-15 experimental fuel assemblies with
mixed nitride fuel for the BREST and BN fast neutron reactors. MSZ has
also announced the start of research and development work on the
technical design of the "absorbent element" of the core of the
BREST-OD-300 reactor.http://world-nuclear-news.org/NN-Russian-notes-progress-with-fast-reactor-technology-23081601.html
