Based on feedback from existing reactors and current projects, the European Sodium Fast Reactor Safety Measures Assessment and Research Tools (ESFR SMART) project proposes an optimization of the secondary circuit with the main aim of improving safety. Besides, the optimization also leads to a simplification of the circuits and therefore to a reduction of the cost of the reactor. For the implementation of the proposed new design option, some points require further R&D to validate their feasibility.
