What is the coolant used in kalpakkam power station in India?

Kalpakkam has both Thermal reactor (Madras Atomic Power Station) and Fast Breeder Reactor -FBTR and PFBR (Under construction). In MAPS (thermal reactor) it is Heavy Water (D2O) Which acts as a coolant as well as moderator, where as in Fast Breeder Test Reactor (FBTR) and Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) Sodium (Na) is used as coolant. Since there should not any moderators for fast reactors D2O will not be used as coolant in fast reactors.

Location of prototype fast breeder reactor?

The advantage is mainly that more active fuel can be created than is used, so getting 'something for nothing'. However experimental reactors such as the sodium cooled fast reactor at Dounreay in Scotland have proved very difficult in practice, with material problems, and as far as I know such experiments are in abeyance at the moment.


Why moderator is not used in case of fast breeder reactor?

Moderator is not used in case of fast breeder reactor because there is no need to slow down neutron energy. Nuclear fission takes place at high energy of neutrons.
