Fission Product Removal In Molten Salt Reactors
Fission products tend to transfer to the gaseous phase due to low solubility within the salt. [6] In the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)'s Molten Salt Breeder Reactor (MSBR) experiment, after removal of the gas products, the salt is returned to the primary fuel loop through a pipe with solid particle traps.

Molecular dynamics study of fission product behaviour in molten ThF4
The solvation of fission products in fuel salts and the effects due to their accumulation are important factors to understand in molten salt reactor design.

In this study, a numerical flow model of the fission products (FPs) in the primary loop system of a molten salt reactor (MSR) was established and solved using Mathematica 7.0. The simulation results were compared with those of the ORIGEN-S program in the static burnup mode, and the deviation was found to be less than 10%, which indicates that the results are in good agreement. Furthermore, the ...

Abstract. Molten salt reactors (MSRs) are a family of advanced, generation-IV, nuclear reactors that use a circulating molten alkali fluoride fuel salt as both a primary working fluid and a fuel matrix. Since the fuel salt is liquid, gases become entrained in the fuel salt flow, and these entrained gases are called circulating voids. This paper reviews some aspects of circulating voids on ...

The report also emphasizes how power regulation causes a gradual shift in temperature, which makes it difficult to monitor the safety of the liquid fuel molten salt reactor system [7], [36], [37]. The ability of MSRs to remove fission products and transuranic elements during operation potentially generates less long-lived nuclear waste.
