Environmental Nanotechnology
Environmental nanotechnology focuses on applications related to environmental remediation, including air disinfection and inactivation of pathogens on surfaces and biological media. We also develop a technology that uses atmospheric water to inactivate airborne bacteria, one of the safest ways to eliminate bacteria. Basic concepts of environmental nanotechnology, which might include these topics nanotechnology can affect our environment is by providing tools for cleaning up existing pollution. Identify and discuss one way in which nanotechnology may be used to clean up water pollution and what impact that might have on our world, nanotechnology can improve our environment is by enabling cleaner processes for the production of energy or materials. Application of Nanotechnology to Environmental Issues Generating less pollution during the manufacture of materials, Producing solar cells that generate electricity at a competitive cost, Increasing the electricity generated by windmills, Cleaning up organic chemicals polluting groundwater, Cleaning up oil spills, Clearing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air, Reducing the cost of fuel cells, Storing hydrogen for fuel cell powered cars, and many more.
Edelweiss publications maintaining the journal of Nanomaterial chemistry and technology which accepts all the original manuscripts related to Environmental Nanotechnology.
