caption_attribution_description: Fast Breeder Reactor Monju in Japan Fukui
context_page_description: Monju was a Japanese sodium-cooled fast reactor, located near the Tsuruga Nuclear Power Plant, Fukui Prefecture. Its name is a reference to Manjusri.
  The reactor has been inoperative for most of the time since it was originally built. It was last operated in 2010 and is now definitely closed.
  Monju was a sodium cooled, MOX-fueled, loop-type reactor with three primary coolant loops, designed to produce 280 MWe from 714 MWt. It had a breeding ratio of approximately 1.2.
  The plant is located on a site that spans 1.08 km², the buildings occupy 28,678 m², and it has 104,680 m² of floor space.
