Kairos Power utilizes TRISO fuel in its small modular reactors (SMRs). TRISO stands for "TRi-structural ISOtropic particle fuel," which consists of tiny kernels of uranium, carbon, and oxygen that are encapsulated within protective layers of carbon and ceramic. This innovative design enhances safety, as each particle acts as its own containment system, making it highly resistant to corrosion, oxidation, and melting
The reactors developed by Kairos Power are cooled using a molten salt called Flibe, which is a mixture of fluorine, lithium, and beryllium. This cooling method allows the reactors to operate at higher temperatures than traditional water-cooled reactors, improving efficiency and safety by enabling low-pressure operation
