France (CEA and FRAMATOME) and Japan (JAEA, MHI and MFBR) have carried out studies to establish a common technical view regarding sodium-cooled fast reactor concept. Japan and France performed a common work to examine ways to develop a feasible common design concept, which could be built both in France and/or in Japan. This paper is providing a review of this joint synthesis on Sodium Fast Reactor design concept.
