The Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) is a research reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory, located east of Arco, Idaho.This reactor was designed and is used to test nuclear fuels and materials to be used in power plants, naval propulsion, research and advanced reactors.
INL's Advanced Test Reactor is much smaller than the more common electricity-producing reactors—the reactor vessel measures 12 feet (3.7 m) across and 36 feet (11 m) high, with the core a mere 4 feet (1.2 m) tall and 50 inches (130 cm) across, and it does not generate electricity. As a special feature, it allows scientists to simultaneously ...
The 11-month outage at the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Test Reactor, or ATR, in eastern Idaho allowed a core overhaul that's done, on average, about every 10 years.

CHICAGO, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clean Core Thorium Energy (Clean Core) announced that its patented ANEEL™ fuel (Advanced Nuclear Energy for Enriched Life) has reached a groundbreaking burnup milestone in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL).
Advanced Reactivity Measurement Facility I (ARMF-I) was a research reactor which was located at the Argonne National Laboratory, a United States Department of Energy national laboratory, facility located in the high desert of southeastern Idaho between Idaho Falls, Idaho and Arco, Idaho. ARMF-I was nearly identical to ARMF-II.
If Congress provides funding for the reactor, it will be the first of its kind to operate in the U.S. in nearly 30 years. Idaho National Laboratory ‘leads the way,’ chosen to host new nuclear ...
