Zusammenfassung:The Russian fast reactor operating experience is very broadly summarized in this article. The fast reactors discussed include the BN-600, BBER-440, BBER-1000, and RBMK-1000. Power utilization factors are provided for these reactors for 1988 through 1992. Other topics discussed in the article include safety issues, possibilities for improved efficiency, ecological considerations, and efforts to create a closed fuel cycle. 10 refs., 1 tab.
