Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012045691A1] The invention relates to an improvement to an integrated SFR reactor as per application WO 2010/057720. According to the invention, the outlet windows (18) of the intermediate exchangers (16) are each surrounded by a shell (20) in fluid communication with a toroidal pipe (12), and each of the inlets of the pumping unit (30), which causes the sodium to flow from the hot area (12) to the cold area (14) through the intermediate exchangers, is in fluid communication with the torus, such that the primary sodium from the hot area exiting the intermediate exchangers flows through the torus so as to be directed towards the cold area by said pumping unit.
