| 520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Generation IV nuclear reactors are designed to be safe, economical and to produce minimal radioactive waste material. The present book reviews the various categories of Generation IV reactors and their applications, providing an overview of the physics of nuclear power reactors and describing the technology behind each of the six Generation IV designs. It describes past progress in each of these technologies and summarizes current research and development activities. It gives an evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of each design and summarizes the ways in which each satisfies the criteria specified by the Generation IV International Forum. This book provides an overview of the environmental aspects of nuclear power, an introduction to the physics of fission reactors and a summary of the drawbacks of current reactor designs. |
