Keywords:Molten Salt Fast Reactor, Generation IV, chloride fuel, inherent safety, TRU incineration, pyrochemical reprocessing

The Integral Molten Salt Fast Reactor (IMSFR) has been proposed, where molten salt chloride fuel is to be used. Researches have been made in terms of nuclear criticality, safety, TRU incineration, thermophysical properties of molten salt fuel, reprocessing of molten salt fuel, corrosion of materials etc.
