 PRINCIPLE
Nanotechnology involves working with matter at the
scale of one billionth of a matter. It refers to the
manipulation of matter on the minutest scale i.e.
atoms and molecules.

 Advantages of Nanotechnology

•Nano-structuring.

• Possible to convert house hold waste to useful.

• In medical field
• Pollution free environment.

•Extinct plants and animals reintroduced.

•Transport from lightweight material.

•Computers with massive memory.

 Disadvantages of Nanotechnology

 Nanotech particles will penetrate living cells .

Regulatory body to detect this potent.

Impact on environment is unknown.
 Presence of nano particles in the blood stream
trigger dangerous effects.
 New class of toxins or the environmental
problems may be created.
 Reaction of humans and existing environment to
these nanoparticles and nanobots and their
acceptance is not known.
 NANOTECHNOLOGY AND
ENVIRONMENT
Advances in nano science will lead to new means of:
 Reducing the production of wastes
Remediation of industrial contamination.
 Providing potable water
Improving the efficiency of energy production and use.
On the other hand, the introduction of large
quantities of nano structured materials into our society
may have unforeseen consequences for environmental
quality.

Nanotechnology with
all its challenges and
opportunities will
become a part of our
future.
The researchers are
optimistic for the
products based upon
this technology.
Nanotechnology is
slowly but steadily
ushering in the new
industrial revolution.
