Yes, it is a well known design concept, but has not been exploited in a commercial power plant yet. There is a possibility of this either in China or South Africa. See Wikipedia entry on 'Pebble bed reactor' for a description and discussion of future possibilities.

Different types of nuclear plants: Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR); Boiling Water Reactor (BWR); Heavy Water Moderated Reactor (CANDU); Advanced Gascooled Reactor (AGR); Fast Breeder Reactor (FBR); Pebble Bed Gascooled Reactor; Water Cooled Graphite Reactor (RBMK). There are other ideas that only exist on paper.

Packed bed reactors typically use either continuous flow or batch operation control schemes. Continuous flow control involves regulating reactant feed rates and temperature to maintain desired reactor conditions. Batch operation control focuses on monitoring and adjusting parameters (such as temperature and pressure) over a set time period for each batch of reactants.

A packed bed reactor is a type of chemical reactor where a solid catalyst is packed into a tube or vessel, and reactants flow through this catalyst bed. The reaction occurs on the surface of the solid catalyst, allowing for efficient heat and mass transfer. Packed bed reactors are commonly used in industries for various catalytic reactions due to their high surface area and effectiveness in heterogeneous catalysis.

Nuclear fission reactors come in various forms, though the principle of using the heat from a nuclear chain reaction is always the same.
1. Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR). 2. Boiling Water Reactor (BWR). 3. Magnox gas cooled reactor (no longer built) 4. Advanced gas cooled reactor (no longer built but still in use in UK). 5. Canadian heavy water reactor (Candu) 6. Russian design of Chernobyl type.
I think this covers the most used types for power generation. There are others such as the gas cooled pebble bed reactor, and the fast breeder reactor, that are possible but designs have not been so successful and these have not been adopted commercially.

The coolant in a nuclear is used to transfer the heat produced in the nuclear fuel to a steam generator to make steam. This cools the core of the reactor and couples out the thermal energy (heat) that we can use to make steam to generate electricity. We might also note that a gas turbine could potentially be used with a high temperature gas-cooled reactor like the proposed pebble bed design.

A fixed bed is a reactor system where the catalyst or other solid material is stationary and the reactants flow through it. The reactants come into contact with the fixed catalyst bed, undergo chemical reactions, and then exit the reactor. Fixed beds are commonly used in industrial processes such as catalytic cracking and hydrogenation.

The fuel in the pebble bed reactor (PBR) is permanently contained in the pebbles, and this will apply after discharge. Hence disposal of the spent fuel also implies disposal of the graphite and other material in the pebbles. It is not likely that any attempt to process the pebbles would be made. They would be stored in shielded repositories, on the station site at first and then in a geologically safe place for long term storage. This would be dry storage but some arrangement would be required to remove the decay heat. Since an array of pebbles is all that is needed for a critical assembly, consideration would have to be given to the geometry of storage, unless it can be shown that the depleted used fuel is always safe.
(Following part from Wikipedia)
Since the fuel is contained in graphite pebbles, the volume of radioactive waste is much greater, but contains about the same radioactivity when measured in becquerels per kilowatt-hour. The waste tends to be less hazardous and simpler to handle. Current US legislation requires all waste to be safely contained, therefore pebble bed reactors would increase existing storage problems. Defects in the production of pebbles may also cause problems. The radioactive waste must either be safely stored for many human generations, typically in a deep geological repository, reprocessed, transmuted in a different type of reactor, or disposed of by some other alternative method yet to be devised. The graphite pebbles are more difficult to reprocess due to their construction, which is not true of the fuel from other types of reactors. Proponents point out that this is a plus, as it is difficult to re-use pebble bed reactor waste for nuclear weapons.

It is not necessarily any of these, as "pebble" describes a grain size and does not say anything about composition. In most cases, though, a pebble is a mixture.
