Thus, the role of nuclear power in electricity generation is expected to become more important in future years. A fast reactor system is one of the most promising options for electricity generation with an efficient utilization of uranium resources and a reduction of radioactive wastes. Based on the experiences gained during the development of the conceptual designs for KALIMER (Korea advanced liquid metal reactor), the KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) is currently developing advanced SFR (sodium cooled fast reactor) design concepts that can better meet the Gen IV (Generation IV) technology goals. The long-term advanced SFR development plan will be carried out toward the construction of an advanced SFR demonstration plant by 2028. Advanced concept design studies and the development of the advanced SFR technologies necessary for its commercialization and basic key technologies carried out by KAERI are included in this paper.展开更多

Highlights of some of materials R&D studies are discussed in this paper.展开更多
