ELSY project

As an example, consider the ELSY project, which is a predecessor to the ELFR concept. ELSY represented a milestone in the quest for innovative solutions, and this quest has continued as designers have explored additional improvements to be embodied in subsequent designs.

The Project s Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) program became the world s largest bioethics program and a model for other ELSI programs worldwide. 

The Human Genome Project Web site (http //www.nhgri.nih.gov/About NHGRl/Der/Elsi/) This site discusses the ethical issues involved in gene therapy protocols. 

To improve tools for data analysis, transfer related technologies to the private sector, and address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project ... 

Thus it is noted that in ELSY, as well as the subsequent EC/Euratom projects (ELFR and ALFRED), an unconventional solution has been adopted, namely the installation of the primary pumps (PPs) in the hot collector. 

While the European design efforts leading to the ELSY/ELFR/ALFRED series of LFR concepts were being conducted, parallel efforts were being pursued to develop an array of innovative designs. Projects in Russia, Japan, Korea, the USA, and China concurrently pursued a variety of different concepts with considerable innovation and creativity with respect to primary system design as well as the entire reactor systems.
