About BR2
Reactor BR2 (Belgian Reactor 2) is amongst the most powerful and flexible research reactors in the world. Since its start-up in 1962 the reactor has operated on uranium with pressurised water as coolant and moderator. BR2 has recently undergone a thorough maintenance and modernisation operation in order to continue its main activities in a safe and efficient way: nuclear material science and fuel research, production of radioisotopes and the irradiation of silicon.
