The Micro Modular Reactors MMR
\nThe Micro Modular Reactor (MMR) represents a new paradigm of Ultra Safe Nuclear power with intrinsic safety. The safety starts from its revolutionary ceramic fuel, that cannot melt and makes it impossible to release radioactive elements in the environment. The elimination of water as a heat transport fluid eliminates the possibility of chemical explosions. Uranium 238, that absorbs more neutrons at higher temperatures shuts down the chain reaction without damage even in case of coolant loss at full power. These characteristics make MMR ideal to provide heat process directly inside factories, to replace natural gas, and to provide power to small communities.\n
