A newly developed catalogue and database of facilities in the IAEA Member States in support of development and deployment of liquid metal cooled fast neutron systems (LMFNS catalogue) is now available online.
Committed to the sustainability and addressing the technology progression, the IAEA provides support to the Member States covering all technical aspects of current, evolutionary and innovative fast reactors and subcritical hybrid systems.
The newly developed catalogue of experimental facilities in support of development and deployment of both critical and subcritical liquid metal-cooled fast neutron systems (LMFNS catalogue) is a living database. It presents an overview as well as detailed information on more than 150 experimental facilities under design, construction or operation in 14 IAEA Member States.
The LMFNS Catalogue contains detailed data and information on 79 facilities in support of the development of sodium cooled fast reactors (SFR), as well as 72 facilities in support of lead and lead-bismuth eutectic cooled fast reactors (LFR). Several facilities are applicable to both SFR and LFR technologies. The detailed facility profiles are categorized according to their most relevant research fields (main application). Multiple-choice filtering options by main research fields, by reactor type (SFR, LFR, cross-cut SFR/LFR application) and by country are available.
