The Fast Breeder Reactor is a machine that generates large amounts of Steam (Super) from Water and Core Fuel for use in generators. And also, the reactor can enrich Blanket Fuel to Blanket Fuel (Enriched), which is used in the production of Core Fuel. Considering the lower process, produced Blanket Fuels (Enriched) are more than spent Core Fuels.

Power is generated by passing the output Steam (Super) through Super-pressure Turbines, High-pressure Turbines, and Low-pressure Turbines with their output shaft connected to Power Generators, typically Tier 2 variants of each. A majority of the Water can subsequently be recovered for reuse using a Cooling Tower (Large). Generated Steam (Super) can be also used to desalinate Seawater and produce Hydrogen. These two recipes has better energy efficiency than power generation.

Enrichment of Blanket Fuel

Enrichment of the Blanket Fuel has the same cycle time as the main recipe, that is, producing Steam (Super) by Core Fuel. And, 1.2 units of Blanket Fuels are enriched per cycle. To sums up, a total recipe of the reactor is following if its power level is X4.
