Closed Nuclear Fuel Cycle with Fast Reactors: Handbook of Russian Nuclear Power provides unique insights into research and practical activities from leading Russian experts. It presents readers with unprecedented insight and essential knowledge surrounding nuclear fast reactor technologies, as well as novel methods to close the nuclear fuel cycle to achieve cleaner, more environmentally friendly, and more efficient nuclear power. Using the Proryv Project as a framework, the book's contributors provide detailed descriptions of technologies in development in Russia, allowing readers from around the globe to gain a thorough understanding which they can then apply to their own research and practice.

Nuclear engineers and technologists of fast reactors, advanced reactors and fuel cycles will use this book as a guide to inform new technology development. They will be able to use the experiences from the Proryv Project to drive fast reactor development with closed fuel cycles for the future.

Evgeny Adamov is an honored scientist of the Russian Federation, Chairman of the Scientific and Technical Council of Rosatom State Corporation and author of more than 200 scientific publications and patents. Since 2012, research on the development of a new technological platform for nuclear power has been carried out as part of the “Proryv project, initiated by Professor Adamov and implemented under his scientific supervision. In the 1980s, E.O. Adamov launched scientific and technical activities in Russia to develop a new (fifth) generation nuclear technologies for large-scale nuclear power with closed nuclear fuel cycle (CNFC) and fast reactors, which allows to overcome the basic modern problems of nuclear energy production.
