Advanced High-Temperature Reactors (AHTRs) that have improved safety features and more efficient energy conversion systems constitute a new generation of nuclear power reactors. A molten-fluoride cooled version of the High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) offers the benefits of high thermodynamic efficiency, additional fission product containment, and several enhanced safety features (low-pressure operations, passive cooling).
