The inherent safety aspect of Tokamark Power System Studies (TPSS) reactor blankets has been investigated. The idea is to design the blanket so safe that cost savings can be realized such as through non-nuclear grading construction. If the blanket materials are carefully selected, inherent safety is feasible for fusion reactor blankets up to 5–10 MW/m² neutron wall loading.
