In this paper the authors review 25 original Small and Medium sized Reactor designs
currently under development, licensing procedure or in operation. Technology overview …

This study offers a neutronisc core calculation to assess the potential of the compact
microheterogeneous thorium-uranium TRistructural ISOtropic (TRISO) fuel design for the …

In this paper, several novel polygeneration systems are presented which convert natural
gas, coal, and a carbonless heat source such as high-temperature helium to gasoline and …

The paper aimed to maximize the fuel burnup performance of plutonium and minor actinides
fueled pebble bed high temperature reactor (PBMR-400). The PBMR-400 was designed as …

The use of thorium-based fuels is an attractive option to achieve high burnup level and
relatively longer reactor operation period. This also includes some other potential …

This paper presents the neutronic analysis of a tristructural isotropic (TRISO)‐duplex fuel
loaded into the high‐temperature reactor (HTR) prismatic fuel block designs for a seed‐and …

Spent nuclear fuel out of conventional light water reactors contains significant amount of
even plutonium isotopes, so called reactor grade plutonium. Excellent neutron economy of …

Because of the high burnup achieved by thorium fuels, they are attractive for utilization in the
so-called advanced high temperature reactor (AHTR), which is a new reactor that merges …

Time evolution of criticality and burn up grades of the Fixed Bed Nuclear Reactor (FBNR)
are investigated using alternative fuels. Neutron transport calculations are performed by …

Utilization of natural uranium (nat-U) and thorium as fertile fuels has been investigated by in
a Gas Turbine–Modular Helium Reactor (GTMHR) using reactor grade plutonium as driver …
