Answer 3

A breeder reactor is a normal reactor with a few modifications.  A blanket of "future fuel" is placed around the core.  If you want to produce ("breed") Uranium-233 for use in a future core, that blanket is made from Thorium.  If you want Plutonium-239, you use depleted uranium (Uranium-238).  As the original core "burns", the neutron bombardment of the blanket converts some of it to the desired element.  When the reactor is refueled, the blanket can be processed to yield up its fresh fuel for recycle.  In a way, all non-military reactors are efficient breeders.  The majority of the uranium in the fuel is Uranium-238.  As the reactor operates, some of the U-238 is converted to Plutonium-239.  By the time a reactor is refueled, about 20% of the power is coming from that Plutonium.  That answers the question of whether or not we know how to use mixed fuel (a combination of Uranium and Plutonium).

Ignorance is bliss... leave it alone.

YOU don't.

afaik, the only country that actually built this technology is France.  And they aren't telling.
