Abstract Because of the excellent nuclear property, high thermal conductivity, high boiling point and chemical inertness of lead-bismuth alloy, the lead-bismuth fast breeder reactor, which use lead-bismuth alloy as the coolant, is one of the promising development prospects of Generation Ⅳ six type of reactors. Lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) coolant is corrosive to reactor structural materials, which is an important factor limiting the development of LBE cooled reactor. Oxygen dissolved into LBE controlled in a certain range is one of the effective approaches to carry out corrosion protection of structural materials in LBE environment, so it is required that the oxygen dissolved in lead-bismuth system must be controllable and measurable to ensure the safe operation of the reactor. In recent years, with the development of LBE cooled reactor, the key common technologies on material corrosion protection continue to break through. This paper summarizes the research progress of dissolved oxygen measurement and control technology for reactor structural materials corrosion protection, introduces the research status of oxygen measurement and oxygen control at home and abroad, and focuses on the comparison and analysis of the application prospects of different oxygen control modes for LBE cooled fast reactor. Finally, the development and application of oxygen measurement and control technology for lead-bismuth fast reactor are prospected.
