The environmental impact of nanotechnology is the possible effects that the use of nanotechnological materials and devices will have on the environment. [20] As nanotechnology is an emerging field, there is debate regarding to what extent industrial and commercial use of nanomaterials will affect organisms and ecosystems.
Nano Energy is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering nanotechnology and energy. It was established in 2012 and is published by Elsevier. The editor-in-chief is Zhong Lin Wang (Georgia Institute of Technology).
Nanotechnology offers the potential of novel nanomaterials for the treatment of surface water, groundwater, wastewater, and other environmental materials contaminated by toxic metal ions, organic and inorganic solutes, and microorganisms. Due to their unique activity toward recalcitrant contaminants, many nanomaterials are under active research ...

Nanobiotechnology – intersection of nanotechnology and biology. [1] Ceramic engineering – science and technology of creating objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials. Materials science – interdisciplinary field applying the properties of matter to various areas of science and engineering. It investigates the relationship between the ...
The term is sometimes expanded to also include nanotechnology's health and environmental impact, but this article will only consider the social and political impact of nanotechnology. As nanotechnology is an emerging field and most of its applications are still speculative, there is much debate about what positive and negative effects that ...
Nanotechnology, a relatively new field of science and engineering, has shown promise to have a significant impact on the energy industry. Nanotechnology is defined as any technology that contains particles with one dimension under 100 nanometers in length. For scale, a single virus particle is about 100 nanometers wide.
