NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) has launched a major two-year irradiation testing program in collaboration with MIT's Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering. The study, backed by over $500,000 in R&D investment from NANO Nuclear, will investigate the thermal and radiolytic behavior of nitrate molten salts ("solar salts") for nuclear applications.
Under the supervision of Prof. Koroush Shirvan, researchers will use MIT's Gammacell 220F Co-60 irradiator to study salt materials' behavior under gamma irradiation. The project employs advanced diagnostics including magnetic sector residual gas analyzer, laser flash analysis, and post-irradiation spectroscopic techniques to assess off-gassing behavior, thermal degradation, and material stability.
Set to conclude in 2027, this research aims to enhance understanding of molten salts in radiation environments, crucial for developing next-generation reactor designs and improving safety and performance models.

NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NNE) has received important approval from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for its Fuel Qualification Methodology Topical Report (FQM TR) for the KRONOS MMR™ Energy System. This regulatory milestone enables the deployment of a prototype reactor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
The approved methodology covers the qualification of Fully Ceramic Microencapsulated (FCM®) fuel, featuring tri-structural isotropic (TRISO) fuel particles in a silicon carbide matrix. This approval positions NANO Nuclear to submit its Construction Permit Application for the KRONOS reactor.
The KRONOS MMR project aims to be the first advanced microreactor on a U.S. university campus, serving as a national platform for research, training, and demonstration while providing clean energy to the university.
NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) has announced a major recruitment initiative focused on the Midwest region to support the construction and licensing of its full-scale KRONOS MMR Energy Systems in both the United States and Canada. The company is expanding its technical and project execution team as it transitions from design to commercial deployment of its proprietary stationary microreactor.
The recruitment drive coincides with upcoming geological characterization work at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) site, where the first KRONOS prototype will be constructed. The company is hiring across multiple disciplines including nuclear engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, civil engineers, project managers, QA/QC professionals, and regulatory affairs experts.
In parallel with the UIUC research reactor, NANO Nuclear is preparing to construct a KRONOS demonstration reactor in Canada under Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) oversight, establishing a second fully licensed KRONOS unit to facilitate commercialization across North America.
