Molten Salt Reactor
- Safe
- Clean
- Efficient
- Multi-functional
- Scalable
- Carbon-free
- Reliable 4
The MSRR is itself an experiment Included experiments:
- Corrosion coupons
- Salt sampling
- Fuel salt chemistry
- Bubbling system
- Off-gas cleanup Experimental Systems 5
Experiments Off Gas Handling Drain Tank Pump Fuel Receiving Fuel Purification Concrete Radiator MSRR Reactor Layout 6
Recommended Method in ORNL Report*
Material balance of inputs and outputs to the reactor Most similar to existing LWR MC&A approaches May have large inventory difference Performance based approach MC&A of Liquid Fuel
