Abstract

Advanced fission systems mainly refer to fourth-generation nuclear systems represented by six typical reactor types: lead-based fast reactors (LFRs), very-high-temperature reactors (VHTRs), sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs), supercritical water-cooled reactors (SCWRs), molten salt reactors (MSRs), gas-cooled fast reactors (GFRs), and other unconventional fission systems. These systems are usually designed with characteristics of sustainability, safety, economic efficiency, and effective prevention of nuclear proliferation.
