Svintsovo-Vismutovyi Bystryi Reaktor

In Russia, two initiatives are currently being pursued. One of these is known as the SVBR (Svintsovo-Vismutovyi Bystryi Reaktor or Lead—Bismuth Fast Reactor ) (Zrodnikov et al., 2009). The SVBR-100 is generally considered a foUow-on technology to the prior submarine propulsion technology and is a small reactor cooled by LBE. The second major initiative, known as the BREST Bystry Reaktor so Svintsovym Teplonositelem or Fast Reactor with Lead Coolant ) (Dragunov et al., 2012), is a medium-sized reactor cooled by pure lead and detailed further in this chapter as one of the reference LFR reactor systems in the Generalion IV program (GIF-LFR-pSSC, 2014).
