The BN-350 fast-neutron reactor at Aktau, Kazakhstan.It operated between 1973 and 1994. A fast-neutron reactor (FNR) or fast-spectrum reactor or simply a fast reactor is a category of nuclear reactor in which the fission chain reaction is sustained by fast neutrons (carrying energies above 1 MeV, on average), as opposed to slow thermal neutrons used in thermal-neutron reactors.

The BN-800 is the largest fast neutron power reactor in service in the world. Three turbines are connected to the BN-600 reactor. The BN-600 reactor core is 1.03 metres (41 in) tall and has a diameter of 2.05 metres (81 in). It has 369 fuel assemblies, each consisting of 127 fuel rods with an enrichment of 17–26% 235 U.
Pool type sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) A sodium-cooled fast reactor is a fast neutron reactor cooled by liquid sodium.. The initials SFR in particular refer to two Generation IV reactor proposals, one based on existing liquid metal cooled reactor (LMFR) technology using mixed oxide fuel (MOX), and one based on the metal-fueled integral fast reactor.

The MBIR is a multi-loop research reactor capable of testing lead, lead-bismuth and gas coolants, and run on MOX fuel. MBIR intends to replace the old BOR-60 experimental fast reactor that started operations at RIAR's site in 1969. It will have a design life of 50 years. [3]
