Integral Fast Reactor
The Integral Fast Reactor (IFR) is a type of advanced nuclear reactor designed for safer, more efficient energy production. It uses fast neutrons to generate electricity and can recycle its own fuel, reducing nuclear waste. The IFR features innovative fuel recycling technology within a closed system, minimizing waste and improving safety. It operates at higher temperatures for better efficiency and incorporates passive safety features, meaning it can shut down safely without human intervention in emergencies. Overall, the IFR aims to provide a cleaner, more sustainable, and economically viable form of nuclear power.
