  A nut graph is a simple graph whose adjacency matrix has the eigenvalue~0
with multiplicity~1 such that its corresponding eigenvector has no zero
entries. Motivated by a question of Fowler et al.~[\emph{Disc. Math. Graph
Theory} 40 (2020), 533--557] to determine the pairs $(n,d)$ for which a
vertex-transitive nut graph of order $n$ and degree $d$ exists, Ba\v si\'c et
al.\ [\arxiv{2102.04418}, 2021] initiated the study of circulant nut graphs.
Here we first show that the generator set of a circulant nut graph necessarily
contains equally many even and odd integers. Then we characterize circulant nut
graphs with the generator set $\{x,x+1,\dots,x+2t-1\}$ for $x,t\in\N$, which
generalizes the result of Ba\v si\'c et al.\ for the generator set
$\{1,\dots,2t\}$. We further study circulant nut graphs with the generator set
$\{1,\dots,2t+1\}\setminus\{t\}$, which yields nut graphs of every even order
$n\geq 4t+4$ whenever $t$~is odd such that $t\not\equiv_{10}1$ and
$t\not\equiv_{18}15$. This fully resolves Conjecture~9 from Ba\v si\'c et
al.~[ibid.]. We also study the existence of $4t$-regular circulant nut graphs
for small values of~$t$, which partially resolves Conjecture~10 of Ba\v si\'c
et al.~[ibid.].
