The usage of nanosystems, nanomaterials, nano-devices, etc. permeates all aspects of society. Cancer targeting and curing nanosystems are used in the biomedical and pharmaceutical industries; so are lightweight energy absorbing or blast-proof nanohybrid materials in the aerospace, automotive and marine industries, and high efficiency energy harvesting nanomaterials, etc. Nanotechnology Safety second edition continues to outline the safety, regulatory and environmental issues related to nanotechnology per industry, offering guidelines in assessing the risks, and discusses the legal and social-economical issues involved in order to help you to use in full all the capabilities of this technology in compliance with the current safety regulations. This new edition is fully revised and updated and provides in-depth information regarding new and current nanomaterials, their industrial applications, toxicity levels and protections systems in various fields. Nanotechnology Safety Second Edition remains an indispensable resource for academia and industries, providing detailed information on recent processes and nanosystems, the latest information about nanomanufacturing and their products for various industries, and information about legislative policies of nanomaterials, waste stream classifications, safety goals, processing facilities and market developments for new products. The book provides engineers, scientists, teachers, students, technicians, and policy makers with a general guide and information for future studies and manufacturing of nanomaterials.
