Environmental Science-Nano

Environmental Science-Nano is a comprehensive source of information on nanomaterial interactions with biological and environmental systems, and the design and use of engineered nanomaterials for sustainability. Developing nanotechnology sustainably requires fundamental understanding of how nanomaterial properties affect their reactivity, environmental fate, and toxicity in a range of environmental and biological media/systems. Leveraging nanomaterials for sustainability requires understanding how nanomaterial properties can be controlled to optimise the benefits of a particular technology. Environmental Science-Nano covers the benefits and implications of nanoscience and nanotechnology on environmental and human health and the sustainable design, development and use of nanotechnologies. This includes the following. Rational design Life cycle implications Quantifying the benefits and risks of nanomaterial applications Biological uptake and ecotoxicity Novel applications for water, air, soil, food and energy Characterisation in biological and environmental media Nano-bio interactions Environmental fate, reactivity and transformations Environmental remediation
