    Fast breeder reactors are the least safe-Swaminomics-Mar 27 2011

      I would say Sodium cooled reactors are more dangerous than most other cooling schemes, but FBR's don't require sodium cooling - it offers lots of technical advantages, but also adds considerable risks. Like other types of reactors, the cooling of Fast Breeder Reactors can be accomplished with water or gas as well as with liquid metal - including lead, tin or special non-flammable alloys.

        Good idea. I think nuclear technology is not safe to be mass produced in a power plant. A blast in a French nuclear waste treatment facility left one dead Monday and injured four others. Regulatory experts say that the event brought on no radiation leaks. France depends on nuclear power more than any other country in the world.
